The Las Vegas Raiders are not happy with the way the Baltimore Ravens played during their season-opening Monday Night Football showdown. In fact, the team has reportedly filed a complaint to the NFL for the dirty tricks of their visitors.

According to Vic Tafur of The Athletic, the Raiders are particularly complaining about hits on wide receiver Hunter Renfrow that are deemed to be dirty. To support their claim, Las Vegas is said to compile video evidences of multiple “after-the-play and away-from-the ball hits.”

While some would point out that the Raiders are whining too much, especially with the highly physical nature of the sport, their concern for the health and safety of their players are understandable. After all, they were already down with several men after the injuries to Marcus Mariota, Yannick Ngakoue and Gerald McCoy during the contest.

With that said, it's not surprising why the Raiders filed a complaint to the NFL against the Ravens in a bid to prevent such thing from happening again and keep their players injury-free.

The Raiders won the contest in thrilling fashion, coming back in the fourth quarter after being down 17-10 and forcing overtime. A Derek Carr 31-yard touchdown pass to Zay Jones completely sank the Ravens, who thought they were on their way to victory after a clutch drive from Lamar Jackson in the final two minutes of regulation.

It remains to be seen how the league will respond to the Raiders' complaint, but if the team has enough evidence to make their case, then it certainly won't be long before the NFL addresses the issue.
