Las Vegas Raiders All-Pro Maxx Crosby had a big night in the Silver and Black's bitter loss to the Denver Broncos. He had plenty to say after the game.
LAS VEGAS, Nev. -- The Las Vegas Raiders lost 29-19 to the Denver Broncos, their second defeat to the bitter AFC West rival this season.
Neither team was able to do much on their first drives, each resulting in punting the football away. The Bronco's second drive resulted in a field goal to put them up 3-0 early. The Raiders, though, seemed to find some cohesiveness within their offense after their first two drives resulted in punts.Dylan Laube caught the kick return and pushed his way down the field, resulting in a 59-yard return.
The Raiders picked up right where they left off on defense, forcing the Broncos to punt the ball away after 1:38 of possession time to start the second half. It wouldn't take long before the Broncos got the ball back, with Minshew throwing an interception. The interception resulted in the Broncos throwing its first touchdown of the game, taking the lead back, 16-13 to start the third quarter.
After getting the ball back from the Raider punt, the Broncos put up a ten-play, 26-yard gain before kicking a field goal to put the Broncos up 19-13. The Raiders needed to go to work. On a do-or-die drive, Jakobi Meyers put up four catches and 57 yards to help get the Raiders down the field. On third down, Minshew and the Raiders couldn't land a touchdown, so Las Vegas had to settle for their fourth field goal of the day, making it a one-possession game, Denver leading 26-19.
