Raiders Beat Seattle In Thriller 40-34

By Barbara Mason

Sunday afternoon the Las Vegas Raiders (3-7) traveled to Lumen Field taking on the Seattle Seahawks (6-4).

The Seahawks got up on the board early, at 14:32 in the opening quarter. Kenneth Walker 111 rushed for 12 yards and the touchdown. The extra point was good and Seattle had the early 7-0 lead. At 9:24 the Raiders tied up the game when Derek Carr connected with Ameer Abdullah for 18 yards. That extra point was good and the game was tied at 7-7. The Seahawks would take the lead into the second quarter. A James Myers 24 Yd Field Goal gave Seattle a 10-7 advantage.

The Seahawks extended their lead in the second quarter when Myers kicked his second field goal of the game, this one for 34 yards giving Seattle a 13-7 lead. The second quarter would prove to be a wild affair. The Raiders took the lead at 10:02 14-13. Derek Carr found Mack Hollins for 36 yards and the touchdown. Las Vegas struck again at 8:29 scoring yet another touchdown. Josh Jacobs got loose for a 30 yards romp downfield into the end zone giving the Raiders a 21-13 lead.

With 5:21 left in the second quarter Seattle’s Tyler Lockett caught a Geno Smith pass for 35 yards. The extra point was good and the Seahawks trailed 20-21. Las Vegas would extend their lead with ten seconds left on the clock in the half. Daniel Carlson made a 36 yard field goal giving the Raiders a 24-20 lead at the half.

The Seahawks scored a touchdown in the third quarter taking the lead 27-24. Kenneth Walker III scored his second touchdown of the game, this time a 12 yard rush for the score. The Raiders would tie up this game at 27 when Daniel Carlson made a 27 Yd Field goal.

The game was knotted at 27-27 going into the fourth quarter. Seattle would score late in the quarter taking a 34-27 lead. Geno Smith connected with Travis Homer for 18 yards and the score.

With 1:54 left in the game the Raiders struck pay dirt to tie up this game once again. Foster Moreau caught a five yard pass from Derek Carr for the touchdown and we had a 34-34 game. There was 1:02 left in regulation when Seattle went back to work. The Seahawks failed to move the ball and the game would go into overtime.

At 4:09 in overtime the Raiders kicker Carlson missed a 37 yard field goal. With 1:19 left Seattle was forced to punt and Las Vegas had one last chance to win this game with 0:12 left on the clock. The Raiders all saw a single play for 86 yards; Josh Jacobs tore up the field to score the winning touchdown. This was no doubt the craziest game with an insane finish that we saw this weekend. The final was 40-34.

It was a terrific game for the Raiders. Derek Carr threw for 293 total yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions. The Las Vegas receivers had a banner day. Jacobs and Davante Adams both had 74 receiving yards. Mack Hollins, Ameer Abdullah and Foster Moreau all had significant yardage with Hollins, Abdullah and Moreau cashing in with touchdowns. The man of the hour was Jacobs with 229 yards rushing and two touchdowns, which included the winning touchdown.

Next Sunday the Raiders will host the San Diego Chargers at Allegiant Stadium. Kickoff is scheduled for 1:25 PM PT.

San Francisco 49ers podcast with Marko Ukalovic: Could Santa Clara election turn control over to the 49ers?

Published on by Sports Radio ServiceLeave a comment

San Francisco 49ers owner Jed York meets with the media back on Jan 24, 2020 during Super Bowl 54. York has reportedly spent over $3.8 million for the Nov 8th, 2022 Santa Clara Mayoral and City Council election (AP News file photo)

On the 49ers podcast with Marko:

#1 Reports say that the Santa Clara election on Nov 8th could be politically influenced by 49ers CEO Jed York who contributed to the campaign fund donating over $3.8 million through it’s sports franchises and related entities towards electing a new mayor Anthony Becker and five city council members after the York and 49ers had been hounded about paying stadium management revenues to the city over the last few years. The Niners settled with the city for $1.6 million.

#2 The City Council voted to settle the stadium management debt that the 49ers owed Santa Clara but not without much rancor as in that city council meeting Becker was reportedly shouting and cussing at Santa Clara Mayor Lisa Gillmor and city Councilwoman Kathy Watanabe causing them to call a policeman to stand in the meeting chambers for the rest of the meeting.

#3 After learning these reports Marko, how concerned are Santa Clara residents going into this election and could they be concerned that the Mayoral and city council races are heavily influenced by the 49ers and it could go the other way re-electing Gillmor because residents are afraid that the 49ers would have control on the city leadership?

#4 To this week’s action on the field Sunday’s win in Los Angeles over the Rams 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo went to work in the second half after the 49ers were down by four points at half.

#5 The Los Angeles Chargers (4-3) head to Santa Clara for Sunday Night Football on Nov 13th a 5:20 pm kickoff at Levi Stadium. The Chargers have won three of their last four games. How do you see this match up this Sunday night.

Despite Carr and Adams hooking up the Raiders defense couldn’t hold the line in the second quarter as the Chargers scored 14 points.

“We did some good things,” Carr said. “There’s also some things that him and I, we were just talking about in the locker room, the way I see it, the way he sees it, and we’re trying to make that better. So yeah, we had production, but I think that we can be better, and so does he.”

It was a great afternoon for Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert had who went 26-34 threw for three touchdowns for 279 yards throwing to wide receivers DeAndre Carter and Gerald Everett.

The Raiders have their work cut out for them as they return to Las Vegas on Sun Sep 18th at Allegiant Stadium to host the Arizona Cardinals and Kyler Murray. The Cardinals have more a will to win after they got beat 44-21 by quarterback Pat Mahomes and the Kansas Chiefs in Glendale. Murray went 22-34, 193 yards and two touchdowns and was relieved by back up quarterback Trace McSorley after the game became lopsided.
