The 2016 Oakland Raiders just do not blink. In their latest outing, this one against the Carolina Panthers, both the offense and defense shined brightest in the game's biggest moments. Derek Carr led the offense down the field twice in the fourth quarter to come from behind, and Khalil Mack imposed his will and sealed the victory with a strip sack of Cam Newton.
The stars were definitely out in force at the Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum – NBA players Steph Curry and Kevin Durant, entertainment icon Ice Cube, and wrestling legend Ice Cube were just a few in attendance – and the Raiders' stars came through too as Derek Carr, Khalil Mack, Michael Crabtree, Bruce Irvin, and Latavius Murray all put on a show. Now at 9-2, the Raiders are clear contenders for the top seed in the AFC and are unquestionably one of the most exciting teams in the league to watch. After the game, many of the players, as well as media figures, athletes, and celebrities, took to Twitter to share some thoughts on the Silver and Black – check out their reactions below:
