Raiders Lose To Green Bay 30-20, Playoffs Hopes Dashed
I think we just feel like we just need to be more consistent on offense. The Packers and Vikings will square off on the final Sunday of the regular season. “The team is getting better….”

The Packers (10-4) officially clinched a postseason spot midway through the first quarter when Carolina defeated the New York Giants with a last-second field goal.
Carr did throw for more yards, though, 276 to 204, along with two touchdown passes to Rodgers’ one. “It’s fun to go score a bunch of points, put up a bunch of yards but, at the end of the day, everybody’s fighting to get into the playoffs right now”. I’m sick and exhausted of talking about negativities.
The Raiders have scored 30 TDs via the pass and just six rushing the football, so the M.O.is predictable, even if the Raiders have been reasonably successful this season (at least comparative to the past shipwrecks). Should he not be able to play (and it’s looking like that), then the task of stopping Amari Cooper and Michael Crabtree will fall to rookie defensive backs Quinten Rollins and Damarious Randall. “We put ourselves in position, had some chances, but they made more plays than we did. Just didn’t come up at the end when we needed to”. And we had a awful first half…. And sure, Starks’ box-score numbers appear to be better on first glance, but he fumbled and turned the ball over, which led to a Raiders scoring drive. We got in there and got hot and nobody could stop us. I felt like they got me a little bit, but it’s all good. The game has a scheduled start time of 4.05 p.m. ET and takes place from O.co Coliseum in Oakland. Raiders WR Seth Roberts left the game with an abdominal injury in the second quarter and did not return…. The Packers’ Micah Hyde accepted the present on the Raiders’ 36 and ran it back to the 2.
Rodgers completed 22 of 39 passes and was intercepted once, late in the fourth quarter.
A sack by Peppers on third down for the Raiders forced a punt with seven minutes left, and the short kick gave the Packers the ball at Oakland’s 40 yard line. “It was a bunch of us, because we know what we’re capable of and we could have done a much better job than what we did”. Poor play from the offensive line contributing to what was a hard day at the office for the second year quarterback. “It enabled us to see what kind of personnel they were going to put on the field, how they’re going to counter that attack”.
The Raiders have been knocked out of the playoff hunt. That set up fullback John Kuhn’s 5-yard touchdown run with 5:08 left in the first quarter, giving Green Bay a 7-0 lead.
After losing four of five games during a rare midseason slump, the Green Bay Packers are back where they usually are this time of year: headed to the playoffs. “We got a big one next week, so we’re not really satisfied”, said safety Micha Hyde, who had an interception Sunday against Oakland. First, he dropped a short slant that would have converted a third down deep in Raiders territory in the third quarter. Since his hiring at the conclusion of last year’s 3-13 season, his team has been the subject of major optimism. Carrie hit Cobb before the ball arrived making for an easy pass interference penalty.
The Raiders couldn’t get much going on their next series.

Montgomery has missed eight games and keeps aggravating his ankle in practice, so it’s not clear whether he’ll be back at all. In the receiving end, Mychal Rivera had 49 yards and one touchdown in three receptions while Clive Walfor added 47 yards in three catches. Currently, there is rain in the forecast for Sunday, so I would expect Coach McCarthy to continue to feed the duo of Lacy/Starks, while also building off the solid showing from the receivers last week.
