Raiders week eight report card: Raiders let a winnable game slip away

The Texans defense was without three starters in the secondary and started Gareon Conley, who was with the team for less than a week. Combine that with the fact that JJ Watt was injured in the first half and did not return. All things considered, the passing game was a little disappointing, in my opinion, especially in the second half.

This isn’t necessarily the week to get on Derek Carr’s case; he did throw for 285 yards and three touchdowns. The numbers were padded by two plays that went for 111 yards, a 65-yard TD to Hunter Renfrow, and a 46-yarder to Tyrell Williams.
