Khalil Mack's five sacks key Raiders' upset of Broncos

The Oakland Raiders had minus-14 yards in the first half Sunday and they were shutout in the half.

Yet, the Raiders somehow are coming home with a 15-12 victory.

Denver completely imploded in the second half with a series of miscues on both sides of the ball and the Raiders rode five sacks from the terrific Khalil Mack to steal the victory. Oakland is now 6-7 on the season and it kept its faint playoff hopes alive..

What were they thinking? In the third quarter, the Raiders had a third down and less than a yard and they had quarterback Derek Carr drop back for a pass.
