Prime Time Dud: Raiders Fall to Denver...Again

Being that the Broncos are my favorite AFC West rival to hate, I guess I should get used to this as long as Peyton Manning is around. It's been a frustrating season overall an it just didn't get better with this loss to an AFC West rival. Carson Palmer, throwing too much yet again completed 19 of 30 passes for 273 yards connecting 2 TDs and allowed only 1 INT, but what a mess. Even though there were good goal line stands by the defense, the game goes on the offense for failing to put points on the board early; that costed the Raiders to lose to the AFC West runaway leader, Broncos 26-13 as Denver sweeps the Raiders in divisional match ups. Darren McFadden, welcome back, but ZBS is still killing you rushed for 52 on 11 carries and scored his first TD back on a 6 yard reception and Rod Streater lead the team in reception with 4 for 100 yards.

Final Score: vs. Denver 26-13 [L]

Next Game: vs. Kansas City (12/16/12)
