Las Vegas Raiders’ quarterback padded stats late in games
Let’s call it the Waste Managment Offense.
Geno Smith was a star of it in 2025. Of course, that’s about the only thing Smith starred in during his first (and very probably only) season as the quarterback of the Las Vegas Raiders.
According to the information, Smith was among the NFL league leading quarterbacks in passing yards during garbage time. Smith, according to this information, threw for 736 passing yards when the game was out of reach in 2025. It was the third most in the league last season.
Yes, the 3-14 Raiders were blown out a lot in 2025, but it is telling that Smith accounted for nearly a quarter of his total season passing yards during garbage time.
Here’s to the Raiders and Fernando Mendoza playing meaningful downs in 2026.
