DENVER -- An emotional win Sunday for the Las Vegas Raiders ended a painful week for the team.
The Raiders won 34-24 at the Denver Broncos in their first game since Jon Gruden resigned as coach in the aftermath of his email scandal, and their first game with Rich Bisaccia as interim coach.
It was also the first game Bisaccia, a longtime special teams coordinator whose career began in 1983, worked as a head coach at any level.
The offense responded to offensive coordinator Greg Olson taking over playcalling duties from Gruden as Derek Carr authored his fourth 300-plus passing yard game of the season (the only Raiders quarterback with more such games in the first six games of a season was Rich Gannon, who had five in his 2002 MVP season).
