2024 Fargo Oilers Season

The 2024 Fargo Oilers Season was the eighth season of the Oilers as a club in the Valiant Football League, and was the third season under head coach Tyler Roehl. It was the eighth season of the Oilers playing their home games at the Fargodome.
The Oilers would start the season winless, going 0-6 before opting to bench quarterback Ty Gangi in favour of rookie quarterback Justin Miller ahead of their Week 7, Friday Night Football game against the Atlanta Bravehearts, which they would lose 24-42. The Oilers would remain winless throughout the first nine weeks of the season, going 0-8 before finally winning their first game of the season in a Week 10 home game against the Seattle Avengers by a score of 31-28. They would carry on under the lead of Justin Miller before benching him in favour of installing Theo Day as their third starting quarterback of the season for a Week 16 loss to the St. Louis Eagles by a score of 29-36.
The Oilers became the first team to be eliminated from playoff contention, being knocked out of the playoff race following a Week 17, Sunday Night Football loss to the Orlando Crusaders, 17-28. The Oilers would finish the season with an upset victory over division rivals the Kansas City Core, finishing the season with a 3-16 record and finishing at the bottom of the league, and suffering the worst season in the club's history.
