This past Sunday the Oakland Raiders defeated the Houston Texans 25-20, preventing the Texans to score in the last few minutes of the 4th quarter to go ahead and win the game. Raiders safety Michael Huff picked off Texans quarterback Matt Schaub in the end zone. It was an emotional day for the Raiders organization; players, coaches, and executives in the stands cried after that amazing last stand because Raiders owner, Al Davis, died the day before . Though a snapshot of the last play showed that Oakland only had 10 players on the field when a team usually has 11. It was amazing that the Raiders were able to shut down the Texans with one less player. Hue Jackson, Oakland Raiders head coach, did not even know of the mistake until after the game. This was a great, emotional win for Oakland and I believe the team is a contender in the NFL.
