Raiders beat Packers in an 80-yard war in Winnipeg

Oh, Canada. Never again.

Because of problems with the IG Field artificial surface in both end zones, the Raiders and Green Bay Packers played Thursday night on an 80-yard field.

Key players from both sides remained planted on the bench, and a sparse crowd watched the Raiders beat the Packers 22-21 in what could be the last time you play an NFL team play an exhibition game on Canadian soil.

Daniel Carlson won the game with a 33-yard field goal with eight seconds remaining.

Given the amount of players didn’t play, it drove home the point to those who were actually on the field — don’t be too secure.
