Momentum is, Robert Spillane said, "so finicky" when it comes to the NFL, where each of a team's 17 regular-season games is like a season unto itself. So after the Las Vegas Raiders rode a wave of momentum as unlikely as it was needed to their 26-23 comeback win at the Baltimore Ravens,

Down, 23–13, with just over 12 minutes to go in the game, the Raiders were able to ignite a comeback and keep the Ravens from scoring for the rest of the day. The win was overall impressive, but head coach Antonio Pierce knows the team still has a lot to work on.

The Raiders defense would take the ball back and the offense returned to mount another drive. The big play saw Minshew stand tall in the pocket as he waited for something to open up and then Bowers came back to his QB to make the catch inside the five and put the Raiders in first and goal at the one. They punched it in on the next play.
