Matt McGloin looked like Tom Brady. Not during the game, but after when he ran after the officials to complain about a call in the fourth quarter that could have gotten the Raiders back in the game. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

RATING: (SNOOZING VIEWER)Not sure why the Raiders gave the ball to Rashad Jennings only 13 times (10 runs, three receptions). He averaged 5.5 yards a touch. Winning on Matt McGloin's arm was the plan, and he was pretty inaccurate most of the day, including missing a wide-open Jamize Olawale deep early. The line was solid again. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Oakland coach Dennis Allen said last week that he and his staff "are in the solution business." [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

It seems just like yesterday that an undrafted free agent receiver showed up at Raiders training camp with some jujitsu moves that his agent taught him to keep cornerbacks off of him on the line of scrimmage. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

On Tuesday, the Raiders lost a player on their practice squad to the Tennessee Titans, who claimed and added him to their active roster. The player already had been cut twice by Oakland this season, so really, no big deal, right? [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

Raiders fullback Marcel Reece does it all. He got the Raiders' offense going with a 45-yard reception, threw a 22-yard pass on a successful fake punt and gave a rousing halftime speech that momentarily woke up his team. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

Raiders quarterback Matt McGloin threw four interceptions and had a fumble, and the Oakland defense looked as though it never heard of a screen play before Sunday. Chiefs running back Jamaal Charles scored three of his five touchdowns on screen plays as Kansas City won 56-31 at O.co Coliseum. The 56 points are the most ever allowed by the Raiders.

Raiders owner Mark Davis is going to need an extra massage this week, maybe some herbal tea. Pipe in some classical music. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

In a year when linemen dominated the opening round of the NFL draft, it figured to be a wide open race for the Offensive and Defensive Rookie of the Year awards. That's a sad turn of events for couch potatoes who wanted to see a big, fat man win a major award. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

RATING: (POLITE APPLAUSE)Terrelle Pryor gave the Raiders a spark in the second quarter, leading them to their only points of the first half. Matt McGloin came back in and got comfortable in the second half, completing 13 of 21 passes for 174 yards and two touchdowns. The line was solid, and Marcel Reece ran for 123 yards and a TD.

In May, when Charles Woodson came back and signed with the Raiders, the sun was shining and fans drove to greet him at the team facility. They cheered wildly, hoping that the smiling old pro would help bring an end to the organization's losing ways. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

There's nothing as rewarding for a coach as when his team comes out ready to play and executes the game plan to take an early lead. And there's nothing quite as deflating as his team coughing up the lead and losing the game late. Again and again. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

There are 20 teams in the NFL either in or within one game of a playoff spot. The Raiders (4-8), though a game better than they were at this point last season, are not one of those teams. But a lot of the players they pushed out in the offseason are. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Lamarr Houston is one of the Raiders' best players and leaders on defense, and the defensive end's disappearance on Thanksgiving was one of the reasons Oakland lost to Dallas. He owns that and knows he needs to "bring it" Sunday against the Jets in New Jersey. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The Roadrunner is back. Taiwan Jones, the man who ran a 4.32 40-yard dash out of college in 2011 and jumps over cars on YouTube, returned to running back for the Raiders at Wednesday's practice. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In recent weeks, the Raiders have shown more faith in allowing receivers Andre Holmes and Rod Streater to fight with defensive backs for 50-50 passes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

There aren't many quarterbacks under 6 feet tall in the NFL, and the ones who are, like Drew Brees and Russell Wilson, do a good job of moving their feet and their passing windows. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

Some of the Raiders admitted to thinking about the playoff possibilities before Sunday's game against the Titans, which is not a healthy thing for a 4-6 team to do. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

Tennessee's Ryan Fitzpatrick hit Kendall Wright for a 10-yard touchdown pass with 10 seconds left to beat Oakland 23-19 Sunday at the Coliseum. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

RATING: (POLITE APPLAUSE)The Raiders didn't get into rhythm and went 3-for-10 on third downs. Rashad Jennings had 73 yards running and 49 receiving, and he could have used some more touches. Matt McGloin threw an ugly interception, but the rookie did lead the team on a go-ahead drive in the fourth quarter. The offensive line did a good job of keeping him clean. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

It may not be Tom Brady vs. Peyton Manning, but Matt McGloin vs. Ryan Fitzpatrick has implications Sunday. The Raiders are hosting the Titans, and it's basically a playoff game to stay in the AFC playoff race. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

Stacy McGee got to Raiders teammate Nick Roach before Roach even got up from his interception 20 yards down the field last Sunday. Which is pretty good, since it was McGee's pressure and hit on Houston quarterback Case Keenum that set up the interception. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

No one said it was going to easy. The movie-like rise of Raiders undrafted rookie Matt McGloin will face a higher degree of difficulty in Week 2. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

Rubberneckers. That's what we all are at this point, looking at the eight-team pileups in both the AFC and the NFC, as a bunch of mediocre teams have collided in a race for the conference's final playoff spots. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

RATING: (WILD APPLAUSE)It was a new-look offense, that's for sure. Matt McGloin sat in the pocket and made the reads, and the Raiders had four passes of 20 yards or more, after coming into Sunday with a league-low 18. The receivers still had too many drops. Rashad Jennings ran hard and showed some home run ability, with an 80-yard score. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Raiders linebacker Kevin Burnett put a big circle on his jersey as instructed and then cut off Texans running back Ben Tate at the 3-yard line with 1:15 left. The tackle for a loss of a yard on 3rd and 1 was arguably the biggest play of the game. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

"Yeah." [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

Whether it's Terrelle Pryor or Matt McGloin taking snaps Sunday, the Raiders quarterback should feel a little safer behind the offensive line. Left guard Andre Gurode almost made it back last week from a quad injury and should be good to go Sunday against the Texans. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
