Phillip Gaines aggravated his knee injury. Allen Bailey went down tight shoulder issue. Marcus peters got dehydrated and probably concussed. At the end of the day, the unit did enough to secure a win. Amari Cooper had a big day against a young secondary. That is true. Outside of Cooper, Derek Carr threw for less than 100 yards and the Raiders ran for only 65 yards as a team. And Dee Ford had 2 sacks. That was enough for this day.
