Raiders luck out when McManus misses field goal (The Associated Press)

DENVER (AP) -- Jack Del Rio's decision to go for 2 was more of a no-brainer than a head-scratcher.

It initially looked like one of the strangest coaching decisions of the year when the Raiders went for 2 following a touchdown that put them ahead by three against the Broncos in the fourth quarter Sunday.

But Del Rio really had no choice at all.

Long snapper Jon Condo had injured his right shoulder while recovering a fumbled punt moments earlier in the fourth quarter of Sunday's 15-12 victory. Condo's backup, tight end Lee Smith, had a cast on his snapping hand.
