It’s good to be home. Less so when “home” is in London, England and infested with Chicago Bears fans, but it didn’t seem to change the outcome all that much. For the second week in a row, the Oakland Raiders were able to overcome as underdogs and slip away with a narrow victory, 24-21.
The score itself doesn’t tell the entire story. The Raiders led 17-0 in the first half and were thoroughly dominating the Chase Daniel-led Bears in almost every facet. It was looking more like a slaughter than anything else.
But things got very tight, very quickly.
