Oakland Raiders Film Room: Week 2 (HOU)

Credit: NFL Game Rewind

Late in the first quarter Houston runs a power run concept from 11 personnel (1 RB, 1 TE, 3 WRs) against Oakland’s goal line nickel package (3 DLs, 3 LB, 5 DBs). The uncovered offensive linemen block down and Houston left guard Ben Jones pulls across the line for the lead block on Raiders LB Sio Moore. DE Justin Tuck gets embarrassed on this play. He was terrible in containment all game, this play being a perfect example of his efforts. Houston TE Ryan Griffin easily manipulates Tuck, shoving him inside and completely out of the play. All it takes is a quick cut upfield and RB Foster can get into the end zone before safety help can arrive.
