Baller: RB Josh Jacobs

For the fourth time in the past six games, Jacobs went for over 100 yards on the ground. He ran for 112 yards on 24 carries (4.9 yards per carry). He burst out the gates with a 21-yard run on the first play of the game. Though his fumble on the Raiders’ second possession threatened to ruin his and the Raiders’ day, thankfully it did not.

With just over five minutes left in the second quarter and the score knotted at 7-7, Jacobs once again started a drive with a big run. He went for ten yards on the first play. With the run threat established, Carr went deep for a 21-yard completion to Tyrell Williams.

Then it was back to Jacobs for runs of 9 yards, 5 yards, and 5 yards to put the Raiders in the red zone. Four plays, and they were in the end zone.

The final scoring drive had Jacobs seeing a hole open up inside left tackle, and he shot through it, eluded tacklers, and made his way up the left sideline for 21 yards to the 13-yard-line. They added a field goal for the final score of 17-10.

Honorable Mention
