Jets 37, Raiders 27

FLASH RECAP:
Oft-criticized Geno Smith throws for a touchdown and runs for another to lead New York to a victory over visiting Oakland on Dec. 8, 2013 at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey before an announced crowd of 76,957.

Chris Ivory has 76 of New York's 143 rushing yards and Antonio Allen blocks an Oakland punt and recovers it in the end zone for a TD to help the Jets (6-7) end a three-game losing streak.

The Raiders (4-9) lose their 13th straight game in the Eastern time zone.

Smith's 25-yard scoring pass to Jeremy Kerley late in the first quarter is Smith's first touchdown pass in six games and New York's first TD in three games.

Oakland linebacker Kevin Burnett intercepts Smith on New York's second possession, Smith's 20th interception of the season. Smith enters the game with eight interceptions and no TD passes the previous five games.

Marcel Reese has a career-high 123 rushing yards and a touchdown for Oakland, which drops its third straight game and has lost five of six contests.

With a fourth straight road loss to the Jets, the Raiders assure themselves of a losing record for the ninth time in 11 seasons. The Raiders had a non-winning record only 15 times in the franchise's first 43 seasons.

THEY SAID IT:
"Today is as bad as we played this whole season. It was really embarrassing to be part of it. We looked like the Bad News Bears out there.”

Raiders S Charles Woodson

"I can’t sit here and say I’m not human because it is difficult. When you have those struggles and you come out and, the first quarter and first half, you have an interception near the 50-yard line and you kind of start to think about those things, all of those mistakes in the past.”

Jets QB Geno Smith

"We worked too hard to have the outcome be like this. We need 'Ws.' This game is about winning, It's about production. Stats don't matter. The numbers don't matter unless you win and we didn't do it."
