Las Vegas Raiders

The Raiders have long been the NFL's outlaw franchise, an identity built on the silver and black, the skull-and-crossbones shield, and a swashbuckling, us-against-the-world attitude instilled by the late Al Davis. Now playing in the futuristic Allegiant Stadium on the Las Vegas Strip after stops in Oakland and Los Angeles, the Raiders bring a rebellious, deep-pocketed fanbase (the 'Raider Nation') wherever they go. The franchise's motto, 'Just Win, Baby,' still captures a team built around aggressive, vertical football and a refusal to play by anyone else's rules. Few fanbases travel and tailgate with the same intensity.

Founded in 1960 as a charter member of the American Football League, the Raiders struggled early before Al Davis took over as head coach in 1963 and built the franchise into an AFL powerhouse. The Raiders won three Super Bowl titles: Super Bowl XI (1976 season) over Minnesota, Super Bowl XV (1980 season) over Philadelphia, and Super Bowl XVIII (1983 season) over Washington, the latter powered by Hall of Famer Marcus Allen. The team relocated from Oakland to Los Angeles in 1982, back to Oakland in 1995, and finally to Las Vegas in 2020, but the swagger of the Davis era has remained the franchise's throughline.
