Q4

OAK 14 HOU 27

Sorry guys, I'm gonna have to take myself out early in this 4th quarter. I have somewhere to be in a few minutes, but the open thread will still be available until the end of the game. Regardless what happens in this game, it has been a magical season to remember. This is just the beginning after breaking a 14-year playoff drought. I'm proud of this team for bringing the greatness of the Raiders back. I'll be back for the full recap in a couple of hours. 

Q3

OAK 7 HOU 20 

This was a brutal quarter to watch. None of the teams put up points, but the Raiders couldn't put up anything to swing the momentum in their favor. Connor Cook is getting rattled out there. With the O-line banged up and the receivers getting shut out, this offense is a sitting duck out there. The defense is doing its job, but they're getting winded out there for being on the field too much. If this score holds up, this is going to be a moral victory here.
