OAKLAND — How the Raiders graded in a 20-16 loss Sunday to the Jacksonville Jaguars at the Coliseum:

PASS OFFENSE D-plus

Derek Carr passed for 221 yards in the first half (14 of 22) and a touchdown and only 46 yards in the second half. Tyrell Williams started things off with a 40-yard touchdown grab on a seven-play, 75-yard drive to open the game but later had a huge drop in the third quarter. He had only one other catch in the game as wide receivers were virtually non-existent. Darren Waller caught eight passes for 122 yards, with six catches for 106 yards coming in the first half.  The pass protection was not good, as Carr was sacked four times.

RUN OFFENSE C

Josh Jacobs returned to action and carried 24 times for 89 yards, averaging 3.7 yards per carry. His longest run was nine yards. The only runs over 10 yards were a 12-yard scramble by Carr and an 11-yard run by Richard. The Raiders finished with 128 yards on 32 carries. The Raiders had 53 yards rushing in the second half when they hoped to move the chains and put the agme away. DeAndre Washington had 16 yards on six carries.

PASS DEFENSE C-minus

Gardner Minshew’s entire first half production was essentially a 55-yard pass on his first throw to Keelan Cole which led to a Josh Lambo field goal He got better in the second half, completing 14 of 19 passes for 201 yards and getting out of trouble to complete passes. Trailing 16-3, Minshew led the Jaguars to a 43-yard field goal by Lambo late in the third quarter and 79, and 65-yard scoring drives resulting in 6 and 4-yard touchdown passes to Chris Conley. The Raiders had sacks by Maxx Crosby and Dion Jordan.

RUN DEFENSE B

Leonard Fournette was held to 42 yards on 15 carries, and 17 of those yards came on one carry. The most dangerous ballcarrier was Minshew, who had 27 yards on five carries. It was a much better performance against a big back than the previous week when Derrick Henry had 103 yards on 18 carries before being removed from the game in the third quarter.

SPECIAL TEAMS C-minus

Daniel Carlson missed a 50-yard field goal in the fourth quarter, then after a Jacksonville penalty got another shot from 45 yards. And missed again. It would have put the Raiders up 19-13 and then a kickoff would have likely given them more than 65 yards to go. A.J. Cole placed three punts inside the 20-yard line and had a 39.8 net with a long of 52 yards. Michael Walker had a 35-yard kickoff return for Jacksonville.

COACHING D

Whatever it is the Raiders tell their team at halftime is not working. The were blanked in the third quarter as usual, giving up a Josh Lambo field goal, and are losing that quarter 101-20. The collapse continued into the second half. Pretty much everything backfired from an execution and coaching standpoint, including Jon Gruden’s decision to twice have Daniel Carlson attempt field goals from 50 and 45 yards. He missed the first one, Gruden had him try it again, and he missed the second. The Raiders seemed stunned afterward they had actually lost the game. They aren’t good enough to be that comfortable.
