Currently, I don't really think there are any out-of-division rivalries, however, I'd love to see a rivalry with Cleveland spark up over the next few years.

 

Baker vs. Josh

2.5 hour drive - Both teams have passionate fan bases that will make that trip easily

Teams that have been down on their luck for the past decade that could now be on the upswing if everything pans out

Great stat. I also believe that is the worst playoff loss in Raiders history still. I checked and they've had 2 regular season losses by margins of 55-0 and 52-0, I think those are the only worse games.

not good at all

They've played two meaningful games in 20 years.

And the games are chippy in our last 3 meetings in 2 years and I hate them.

Outside of the obvious ones in our division, what other teams would you consider to be rivals?

 

For me personally:

 

  • Jacksonville. Marrone, Dareus, Ramsey talking crap about Allen and of course knocking us out of the playoffs. I'm sure the fistfight that happened this year will only strengthen that.
  • Tennessee. Music City Travesty. The whole Bud Adams middle finger deal. Some might say the comeback, but I pin things like that on Houston, even though they're technically a different team.

Not sure I'd consider Dallas a rivalry anymore. Yeah, they beat us in two Super Bowls. But it's not like they "stole it" from us. But neither team has done anything special in years. With all the former players/coaches/FO staff, I can see a friendly rivalry budding with Carolina. There's also a friendly one with Cleveland. The whole small, cold city, loyal, blue collar fanbase, but mostly lousy teams the past few years. 

Agree on the Titans.  Add to the fact so many of those games over the years were lost on 4th down plays.  2006 and 2012 for example.

The 2015 game where Tyrod ran all over the place on them really felt good as it was the first Titans win since 2000

I would say some AFC teams. I know we had an awesome winning streak against the bUNgLeS that was over like ten years. That ended in 2011 I believe. Also, maybe the Browns since they are close to Buffalo and and comparable in many ways.

I agree with the tennessee rivalry. Ralph wilson getting flipped off showed a deeper meaning for the former owners of the franchises... Also the Jacksonville fight showed our other rivalry
