What they’re saying: Minshew catches fire in Raiders’ 4th quarter comeback

X/Twitter reacts to Raiders’ big upset

There were plenty of moments in the Las Vegas Raiders’ Week 2 upset over the Baltimore Ravens where the Raiders looked like they were dead in the water. Las Vegas faced two 10-point deficits in the second half; 16-6 at the beginning of the third quarter and 23-13 during the fourth quarter.

However, quarterback Gardner Minshew seemed to catch fire by targeting wide receiver Davante Adams and rookie tight end Brock Bowers down the stretch of the game. Adams finished with nine catches for 110 yards and his first touchdown of the season while Bowers also had nine grabs for 98 yards and several big first downs.

That combined with Daniel Carlson going four for four on his field goal attempts along with a stout defense led by Maxx Crosby (six total tackles, two sacks, four TFL and a pass defended) and linebacker Robert Spillane (10 total tackles and two passes defended) helped the Raiders pull off the comeback/upset!

Las Vegas is now 1-1, leading to some victory cigars in the locker room.

Looks like the Silver and Black proved a lot of people wrong! (Hand up, me too…)

This leadership move by Crosby seems to have paid off at the end of the game as Minshew stepped up.
