The Neutral Zone: Are the Raiders For Real?  
Podcast: The Ken Carman Show with Anthony Lima
Published On: Tue Sep 29 2026
Description: Ken and Lima dig into the 3-0 Raiders and Kirk Cousins turning back the clock, but they doubt it lasts given wins over the Dolphins, Chargers, and Saints and a brutal upcoming stretch that starts with the Chiefs. They note how well veteran quarterbacks like Case Keenum, Aaron Rodgers, and Marcus Mariota are playing, while Lima defends Nick Sirianni as the Eagles offense sputters. They also rank the seven disappointing teams below .500, with the Patriots and Drake Maye's Super Bowl hangover and the Chargers topping the surprise list.
