Watch: Raiders sack for safety slams door on Patriots

It was looking for a moment that either the Raiders were going to lose to the Patriots or they were going to get their third win of the season while once again failing to break the 20-point barrier. Both of those possibilities ended on the same play.

After several plays in which the Patriots kept backing up toward their own end zone — including a holding penalty, a dropped deep pas by Davante Parker, and a delay of game, they lined up in third and 15 from their own four-yard-line.

With 1:51 left to go and a two-point deficit, the Patriots were in four-down territory. But it wouldn’t get to a fourth down thanks to Bilal Nichols and Maxx Crosby.

Nichols burst up the middle and Crosby came around the edge to sack Mac Jones in the end zone.

The play gave the Raiders 21 points for the game, which ended their streak this season of games without scoring 20 points — including their two wins in which they scored 17 points each. It also ended the last chance the Patriots had of driving for the win.

The Raiders kneeled out the clock to. preserve the win.
