Raiders defeated by the forty niners

Preseason game against the other team bay area team was a loss today for the raiders. I watched the agony with a friend who brought a nice projector. I am looking forward to seeing some more games using the projector, i felt like i was sitting in a sports bar. The raiders started out nicely, stacked up a 14 - 3 lead, but about halfway through the third quarter they suffered from a series of turnovers which eventually led to 3 forty niner touchdowns. Raiders came back with another touchdown which counted after Tom Cable threw the red flag. With a score of 20-21 instead of kicking in the extra point to tie the game they rolled the dice and "went for it" without success.
The niners screwed up the whole clock burning strategy and the raiders got the ball back with little over 2 minutes to go. Thats when they sealed their fate with yet another intercepted pass. Not a good show coming from the raiders tonight.
