With the sting of losing against a division rival still fresh, Jon Gruden and his coaching staff are pouring over the film to find out what went wrong. Raiders once again squandered a half-time lead; this time allowing the Denver offense to march down field and control the time of possession in the final minutes of the game.
The Raiders defense looked lackluster at the end and similar to last week against the Rams, Paul Guenther’s unit failed to make stops when the Raiders needed it most. Getting off the field on 3rd down is important so the defense can take a break.
