OAKLAND -- For only the second time in the last 11 games, the woeful Raiders have scored 20 points.

It should be 21, but Sebastian Janikowski's PAT attempt in the third quarter was blocked by Vince Wilfork.

Other than a 31-10 upset win at Denver three weeks ago, the Raiders hadn't scored more than 18 points since Sept. 21, when they lost at Buffalo, 24-23.

Despite their point-production woes, the Raiders did manage to beat the Jets, 16-13, in overtime here on Oct. 19, giving them two wins in their last 11 games.
