A three-and-out by the Broncos offense to open the game gave the Raiders the ball at their own 38-yard line. Carr found Hunter Renfrow on third and five for 25 yards.

A few plays later, the Raiders were at the 12-yard-line. Then they gave it to Josh Jacobs and with the help of a couple nice blocks by Foster Moreau and Brandon Parker, Jacobs sliced for the touchdown.

That’s how you want to open the game against your division rival. The Broncos have a stout defense and the Raiders had their way with them on their opening drive. And the touchdown looked easy, to go up 7-0 with just under ten minutes left in the first quarter.
