OAKLAND — The Raiders received a dose of hard reality Sunday in a 42-21 loss to the Tennessee Titans at the Coliseum.
A sellout crowd saw what a potential playoff team looks like, and turns it wasn’t the Raiders in their penultimate game in Oakland.
What was left of the crowd let their feelings be known with some scattered boos as the teams shook hands following the game.
The broke open a 21-21 game at halftime with quarterback Ryan Tannehill and running back Derrick Henry doing as they pleased against an overmatched Raiders defense. The Raiders offense, which kept pace early, sputtered in the third quarter under Derek Carr and even gave up a touchdown when Darren Waller’s sideline fumble was returned 46 yards for a touchdown by Jayon Brown.
