    Maxx Crosby addresses shoving Raiders assistant coach during Week 6 loss

    The Las Vegas Raiders dropped to 2-4 after a pitiful 32-13 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday. Las Vegas was completely outplayed and outcoached in every aspect of the game and has now lost three out of its last four games.

    The Raiders' defense allowed 32 points but was put in horrible situations by the offense due to turnovers and special teams mishaps. Still, Patrick Graham's unit struggled to contain Pittsburgh's rushing attack, as the Steelers ran for 183 yards and three touchdowns while averaging 5.2 yards per carry.

    During the Raiders' frustrating loss, a video of superstar edge rusher Maxx Crosby was taken out of context. Crosby was seen shoving linebackers coach and running game coordinator Mike Caldwell on the sideline, and many speculated that the Pro Bowl defender was taking out his frustration on the assistant coach.

    However, Crosby quickly put an end to the baseless speculation, tweeting that he loves Caldwell and that the little shove was a "love push."

    Now that that's been cleared up, the attention turns squarely to the major issues the Raiders have.

    The Davante Adams trade saga still needs to be decided, the quarterback situation is an unmitigated disaster after Aidan O'Connell stunk it up in Week 6, and head coach Antonio Pierce doesn't seem cut out for the job.

    With the trade deadline approaching, general manager Tom Telesco could look to trade some of his veteran assets for draft capital. The Raiders aren't going anywhere this year and are headed toward a top-10 draft pick.

    Las Vegas will look to end a two-game losing streak next Sunday as the team travels to SoFi Stadium to take on the Los Angeles Rams.
