INDIVIDUAL NOTES

  • QB Terrelle Pryor rushed for 112 yards on 13 carries, breaking the Raiders' single-game rushing record by a quarterback. The previous mark of 85 rushing yards was set by QB Rich Gannon on Oct. 8, 2000, at San Francisco.
  • Pryor became the first quarterback in franchise history to rush for 100 or more yards in a single game.
  • Pryor completed 19-of-29 pass attempts for 217 yards and one touchdown. His yardage total was the most by Raider quarterback since Carson Palmer passed for 273 yards on Dec. 6, 2012, vs. Denver.
  • RB Darren McFadden rushed for 48 yards on 17 carries, and moved into ninth place on the Raiders' career list with 3,382 rushing yards.
  • McFadden scored the Raiders' first touchdown of the contest on a 1-yard rush in the second quarter, marking the first rushing score by a Raider running back since Oct. 12, 2012, at Atlanta.
  • McFadden had three receptions for 18 yards, moving his career catches total to 161. He needs just two more receptions to move ahead of Mark van Eeghen into sixth place on the Raiders' all-time receptions list for running backs.
  • WR Rod Streater matched a career high with five receptions.
  • WR Denarius Moore tied a career high, hauling in five passes for the seventh time in his career.
  • S Tyvon Branch recorded his seventh career sack, moving him into sole possession of fourth place on the Raiders' all-time sacks list for defensive backs.
  • DE Jason Hunter notched his first sack as a Raider, dropping QB Andrew Luck for a 13-yard loss on a critical fourth-and-one play that set up an Oakland touchdown drive.
  • TE Jeron Mastrud recorded his second career catch, a 41-yarder in the fourth quarter that marked a career long.
  • K Sebastian Janikowski was 1-for-2 on field-goal attempts, missing a 48-yarder before hitting a 38-yard attempt. Janikowski's miss was his first from under 50 yards since the 2011 season, when he had a 49-yarder blocked.
  • Janikowski was perfect on two extra points, extending his consecutive PAT streak to 130 straight.
  •  Janikowski appeared in his 205th game as a Raider in the season-opener, moving into a tie with former Raider Dave Dalby for fourth place on Oakland's all-time games played list. With three more games, Janikowski will move ahead of Ray Guy (207) and Shane Lechler (206) into second place.
  • TE Mychal Rivera recorded the first two catches of his career for 26 yards.
  • WR Brice Butler hauled in his first career pass for eight yards.
