ALAMEDA – The Raiders were set to play the Pittsburgh Steelers in primetime at Oakland Coliseum.
This old AFC rivalry, which produced some of the greatest games in NFL history in the 1970s, was in a feature slot under the expectation both teams would be competitive and interesting down the stretch.
The Raiders didn’t hold up their end of the bargain. The Silver and Black have been both bad and offensively boring this season, prompting the league to push the game out of an exclusive window.
The Week 14 contest has been flexed out of primetime, and will now be played at 1:25 p.
