The Saints beat the Raiders 24-0 with the help of a touchdown and two catches by the player. There is a time and a place for it.
After a long meeting with team owner Mark Davis, the first-year Las Vegas Raiders coach only had five words in his media conference.
A person leaned on a switch.
The lights going out was a way for the Raiders to show their weakness. The blame was taken by the man.
I apologized to Raider Nation for that performance and I own that, too," he said. I'm responsible for that.
Point it at me if you are going to do that. I need to do a better job of getting us prepared.
After winning two of three games, including a 38-20 thumping of the Houston Texans, the Raiders are back in last place in the division.
The Las Vegas offense, which looked so good a week earlier, was overwhelmed by a defense that allowed 28.6 points per game.
As such, the Raiders' offense did not cross into the other side of the field until the final drive, when starting quarterback Carr was replaced by a backup.
Carr's 101 passing yards was the lowest of his career in a game he did not leave with an injury. We are a lot better than that.
The challenge is to see how we respond as a team.
The Raiders will be in Florida for a week to practice and play the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Sitting on the sideline as the clock wound down on the Raiders' Halloween Weekend Horror Show, Carr said he had a similar feeling to the last time the Raiders were shut out. The Rams.
The Raiders had just won their first game of the season, after an 0-10 start, and they responded by beating the Rams.
Carr said that he could speak into something because he's been through it. I can use it to make sure I'm better and to make sure we're better going forward."
Tomorrow, we have to correct this. We have to get ready to practice as soon as possible. The only way to fix it is on the practice field.
The All-Pro receiver had just one touch, a 1-yard loss on a jet-sweep run, entering the fourth quarter and finished with one catch, for 3 yards, on five targets.
Carr said that the Raiders will need urgent attention this week.
You hope that's the last time you do that," Carr said. You hope that's what it is.
The first five words were spoken before the lights went out.
He said that that was not good enough.
The light switch was turned back on.
"Oh boy!" he said. We're going to start over.
The Raiders' season was not the subject of his comments.
