Week 5: Divisional Matchup #1 RAIDERS vs. Denver Broncos Q-by-Q Reaction

Q4:

DEN 16 OAK 10

As if last week's game was a stinger, this one hurts as much. With a bad game Peyton Manning and the Broncos' offense and Charles Woodson absolutely going off and grabbing 2 INTs, you just think that the Raiders had a chance for a very big upset. It just didn't happen and this game was plagued by multiple missed opportunities. Two missed field goals by Sebass, a pick 6 by Carr late in the quarter, conservative play calling all-around on the offensive side of the ball, just too many mistakes. Stay tuned for the full recap.

Q3:

DEN 9 OAK 7

Charles Woodson is just amazing. He seriously doesn't look like he's 39 years old. But other than that, a little disappointed that the offense became too conservative after dominating the time of possession most of the game. A fumble committed since no one accounted for Von Miller, quick 3 and outs, those allowed the Broncos to get back into the game. But, it's still a pretty good game out there.

Q2:

DEN 3 OAK 7

Peyton Manning has eluded Charles Woodson for 18 years. You can kiss that streak goodbye as C-Wood came up with a big INT to keep the Broncos' score at three. It's a good, competitive game. Many expected for Denver to run away early, but the Raiders are making this a game. Onto the halftime report.

Q1:

DEN 0 OAK 0

A tight, defensive conclusion to the 1st quarter. That Denver defense is definitely no joke, they are number one for a reason. The Raiders, I think, had the ball for a majority of this quarter, but they couldn't cash in. They had a chance on a Sebass field goal, but the Broncos' special teams managed to get a hand on it. Now, Peyton is driving and once again, the Raiders' defense is on their heels.
