The Las Vegas Raiders beat the Dallas Cowboys in Week 12 in overtime, and here are the offensive grades for the Silver and Black.

The Las Vegas Raiders ended their three-game losing streak with an overtime win in a thriller against the Dallas Cowboys on Thanksgiving night with a high-powered outing by the offense, scoring 36 points in the process.

Derek Carr looked more like he did earlier in the season than he has recently, throwing for over 300 yards and keeping the 6-0 record when he does so alive.

Greg Olson’s playcalling was also a key factor in the win. With a good balance of the run and passing game, and creating mismatches with the given personnel the Raiders offense was able to keep the defense on their heels and consistently charge down the field.

With this win, the Raiders keep their play-off hopes alive, though they will need to play like this week in and week out for those hopes to materialize.

So before looking ahead to next week’s bout against the Washington Football Team, let’s us grade how each offensive unit performed on Thursday’s win.
