Defensive Tackle Justin Ellis
For the second time in as many road trips to start the 2016 season, the Raiders returned home with a victory on Sunday night after another down-to-the-wire matchup in Nashville. The Silver and Black flipped the script in Week Three, as this time the defense played lights out and kept the Titans at bay in the game's final minute to seal the win.
There were lots of standout performers in the game – running back Latavius Murray found the end zone for the third straight game, safety Karl Joseph made his debut in the starting lineup, and defenders Bruce Irvin, Sean Smith, and Reggie Nelson showed why they were big-ticket acquisitions this offseason. Naturally, the win brought a lot of praise from the media, and the team was thrilled to move to 2-1. Check out some of best reactions on social media during and after the game:
