100%...they needed to convince the Vegas/Nevada politicians that they were inheriting a "winner"...not some perennial sad sack dumpster franchise being offloaded on their city. Nevada wasn't receptive in the beginning of these talks...
They went back to 6-10 in 2017...and were 7-9 the year before this political charade.
Fast-forward to 2021..the first season w/ fans in their new stadium...guess who made the post season by a series of miracles...including one of the most ridiculous PI calls you'll ever see...delivered by Clete Blakeman. Raiders had 6 wins as time expired.
