Week 8: Florida Road Trip 2/2 - RAIDERS @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers 2nd Half Open Thread and Discussion


Here is the 2nd half open thread and discussion post of the Raiders-Bucs matchup. Leave a comment below the post on your thoughts of the game.

OT

OAK 30 TB 24

Seth Roberts...you are the man to end that game the way it did! So many ways the Raiders almost threw that game away to lose their first road game of the season. Missed field goals by Sebass. Setting the record for most penalties. But I don't know how they did it. The most stressful game of the season for sure. 5-0 on the road! I'll be back for the full recap post. I gotta take some meds or something. 

Q4

OAK 24 TB 24

Two key plays highlighted the end of that 4th quarter. The wide open dropped pass by Coop and Sebass misses the game-winning field goal. How long my heart can take this pounding? I don't know. But, man the Raiders had a pair of chances to win in regulation in what is a penalty *profane* fest. We head into OT, let's see if the Raiders can notch another W on the road.

Q3

OAK 17 TB 10

I'm happy about the fact the Raiders made the necessary adjustments and got back into this game with with 17 unanswered points. But, these penalties. Completely unacceptable when the team has the momentum in this half. Now, King shanked a punt to give the Bucs good field position and they have all the momentum to tie this up. Offense and defense has played lights out till the last few minutes of this quarter.
