[1] In May 1982, a lawsuit brought by the Raiders and the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum in 1980 concluded, with the jury determining that the NFL violated antitrust laws when it rejected the proposed move by the team from Oakland to Los Angeles.
The Raiders promptly moved to Los Angeles, although for the 1982 season, the team continued to practice in Oakland.
Despite the Raiders' disappointing 7–9 record in their previous season—their last in Oakland until 1995—the team cruised to an 8–1 record in the strike-shortened 1982 season, winning all four of their home games and clinching home-field advantage throughout the NFL's makeshift playoff tournament for 1982.
However, in the second round of the playoffs, the Raiders blew a fourth-quarter lead to the sixth-seeded Jets, losing 17–14.
