Note: This is the 9th time in Raiders history that they've started the year 0-2 since the league went to a 16 game schedule in '78. (2012, 2007, 2006, 2005, 1997, 1996, 1994, 1992, 1986) The most total wins they had in any of those years was nine (in 1994). The least total wins was two (in 2006).
Also note however that in 1987, the Raiders started the year 3-0, but won only 2 more games the rest of the way, for a total of 5 wins. That got Tom Flores fired.
