ALAMEDA, Calif. -- In their two dominant wins over San Diego and the New York Jets, the Raiders did not commit a turnover.
They more than made up for it last week at Pittsburgh, in a thrilling 38-35 loss when Oakland had four turnovers.
Of course, ball security is being emphasized this week as the Raiders prepare to host the stout Minnesota Vikings' defense. Coach Jack Del Rio's staff emphasizes ball security every week, but it's of extra importance this week.
"It's important for us, we understand that," Del Rio said. "It's something that will continue to be an emphasis point for us.
