Raiders' Davante Adams a 'different' receiver during current three-game tear

DENVER -- As Davante Adams raced across the field toward the end zone, no one within about a dozen yards of him, one thought crossed the Las Vegas Raiders receiver's mind when he looked back toward the line of scrimmage and quarterback Derek Carr.

"Please, God," Adams thought, "give that man some time."

Indeed.

Carr launched a perfectly-placed pass to hit a wide-open Adams -- his 11.9 yards of separation represented the most on any overtime TD since Next Gen Stats began tracking in 2016 -- in stride, allowing Adams to jog into the end zone for the 35-yard walk-off touchdown Sunday in Denver, giving the Raiders a 22-16 overtime win against the Denver Broncos.
