Oakland_Raiders3

The Oakland Raiders will take on the Detroit Lions in their next game on the NFL 2015 football schedule at a time when one team is a surprise mild playoff contender but is mired in a sudden losing streak, and the other team is a surprise non-factor but is coming off a key victory. The Raiders have a 4-5 record under quarterback Derek Carr and new head coach Jack Del Rio, while the Lions are just 2-7 for the year under the regime of Jim Caldwell and Matthew Stafford.

Oakland is coming off consecutive losses, most recently to Minnesota by a 30-14 final score, and now the team looks to get back on track. This comes even amid rumors that the team may move to Los Angeles at season’s end, though a stadium effort in the Bay Area is underway. Detroit is coming off a shocking win over contender Green Bay by an 18-16 score, giving the Lions some hope. But after being a playoff team themselves last year, they’re still trying to figure out what happened.

The Oakland Raiders vs Detroit Lions NFL football game has a start time schedule of 1:00pm eastern time this Sunday and will air on TV channel CBS in some markets.
