Davante Adams had to know this could happen.
The Raiders haven’t been as good as the Packers for a very long time, and while Derek Carr is a serviceable QB, he isn’t Aaron Rodgers.
At first, I thought he was shoving a fan that was talking trash, but on closer inspection, it was a cameraman. Here are the details via Pro Football Talk.
Raiders receiver Davante Adams was visibly frustrated with the outcome of Monday night’s game. He allowed his frustration to get the better of him.
While heading toward the tunnel after the 30-29 loss to the Chiefs, Adams shoved to the ground a man carrying a piece of equipment. The man crossed Adams’s path, and Adams gave him a two-handed shoved to the ground.
Adams had a good night, but they still took the L.
Adams’ second TD reception came right after Kelce’s last touchdown catch, when Kansas City (4-1) failed on 2-point try that left the score 30-23. But rather than kick a tying extra point, Raiders coach Josh McDaniels also went for 2, and Josh Jacobs — who had shredded the Chiefs defense all night — was stuffed at the goal line with 4:29 to go.
The Raiders got the ball back one last time with 2:29 left, and a long third-down pass to Adams down the Kansas City sideline appeared to get them in field-goal range. But the play was reviewed and Adams failed to get both feet in bounds, and Carr threw incomplete on fourth-and-1 with 47 seconds left before the Chiefs ran out the clock.
Carr finished with 241 yards passing, and Jacobs ran for 133 yards and a score, as the Raiders (1-4) lost to the Chiefs for the fourth straight time. Daniel Carlson was 3 for 3 on field goals, extending his streak to 38 in a row.
What he wouldn’t have given for a chance at No. 39.
The game of twists and turns began with the Raiders failing to score on their opening drive for the first time all season.
