Derek Carr, Raiders Defeat Broncos in 1st Game Since Jon Gruden's Resignation

The Las Vegas Raiders are back on track.

Las Vegas snapped a two-game losing streak with a 34-24 victory over the Denver Broncos in Sunday's AFC West showdown at Empower Field at Mile High. Derek Carr led the way for the Raiders, who improved to 4-2 and into a tie atop the division with the Los Angeles Chargers.

The win was all the more notable because it was interim head coach Rich Bisaccia's first game after Jon Gruden resigned when emails revealed he used racist, sexist and anti-gay language.

Teddy Bridgewater threw three touchdowns in the losing effort for the Broncos, who fell to 3-3 with their third straight loss.
