What happened: Las Vegas travels to the East Coast for a Week 8 regular-season contest at MetLife Stadium following a 35-21 defeat on Oct. 25. That result extended the club's losing streak to four games and placed the Raiders 10th in the conference standings.

Why it matters: At one game under .500 approaching the Nov. 10 NFL trade deadline, the cross-country trip carries immediate weight for Las Vegas's playoff positioning. Stopping the four-game slide is essential to staying within striking distance of the conference wild-card tier.

By the numbers: Las Vegas holds a 3-4 record, sits at the No. 10 seed, and carries a four-game losing streak after surrendering 35 points on Oct. 25.

What to watch: Week 8 injury designations and final practice participation reports will determine the active game-day roster at MetLife Stadium.
