THEY SAID IT
"I’m just trying to do too much. I just needed to settle down. I came in at the half and said ‘Man, I just need to play football. I’m here for a reason and I just need to settle down and do my job.’”

Raiders QB Derek Carr

"I don't think I played well at all for whatever reason. Usually I know why something was off ... but I just felt like I was in it and whatever I was trying to do didn't work."

Seahawks QB Russell Wilson

BY THE NUMBERS
2-18: Raiders' record the past 20 road games.
