Tampa, FL
The Raiders overcome an NFL-record 23 penalties for 200 yards to improve to 6-2 for the first time since 2001. An offensive pass interference penalty on Michael Crabtree nullifies a Raiders touchdown, and Oakland is penalized twice for lining up with 12 players on defense on third-and-1 on Tampa Bay's second TD drive during the fourth quarter. Derek Carr's 513 passing yards against Tampa Bay breaks Cotton Davidson's previous franchise record of 427 yards against Denver on Oct. 25, 1964. The Raiders' Amari Cooper has 12 catches for a career-high 173 yards, including a 34-yard TD reception in the third quarter. Tampa Bay's Jameis Winston throws for 180 yards and two TDs on 16 of 32 passing. The Raiders entered the game ranked 32nd against the pass, allowing 302.1 yards per game. Defensive end Khalil Mack has both of Oakland's two sacks, giving him four sacks the past three games.
