Winning is suddenly the new normal in Las Vegas after two straight wins, most recently against the Saints on Sunday. Of course, that won't offset all the losses the Raiders suffered before their modest resurgence.

This latest loss dropped the Saints to 5-11, with the Raiders improving to 4-12. New Orleans also ended their home record at a lowly 3-6. They failed to score over 20 offensive points in seven of their last eight home outings, averaging only 17.5 offensive points at home since a season opening rout of the Carolina Panthers.

Las Vegas frustrated the Saints after halftime. The Raiders shut out the Saints in the second half as they picked off New Orleans quarterback Spencer Rattler twice in the fourth quarter. Las Vegas defensive backs Thomas Harper and Jack Jones came up with the two takeaways.
