Thirty-Two Franchises: Las Vegas Raiders

Began in the AFL in 1960; joined the NFL for the 1970 Season.

All-Time Record:  509-480-11 (.515)

1960-1981:  Oakland Raiders:  195-110-11 (.638)
1982-1994:  Los Angeles Raiders:  118-82-0 (.590)
1995-2019:  Oakland Raiders:  160-240-0 (.400)
2020-2025:  Las Vegas Raiders:  36-48-0 (.429)

This is the only time you will see me use their current name.  To me, they will always be "Oakland."

At the end of the 1994 season, the Raiders had an all-time record of 313-192-11 (.617).  Today, none of the 32 existing franchises has an all-time winning percentage higher than .574.

Top Passer:  Derek Carr (35,222 yds)
Top Rusher:  Marcus Allen (8,545 yds)
Top Receiver:  Tim Brown (14,734 yds)
Top Coach:  John Madden (103 wins)

Top All-Time Player Based on Approximate Value:  Jim Otto (AV of 163)

Otto was a ten-time All-Pro.  He was an All-Pro in every season from 1960 to 1970, with the exception of 1966.  In 1966, he was a second-team All-Pro.
