The Raiders can say Saturday's win was truly a team effort. Eight Raiders carried the ball and seven caught a pass. Gruden had to chuckle at his team's versatility. I don't know who's doing what some of the time. The hit of the day might have been delivered by a punter.
Penalties hurt Miami, which is nothing new.
The Dolphins were charged with eight for 55 yards, but had several others declined. The Dolphins set a team record this season with 115 penalties. The Raiders beat the Dolphins, but they didn't necessarily turn them into believers. Among the big plays by the Raiders was a 32-yard reception by running back Terry Kirby, which shouldn't have surprised Miami. Kirby is a former Dolphin.
