MIAMI (KTNV) — The Raiders made things close in Miami today but late mistakes had Las Vegas fall to the Miami Dolphins 34-19.
A sixth straight loss has the Raiders falling to 2-8 on the season.
There is a silver lining for the Silver and Black as Gardner Minshew's offense found life and tight end Brock Bowers shined with over 100 yards and a touchdown.
"I thought communication was clean. Obviously we had that late turnover, but I thought Gardner was efficient. Still need to get the running game going but our front, there wasn't a lot of miscues up there," head coach Antonio Pierce said in the post-game presser.
"We got to keep executing and straining a little bit more. We had opportunities, Brock had a big day, Gardner got rid of the ball quickly in the passing game. I thought they moved the ball well. It's just positive stuff. Obviously it's not good enough when you don't score enough to win."
