2010 Oakland Raiders season

The 2010 Oakland Raiders season was the team's 41st season in the National Football League (NFL) and their 51st overall. It also marked the last full season under the ownership of Al Davis, who died in October 2011. The Raiders had improved from a five-win season, their first since 2002, and achieved their first non-losing season since losing Super Bowl XXXVII on January 26, 2003. However, the team missed the playoffs for the eighth consecutive season. The Raiders picked 8th in the 2010 NFL Draft. There were no blacked-out home games after the early part of the season and the team won all six of their division matches, including a then-franchise-record 59 points in Denver. The Raiders became the first team in NFL history to go undefeated in their division and still not make the playoffs.

The season was notable not only because the Raiders swept their division, but every victory came against a rival. The Raiders recorded home victories against the Seattle Seahawks, their former division foes from 1977to2001, and the St. Louis Rams, whom the Raiders used to have a rivalry with during their time in Los Angeles from 1982to1994.

After finishing the 2009 season with a record of 5–11, the Raiders got the 8th overall pick in the 2010 NFL Draft. They had an additional third round pick acquired in a trade with the New England Patriots for defensive end Derrick Burgess. Their sixth round pick was traded to the Carolina Panthers as part of a deal that gave the Raiders a seventh round pick in the 2009 NFL Draft.

Scoring continued in the first quarter with a 4-yard pass from Campbell to Jacoby Ford; and gave the Raiders an early 14–0 lead over the Chargers. The second quarter started with a 9-play, 48 yard drive that ended on a 39-yard field goal by Nate Kaeding, giving San Diego its first points of the game. Oakland answered with a rushing touchdown by Michael Bush, extending the lead to 21–3. The first half closed on a missed field goal by Kaeding.

The Raiders also swept the season series from the Chargers for the first time since 2001, and snapped a seven-game losing streak at Qualcomm Stadium.

The Raiders were favored by an impeding Chargers offense who struggled to control the game clock and establish a ground game; while the Raiders struggled with penalties and defensive miscues, mostly on the secondary.

The Raiders' final game was an AFC West rivalry rematch against the Chiefs. They trailed early as kicker Ryan Succop nailed a 30-yard field goal, but overcame the deficit with QB Jason Campbell completing a 5-yard TD pass to WR Chaz Schilens, followed by kicker Sebastian Janikowski hitting a 38-yard field goal.

With the win, the Raiders finish the season with an 8–8 record, but not good enough to retain Tom Cable as head coach. Not long after the regular season ended, the Raiders chose not to exercise their option to retain Cable, thus he was released from the Raider organization.

The first four games of the season were blacked out for Oakland with crowds under 50,000, and a season low of just over 32,000 in a game against Houston. But, big wins against Denver and Seattle for the Raiders led to an increase in ticket sales for the Week 9 match-up against the Chiefs, which was sold out and was the only Raiders home game televised in the market in 2010 (ironically, the Chiefs are actually the Raiders' easternmost division rivals).
