Las Vegas Raiders' tendency to start slow finally too much to overcome

HENDERSON, Nev. -- Sure, quarterback Derek Carr has an inkling as to why the Las Vegas Raiders offense has been stuck in neutral and sometimes going in reverse to start games.

No, he's not going to share it publicly.

"I'll do that privately," Carr said after the Raiders lost at the Los Angeles Chargers 28-14 on Monday night, a game in which Las Vegas fell behind 21-0.

"It's nothing I need to do in front of a microphone. That's not my style."

Neither, it appears, is wanting to get owned in such a dominant fashion in the game's opening quarter.
