Portland Trail Blazers star Damian Lillard has supported the Las Vegas Raiders franchise through the years, and while his fandom won't change, it seems he's tired of all the losing this 2021 season.
After the Raiders suffered another embarrassing loss in Week 11 against the Cincinnati Bengals, Lillard took his frustrations to Twitter. The Blazers star didn't hold back his thoughts as he declared he might be done watching the team this campaign.
“I think I’m done watching the Raiders this season,” Lillard wrote.
It's hard to blame Damian Lillard for his reaction, though. After all, even the most loyal fans will get frustrated with how the Raiders have played so far. Despite a hot start to the campaign that saw them win three straight–including a brilliant 33-27 OT victory over the Baltimore Ravens in the opener–they are just 5-5 on the season.
With Sunday's loss to the Bengals, the Raiders have now lost three straight as well and have dropped to third in the AFC West–a bit behind the 7-4 Kansas City Chiefs.
Of course all hope is not lost for the Raiders, but with Patrick Mahomes and his Chiefs on a roll, they have to be perfect if they want any chance to winning the division, let alone making the postseason.
By the looks of it, Lillard will only probably watch the Raiders again if they make the playoffs with the remaining games.
