NFL Carr drives Raiders past Seahawks By The Associated Press MailTribune.com By The Associated Press Posted Aug. 29, 2014 @ 12:01 am By The Associated Press Posted Aug. 29, 2014 @ 12:01 am » Social News OAKLAND, Calif. — With a fabulous finish to the preseason, rookie Derek Carr created a big question for the Oakland Raiders heading into the regular season. Carr threw three touchdown passes to make a case he should be Oakland's starting quarterback as the Raiders beat the Seattle Seahawks 41-31 on Thursday night. Carr was almost perfect in the start in place of Matt Schaub, completing 11 of 13 passes for 143 yards and led Oakland (2-2) to four touchdowns in four drives. Schaub was anointed the starter after being acquired in an offseason trade from Houston. Coach Dennis Allen hasn't deviated from that plan even as Schaub struggled in the preseason before resting this game with a sore throwing elbow. Now the question will be if Carr's strong performance that included one touchdown drive against Seattle's first-team defense will be enough to change that plan before the opener against the New York Jets on Sept. 7. The Seahawks (2-2) have no questions about their starting quarterback. Russell Wilson made the most of a brief cameo, completing three passes for 77 yards, including a 25-yard touchdown pass to Luke Wilson on a four-play drive to open the game. Backup Terrelle Pryor was 11 for 17 for 134 yards and a 33-yard touchdown pass to Phil Bates. He also ran for 12 yards on four carries. LIONS 23, BILLS 0: Detroit third-string quarterback Kellen Moore threw two touchdown passes on a night in which Buffalo rookie receiver Sammy Watkins reinjured his ribs. BENGALS 35, COLTS 7: Rookie Jeremy Hill ran for 90 yards and was Cincinnati's top receiver as well with six receptions for 70 yards. FALCONS 24, JAGUARS 14: T.J. Yates made a strong case to be Atlanta's backup quarterback, throwing for 243 yards and two touchdowns — highlighted by a 67-yard touchdown strike to Freddie Martino in the second quarter. PACKERS 34, CHIEFS 14: Matt Flynn and Scott Tolzien each threw for two touchdowns in their competition to back up starting quarterback Aaron Rodgers. Flynn threw for 102 yards and Tolzien had 139 in splitting reps by quarter in the evening's most closely watched position battle. EAGLES 37, JETS 7: Cody Parkey took a leg up on Alex Henery in the Philadelphia Eagles' kicking competition, making field goals of 54, 53 and 25 yards. DOLPHINS 14, RAMS 13: Matt Hazel caught a 22-yard touchdown pass from Seth Lobato with 6:15 left and Daniel Thomas had a 5-yard touchdown run for Miami, which trailed 13-0 entering the final quarter. Michael Sam was in on six tackles for the Rams, and Ethan Westbrooks had a sack for St. Louis. GIANTS 16, PATRIOTS 13: Josh Brown kicked a 37-yard field goal with 38 seconds to play and the Giants capped their first undefeated preseason since 2006. PANTHERS 10, STEELERS 0: Fozzy Whittaker ran for a 2-yard touchdown, Graham Gano added a short field goal and Carolina (2-2) held Pittsburgh (1-3) to just 185 total yards. REDSKINS 24, BUCCANEERS 10: Colt McCoy threw for 321 yards and two touchdowns to lead Washington (3-1). He completed 22 of 29 passes while also throwing a pair of end-zone interceptions. 49ERS 40, TEXANS 13: Rookie linebacker Chris Borland returned an interception 34 yards for a touchdown and third-string quarterback Josh Johnson threw three TD passes for San Francisco. RAVENS 22, SAINTS 13: Justin Tucker hit five field goals and Baltimore (4-0) wrapped up a perfect preseason. BRONCOS 27, COWBOYS 3: Brock Osweiler led four scoring drives in the final tuneup for his third season as Peyton Manning's backup in Denver. The loss gave the Cowboys their fifth winless preseason in franchise history. VIKINGS 19, TITANS 3: Teddy Bridgewater threw a touchdown in his first NFL start, Joe Banyard ran for 111 yards and the Vikings wrapped up a perfect preseason after Blair Walsh kicked four field goals. BROWNS 33, BEARS 13: Brian Hoyer drove Cleveland's starting offense to a rare preseason touchdown before turning things over to rookie Johnny Manziel. Hoyer went 6 of 8 for 69 yards on the opening drive against Chicago's backups before Ben Tate scored on a 1-yard run. Manziel threw a TD pass, finished 6 of 17 for 83 yards and ran for 55. CHARGERS 12, CARDINALS 9: Nick Novak kicked four field goals for the Chargers, connecting from 35, 39, 55 and 37 yards. Arizona's Chandler Catanzaro kicked field goals of 42, 38 and 35 yards.
