Raiders’ game review
OFFENSE
nearly sacks Derek (seven) half Carr as took many as he completed passes (16). The offense had 10 possesions; six ended in punts and one on downs. Their longest drive of 10 plays for 71 yards yielded a field goal; their secondlongest (10 plays, 47 yards) a missed field-goal try.
DEFENSE
its A 49ers third-string averaged offense quarterback 7.5 led yards by per play and amassed 405 yards. That included a 71-yard pass to tight end George Kittle, with safety Erik Harris whiffing on a tackle, a 53-yard pass to Richie James, and a 52-yard Raheem Mostert touchdown run on which he wasn’t touched.
SPECIAL TEAMS
Rookie punter Johnny Townsend remains shaky at best. He averaged a net of 36.5 yards on six punts, with two pinning the 49ers inside their 20-yard line. Rookie kicker Daniel Carlson missed a 45-yard field-goal try and made a 37-yarder. The Raiders’ average drive started at their 24.
COACHING
have win matchups Oakland more said coaches individual players in games. can Raiders’ players Thursday night said they think they have talent in the locker room, but aren’t getting results. The disconnect falls to the staff to address. Second-half adjustments Thursday were nonexistent.
OVERALL
It wasn’t the physical manhandling they experienced against Seattle in London, but this was an uglier loss. The 49ers were a one-win team starting a thirdstring quarterback. The Raiders were mostly intact and were not competitive. In prime time. On national TV. Where do they go from here?
