Silver And Black Pride
The Las Vegas Raiders are playing at the Houston Texans on Sunday. Here is everything to need to know about the game:
First quarter
The Texans won the coin toss and deferred.
The teams traded punts to start the game.
After a 23 second first drive (with three incompletions by Geno Smith), the Raiders took the field for their second drive and Geno threw a pick six to Houston cornerback Derek Stingley. It was an awful throw by Smith, who missed last week with an injury. 7-0 Houston.
Ashton Jeanty had a 21-yard run. but it was negated by a Dylan Parham penalty. The Raiders challenged a potential first-down conversion, but it was denied and they punted on fourth and one from their 34. The Raiders haven’t gotten a first down in eight of their past 11 possessions.
It’s been a solid start by the Raiders’ defense as Houston had to punt again.
