Las Vegas Raiders coach Klint Kubiak offered an endorsement of defensive coordinator Rob Leonard despite the team’s historic run of surrendering points.

“I stand behind Rob. I stand behind our defensive staff. I stand behind our players,” Kubiak said during Monday’s news conference at the team facility in Henderson. “I think the world wants someone’s head on a platter every time things don’t go right, but the way I see it is we brought people here for a reason to get a job done and develop players for the long haul and that’s where we’re going.”

Leonard’s defense has allowed at least 30 points in six consecutive games, tying a modern-day NFL record.

That includes Sunday’s 38-17 road loss to the San Francisco 49ers.

“I have belief in the scheme we run, and I have belief in the coaches who run it,” Kubiak said. “I have belief in our playcaller. I have belief in the players to execute. But as a group, as coaches and players, it’s about putting four quarters of football together, no matter the opponent.”
