La Velocidad Mata
La ofensiva de los Raiders necesitaba una jugada explosiva y la obtuvieron cortesía del receptor Henry Ruggs III. Durante el ultimo cuarto Derek Carr conectó un pase de 61 yardas con Ruggs para darle a los Raiders una ventaja de 23-14. Fue una gran jugada para Ruggs quien durante el receso de la temporada ganó masa muscular y mejoró su forma de correr rutas.
Ruggs terminó el partido con 113 yardas en 5 recepciones y un touchdown.
Dos Capturas 'Solly'
Después de las dos capturas de Maxx Crosby la semana pasada, Solomon Thomas fue el jugador subvalorado esta semana.
Thomas fue clave en la presión de la línea defensiva registrando dos capturas sobre Ben Roethlisberger en el Heinz Field. Las dos capturas de Thomas igualaron sus total de las ultimas dos temporadas. Sin embargo no lo hizo el solo ya que la constante presión que propiciaron Maxx Crosby y Yannick Ngakoue durante todo el partido lo liberó para llegar a Big Ben.
Éxito Contra la Cortina de Acero
Hay algo en el viento de otoño que los Steelers no pueden descifrar.
Con la victoria de este domingo, los Raiders ahora tienen marca de 4-1 en contra de los Steelers en los últimos cinco encuentros entre ambos equipos.
