The 2016 Oakland Raiders season was filled with highlights. Here are the top 10 plays of the year.

The 2016 Oakland Raiders season was one to remember — mostly filled with thrilling comebacks and highlight plays. Save for the heartbreak at the end of the year, this was a phenomenal year for the Silver and Black.

Along the way of ending a non-winning record and playoff drought that had spanned 14 years, the Raiders created plenty of highlight plays. It was a tough task to narrow it down to just ten plays, so just for fun, here we’ll start with top play #11.

Honorable Mention: Donald Penn’s TD

Before we get to the Top 10, it’d be disrespectful to not include the “fat guy touchdown” from our very own Donald Penn.

Trailing by 7 points early in the third quarter, Penn looked like a tight end out there, showing off some nice quicks for a big fella. The touchdown tied the game, and was the fourth of his career.

Alright, now let’s get into the Top 10.
