In a dominating performance, the Las Vegas Raiders topped the New York Jets 63-28 in Week 8 of the 2026 season. This victory keeps the Raiders firmly in the playoff hunt, showcasing their offensive prowess against a struggling Jets team. Quarterback Fernando Mendoza was the star of the night for Las Vegas, throwing for an impressive 447 yards and seven touchdowns, solidifying his status as one of the league's elite signal-callers. He connected with standout receiver Dont'e Thornton Jr., who racked up 205 receiving yards, while Mike Washington Jr. added a powerful ground game with 109 rushing yards, contributing to the Raiders' explosive offensive output. Defensively, the Raiders made their presence felt, with Treydan Stukes picking off three passes, which played a crucial role in stifling any momentum the Jets hoped to build. The game turned decisively in the Raiders' favor when Stukes' first interception led to an immediate touchdown, widening the gap and leaving the Jets scrambling to catch up. Despite David Bailey's solid performance for New York, including three sacks and four tackles, the Raiders' relentless offense proved too much to handle.
