Raiders End Losing Streak, Beat Jets

Sunday’s win at New York was crucial for the Raiders who deserve credit for turning it around after a 23-14 halftime deficit.

The Raiders outplayed the Jets in the second half, outscoring them 24-10 to win the 38-33 game to even their record at 4-4.

But if they fall to 4-5 next week wit a loss to the 49ers, they will have some decisions to make at the November 10 trade deadline.

In defeat, Jets RB Braelon Allen rushed for a career-high 147 yards on 21 attempts, including a 21-yard TD in the third quarter and WR Adonai Mitchell had a career-high 142 yards and a TD. QB Geno Smith was 22-of-30 passing for 290 yards, 2 TD and 1 INT.

The Milwaukee Brewers Win the World Series

Behind a dominant pitching performance from Jacob Misiorowski and timely hitting from rookie Cooper Pratt, Milwaukee closed out the series four games to one and ended a 57 year wait for its first World Series title.

After Tampa Bay avoided elimination with a dramatic extra inning victory in Game 4, the Brewers entered Wednesday determined to finish the job. Milwaukee delivered a strong performance on both sides of the ball, limiting the Rays’ offense while generating enough runs to establish control early.
