However – those raw stats don’t take into account just how well this Raiders defense has been playing over the last few weeks. The Packers and Vikings will square off on the final Sunday of the regular season. The special teams are good but not great.

JJ Abrams ‘regrets’ not directing Star Wars: Episode VIII
Star Wars: The Force Awakens only just arrived in theaters last week, but talk is now shifting to its follow-up. Han Solo and Chewbacca are back and have some of the best interaction with one another in the series.
Asked about how he felt about his offense, McCarthy said, “I feel good about it. I’m not into style points or stats”. I’m sick and exhausted of talking about negativities. They allowed just 55.7 yards per game in their last three games and last week held out the Denver Broncos to a season low 34 yards in the 15-12 road win. We lost three games, but that’s the game. “We gave ourselves a chance but we didn’t come out with it at the end like we needed to”. Rodgers passed for under 300 yards Sunday for the fifth straight game Sunday against Oakland and 11th time overall this season.
Among his comments, Rodgers said, “We weren’t very effective”.
Cobb later made a key catch and broke tackles on his way to a 19-yard gain that converted on second-and-17 and got the ball in the red zone.
The Green Bay Packers hope the magic from Detroit is still with them ten days later at Lambeau Field.
“You can’t dig yourself into a hole early like that”, said Raiders safety Charles Woodson, a former Packer.
Carrying the ball on four of the drive’s first 10 plays, Cobb rushed for 18 yards. We got in there and got hot and nobody could stop us. “They got some issues that they have to deal with and it’s been hard”.
But Woodson’s Raiders also showed that the Packers’ offensive shortcomings haven’t disappeared with McCarthy running the offense. The Packers Raiders game TV details and how to watch Raiders vs Packers free live streaming can be found below. Between Eddie Lacy and James Starks, the offense dominated the Cowboys in that game with their 35 carries. On offense, the Packers are scoring just over 24 points a game, while the Raiders are putting up 23 per contest.
More than anything, though, this game again highlighted that without injured Jordy Nelson, the Packers’ receiving corps doesn’t threaten defensive game planners.
“It didn’t help that they were going hurry-up, so guys really weren’t on the same page”, Amerson said.
“You’ve got to make a play on the ball and hang on to it”, he said, per Demovsky. After an incomplete pass to Adams and an 8 yard run by Lacy, Rodgers had a first down to Jeff Janis but the receiver let the pass slip through his hands and settled for a field goal instead. That would be the Raiders’ first 1,000 yard rusher since Darren McFadden reached 1,157 in 2010.
A game that began swiftly – a 14-0 Packers lead after two interceptions of Raiders quarterback Derek Carr – teetered momentarily in the third quarter until Aaron Rodgers and the offense jolted to life.
-WR James Jones caught six passes for 82 yards and a touchdown Sunday in a 30-20 victory against Oakland.
Cooper, who turned 21 in June, is the fourth National Football League player to top 1,000 yards at age 21 or young and his 68 catches with two games left are tied with Tampa Bay’s Mike Evans for the fifth most by any player that age.
The first quarter came to an end with the Raiders facing third-and goal from the five yard line. Since his hiring at the conclusion of last year’s 3-13 season, his team has been the subject of major optimism.
