The 1986 Los Angeles Raiders season was their 27th in the league. They were unable to improve upon the previous season's output of 12–4, winning only eight games.[1] The team failed to qualify for the playoffs for the first time in five seasons. This would also be Ray Guy's final season of his Hall of Fame career with the Raiders.
The 1986 season was marked by highly competitive games (only four of the Raiders' sixteen regular season games were decided by more than a touchdown). The campaign also marked the end of storied quarterback Jim Plunkett's career. After starting the season 0–3, the Raiders proceeded to win eight of their next nine games. A loss to Philadelphia in overtime started a spiral for the Raiders, who lost the next three games, which included a blowout loss to Seattle and a loss to Kansas City (who edged out Seattle for a playoff spot with ten wins) where the Raiders had seven turnovers and still lost by three points.
