    Raiders surrender a kickoff return right after that - wow. Awful.

    20-14, Vikings.

    Huge turn of events after that TD to put the Raiders on top.

    Fortunately, they missed that FG at the end of the half.

    20-14, Minnesota.

    Oakland will get the ball in the second half.

    Short takes...

    - that kickoff return for the TD swung momentum.
    - defense hung in there while the offense struggled until it finally broke
    - Carr's interceptions were just great plays by Newman.
    - why Crabtree wasn't targeted more?
    - the loss of Hudson was felt.
    - still feel good about this team while it is learning to play together.
    - Denver lost and look vulnerable, Packers aren't setting the NFL on fire either.
    - Kansas City looking good or is it Detroit and Denver's ineptitude?

    I hope so. Would love to see him come back with Oakland regardless, but if he's out for a whole year, that D is screwed.

    Shoddy start from Oakland. Down 6-0, haven't gotten anything going on offense.

    Seeing how Tracy Porter has played well for Chicago brings me some level of annoyance at the front office.

    17-6 after Carr's second TD - this one to Roberts on a powerful, tackle breaking catch and run.

    This new kickoff returner might've just lost his job.

    Raiders up 17-6 at the half, now up only 17-14, with the Titans taking over in the Oakland red zone.

    We're in the fourth. Raiders need a dub.

    Wow. Big penalty extends Oakland's drive. Carr tosses his third TD pass on the day.

    We're 5-6, and we're playing for something that matters. We have a real shot against KC. Need that W to pull to .500 and put it on a divisional rival.

    It's a home game so there's some comfort level. Chiefs have a good defense and their offense is clicking even without Charles.
