I am no Texans fan, but it certainly appeared that the NFL understood that the Raiders were a fan favorite in Mexico. For real. Houston scored a long TD early that was blown dead early in the game. Literally every replay looked like that it was a TD, and the dude never stepped out. Whistle blew. Things happen. Later in the game, Houston is driving and they certainly appear to get first down on both third and fourth down, yet they somehow come up short. Raiders take over on downs and score the winning TD. Even Raider fans have to see that and know they got the benefit of some BS calls.

My compliments to all the LongSuffering Raider fans.

Thank you! Exactly. Long and suffering. One of my closest friends is a Broncos fan. It's fun when the Raiders are competitive. I grew up and took it for granted. McKenzie is the shiz.

Raider fan here also. This season has been so fun to this point. Reggie M. is the man. Team is set up for sustained success.

Another Raider fan here. They have drafted well and been very smart in free agency, so it does seem like they are set up for sustained success. I am worried about future monster contracts for Mack and Carr though. I don't want it to turn into the Flacco effect.

Mack is a beast. It's funny. My Bronco friend saw it before I did.

Houston fan obviously here. Definitely didn't get help from the referee's, but didn't cost them the game. Poor inconsistent play all season long.

That first score should have been a TD for the Texans. The Raiders have been playing good though. It's been a good season, no doubt.

Can't wait for them to move here to Las Vegas!!

I'm not for that. I think they belong in Oakland. That being said, I understand why things are done. I can think of worst places and hope that it doesn't bomb on them. Do you live in Vegas?

Isn't likely to happen soon but it is critical that The Raiders move before California secedes from The United States of America and is invaded by the Russians or Chinese. Then America would lose Her greatest professional sports franchise ever.

Sorry, I have always felt the Raiders as the dirtiest team in the NFL, for over 50 years now. Some in the AFL.

Always dirty, always self aggrandising..
