 Still playing in Oakland the Raiders entered the season with a new Quarterback after acquiring Dan Pastorini from the Houston Oilers for Kenny Stabler.
 However Pastorini struggled and the Raiders got off to a 2-3 when Pastorini was injured and replaced by Jim Plunkett.
 Plunkett proved right for the Raiders offense.

The 1991 Los Angeles Raiders season was their 32nd in the National Football League (NFL).
 They were unable to improve upon their previous season's output of 12–4, winning only nine games.
 After a 9-4 start, the team lost its last three games, but did qualify for the playoffs for the second straight season.
 The Raiders were inconsistent offensively, with struggling quarterback Jay Schroeder eventually benched in favor of rookie Todd Marinovich.
 It was notable that future Hall of Famer Marcus Allen's role was restricted mainly to backing up newly acquired Roger Craig, and future All-Pro Tim Brown also played mostly as a reserve, starting only one game.
 The loss of Bo Jackson to a career-ending inury also clearly had an impact.
 A solid defense was led by Howie Long, Greg Townsend (13 sacks) and another acquisition from Northern California as the Raiders played in LA and not Oakland as some people have forgotten , Ronnie Lott (8 interceptions).
