FINAL: Las Vegas Raiders 20, Green Bay Pakcers 17
Moving the chains
The Packers had a clear mission to establish the run, and Jordan Love got in on that action on this play action call. The 26-yard scamper helped the Packers take a 3-0 advantage in the first quarter.
Raiders take the lead!
The Raiders gambled and won on a fourth down play in the second quarter, and it paid huge dividends for the squad as they were able to parlay it into the game’s first TD.
Captain speaking
The Raiders put a lot of trust into Robert Spillane, for good reason. He kept momentum on Vegas’ side by picking off Jordan Love’s first pass attempt after LV’s score.
The Packers defense hung tough to hold the Raiders to three after the pick.
Solid start
Green Bay came out with aggression to open the second half, as it was quickly able to tie the game. First, Rudy Ford jumped in front of a Jimmy G pass to give his quad the ball in plus territory …
… Before AJ Dillon plowed in the tying score on the ground.
Find the speedster!
Both Jordan Love and Christian Watson have wheels for days, and the latter made magic after hauling in this catch for a scintillating 77-yard gain. It helped G.B. take a 13-10 edge.
Give it to Jacobs
10 plays and 75 yards later, Jacobs helped Vegas recapture the lead with a two-yard run for six.
Turnover central
Is what Spillane has made himself after making off with another INT, aided by a tough tip-away by Marcus Peters.
That’s it!
Call him Air Amik. The 5-foot-9 corner got some serious hang time as he leapt into the air to steal the Raiders’ third interception of the game, as well as L.V.’s second win of the season.
PREGAME
Beast mode’s in the building!
Talk about talent. Marshawn Lynch and Josh Jacobs were seen speaking as Jacobs got ready for the matchup.
Brothers in arms
Daniel and Anders Carlson shared a moment before the game, as the two prepared to become the first pair of brothers to kick in the same game since 1987.
Adams time
Davante Adams said he treats all games the same, but one has to believe he’ll have a little extra juice for his former team. His pregame outfit was certainly dripping.
