The 2005 Oakland Raiders season, their second under head coach Norv Turner, was highlighted by the blockbuster acquisition of superstar wide receiver Randy Moss and the emergence of Derrick Burgess, who earned a Pro Bowl selection after leading the NFL with 16 sacks. Despite a 4-12 record, the team showcased a high-powered vertical passing attack and celebrated notable victories over the Cowboys, Bills, and Redskins, while running back LaMont Jordan and wide receiver Randy Moss both surpassed the 1,000-yard milestone in their respective categories.
