FLASH RECAP:
Trailing 14-7, the Raiders (2-1) score 24 unanswered points. Michael Bush's 1-yard run on the first play of the fourth quarter gives Oakland a 31-17 advantage. Mark Sanchez throws for a career-high 369 yards and two touchdowns for New York (2-1) but is sacked four times. The Raiders have 234 rushing yards and four rushing touchdowns.

DE Jarvis Moore — Has two of the Raiders' four sacks against Mark Sanchez and a tackle for loss.
WR Denarius Moore — His 23-yard TD run on a reverse breaks a 24-all tie with 40 seconds left in the third quarter.
QB Jason Campbell — Throws for 156 yards on 18 of 27 passing with no interceptions and an 81.7 efficiency rating. Campbell's 28-yard pass to Michael Bush sets up a 49-yard Sebastian Janikowski field goal, giving the Raiders a 34-24 lead with 2:32 remaining.
