KEY STATS:
THEY SAID IT:
Raiders DT Richard Seymour
"Just got to protect the ball. Coach always preaches high and tight, and when I was trying to get upfield and get some extra yards and make a play, it seems like it’s somebody you don’t see who knocks it out. So somebody I didn’t see knocked it out.”
Jaguars WR Cecil Shorts III
"An ugly win is better than a pretty loss. I know that. I’m just proud of the way we fought because it wasn’t pretty. We did not play up to our standard and play the way we’re coached. But we hung in there and the defense played great giving us the ball back. It’s just good to get out of here with a win.”
Raiders QB Carson Palmer
