The Las Vegas Raiders are gearing up to face the Atlanta Falcons in a crucial Monday Night Football matchup, aiming to break a nine-game losing streak. The Falcons, also struggling, have issues with ball security, particularly with quarterback Kirk Cousins' turnovers.

While the Falcons can score heavily when on form, averaging 30 points in wins, they drop to just 14 points in losses. The Raiders need to protect their quarterback, whether it's Desmond Ridder or Aidan O’Connell, as the Falcons have struggled to pressure quarterbacks this season.

Key strategies for the Raiders include targeting the Falcons’ weaker coverage linebackers and exploiting mismatches in the secondary. To secure a win, they must convert drives into touchdowns and effectively utilize their offensive weapons.
