I was thinking more along the lines, as Vegas hosting a super bowl event, the Raiders need to fix their defense if they want to go to a super bowl.

They're in Oakland for at least the next two years, maybe three. Maybe, they win a Super Bowl in the next few years.
What if they win a SB in Levi's( if they share the stadium)?

Did OAK really have a "shovel ready, fully financed" stadium proposal? This is according to Libby Shaaf.

People saying this thread should be locked do realize that they are still the Oakland Raiders, right?
They won't be the Las Vegas Raiders until 2019 or 2020, depending on where they play in 2019.

It is such a joke that the NFL looks to communities to finance facilities for their multi-billion dollar industry.

This is terrible.
Oakland isn't a legacy franchise. The raiders are. Vegas will now be the 4th city they've played in.
Won't Vegas be the third city for the Raiders?
Is Candlestick in San Francisco or South San Francisco? The 49ers could be on city #3 as well.

I can't wait until they are out of town and the Niners completely own the bay.

The raiders started in SF. Then oak, then LA, then oak, and soon Vegas. 4th city.
Kezar and candlestick are both in SF. Santa Clara is the 2nd city for the Niners.

Raiders: 5 cities (1 game @ Berkeley in '73 due to sched conflict with A's)
49ers also had to play a game in Stanford once due to '89 earthquake damage to the 'Stick
