Jon Gruden accepts NFL's apology for blown call in Raiders loss, but still not pleased

ALAMEDA, Calif. -- While Oakland Raiders coach Jon Gruden said he accepted the NFL's apology from Al Riveron, the league's senior vice president of officiating, for blowing a call on Derek Carr's slide near the sideline, Gruden was far from "fulfilled" by the mea culpa.

Not when the Raiders lost to the Jacksonville Jaguars, 20-16, and not when the blown call was so crucial late in the Raiders' final game in Oakland before next year's move to Las Vegas.

"Derek was in bounds and that play cost us dearly," Gruden said Monday in his weekly media conference.
