ALAMEDA, Calif. -- Karma, as any Oakland Raiders fan will tell you, has a way of coming around. So yeah, seeing Tom Brady get strip-sacked late in Super Bowl LII on a play that looked eerily similar to one 16 years earlier -- which will forever be known in the streets of Silver and Blackdom as the Tuck Rule -- was strangely satisfying to Raider Nation.
Because, as the late Al Davis said, the Tuck Game was indeed the “undoing of a lot of things,” serving as Jon Gruden’s final game as Raiders coach and beginning more than a decade of dismay for Oakland.
