Janikowski’s long FG leads Raiders to 16-13 OT win
Sebastian Janikowski bailed out Oakland coach Tom Cable in his
home debut as Raiders coach.
Janikowski’s team-record 57-yard field goal with 2:30 left in overtime gave the
Raiders a 16-13 victory over Brett Favre and the New York Jets on Sunday.
The game only went to overtime because Cable called a late timeout that negated
Jay Feely’s missed field goal at the end of regulation. Feely made good on his
second attempt, a 52-yarder with 3 seconds left that sent the game to overtime.
There the teams traded punts on the first five possessions before JaMarcus
Russell hit Javon Walker for 16 yards and Zach Miller for 27 to move the Raiders
(2-4) into range...

Preview:
The last time Brett Favre played in Oakland, he was wearing a
different uniform and grieving the death of his father. Five years later, Favre
returns as a member of the New York Jets to face the Raiders on Sunday for the
first time since one of his most dominant and emotional performances. One day
after his father, Irvin, died of a heart attack, Favre played in front of a
national audience on Monday night with a heavy heart and led Green Bay to a 41-7
victory at Oakland...
Pick: This is our second best pick of the week right
behind the Texans as the Raiders are just in disarray, and Favre has continued
to be better than anyone thought possible. Jets 27 - Raiders 17
Notable:
They call Oakland the Black Hole, and it appears the Raiders
have fallen in, having lost eight of their last nine games. Things won't get
much easier against Brett Favre and the Jets. Favre has thrown 13 touchdown
passes in his five games as a Jet
