Raiders return to the bay, game thread

[RaiderandBulldog]

It’s hard to believe this is the first regular season game for the Silver and Black in the bay since the move to Vegas,

Now I’m not sure how much Santa Clara can qualify as being in the bay but what ever.

[DanKD]

Jeanty looks a little more bouncy today.

[Rabidraider]

It's amazing how much better Jeanty looks when he actually gets some daylight.

3rd and 19 they weren't playing the run.

[lakerfan7]

so it will be 28-10 at the half

24-10 is a given. But yeah, we all know they’ll let them run right on down for a, relatively, easy TD

[Reno Hightower]

3rd and 19 they weren't playing the run.

I wasn't referring to that play.

[Raider_Dave]

So help me if the Niners get another 7 to close out the half.....

They may not even need to throw a pass to do it

[Rabidraider]

If we get down 3 scores lets bring in Mendoza.

[Opoponax50]

Will the 9'ers score a TD or a FG on this one.

They've got an entire minute+ and two timeouts, so I'll predict a TD with 13 seconds left (despite the sack)

ETA: Glad I was wrong. Does an end to the half count as a defensive stop?

[55Barndoor]

Finally some pressure on Purdy

[Raider_Dave]

I hate seeing guys celebrate 1 play after having been getting their ASS KICKED the entire half.

[55Barndoor]

IF we can get in the half at 21-10 and come out after the half and get 7 - we may get a game

[pfish57]

A Crosby sighting

[KillerRaider30]

We stopped them!

[Reno Hightower]

It's doubtful we win this but I think we will make it interesting in the second half.

[chucker]

big stop by our elite defense there.

[mranquales]

We get ball to start the 3rd. We have to score to have a chance.
