OAKLAND Cleveland Browns T-Shirts , Calif. (AP) — As much as the Oakland Raiders felt like they might have let a couple of winnable games slip away to start this season, they might have stolen one away from the Cleveland Browns to spoil Baker Mayfield’s first career start.Derek Carr led a game-tying drive in the final seconds of regulation after a replay review took away a Cleveland first down and the Raiders got their first win since Jon Gruden’s return to the sideline by beating the Browns 45-42 on Matt McCrane’s 29-yard field goal in overtime Sunday.The Raiders (1-3) blew second-half leads in each of the first three games and didn’t trail any of them for a single second in the first three quarters before erasing deficits of 14 points and eight points to beat the Browns (1-2-1) and give Gruden his first win since 2008.“We haven’t fixed anything yet,” Gruden said. “We have a lot of things we have to get better at. I think it is pretty obvious. We played some good football for stints.”The Raiders rode a roller-coaster in this game, falling behind 28-14 in the third quarter before rallying for a 34-28 lead in the fourth, thanks in part to two fumbles by Mayfield.But the Browns answered with two more TDs and the Raiders appeared done when Carr threw two straight incompletions from the 9 to turn the ball over on downs with less than two minutes to play.Carlos Hyde ran three times and appeared to have a first down that would have run out the clock only to have it overturned when officials ruled his elbow touched the ground short of the marker.“I definitely thought that we had the first down,” Hyde said. “But they changed the call. We got to get it right there. If we’re going to win the game, we got to get that one.”The Raiders took over at their 47 with 1:28 to go and Carr led a game-tying drive reminiscent of 2016, when he had seven fourth-quarter comebacks. After failing to deliver late in the first three games this season, Carr threw a 7-yard TD to Jared Cook with 30 seconds left and then added the game-tying 2-point conversion to Jordy Nelson.Carr finished with 437 yards passing and four TDs.“The start of this year and half of this game has been some of the hardest stuff I’ve ever had to deal with, because it’s frustrating things,” Carr said. “I feel the best — physically https://www.brownsfanshop.com/hats , mentally, all of those things that I ever have. But then I screw something up somewhere along the way. I’ll tell you this though, one thing I just said and looked to our guys and said fight.”Here are some other takeaways:BAKER’S DAYMayfield threw for 295 yards and two TDs in his first career start but also had two interceptions and lost two fumbles. Those turnovers helped prevent him from becoming the third Browns QB out of 30 to win his first start with the team since the franchise returned in 1999.“He’s going to learn,” coach Hue Jackson said. “He’s got football intelligence. Today, as he goes through it, he’ll understand, and we’ve talked about it a little bit, just how important those things are. You got to be team-protecting in certain situations, but you don’t want to rein him in, because I like the things he’s doing.”BEAST MODEAs the Raiders struggled to move the ball early in the game, Marshawn Lynch let his teammates know it on the sideline. He then responded with his biggest game in years Cleveland Browns Hoodie , running for 130 yards in his most productive game since 2014 and inspiring his teammates by running through several tackles.“He was saying basically that we’re putting the game on our backs,” left tackle Kolton Miller said. “They’re running behind us, it starts with us, he gave us really encouraging words. He said ‘I’m going to run with y’all’ and that really boosted us.”CHUBBS RUNSBrowns rookie Nick Chubb scored on runs of 63 and 41 yards, while carrying only three times all day. His 63-yard TD run was the longest by a Browns rookie since Lee Suggs had a 78-yard score on Dec. 28, 2003, and the third-longest run in the NFL this season. Chubb is also the first Browns rookie RB to surpass the 100-yard mark since Terrence West on Sept. 7, 2014.MCCRANE’S DAYThe Raiders were forced to turn to their third kicker this week when Mike Nugent was placed on IR with a hip injury after taking over for the previously injured Eddy Pineiro. They turned to rookie McCrane, who was initially signed this spring by Arizona as an undrafted free agent after setting the Kansas State record for career FGs. McCrane missed his first field goal from 47 yards and then a 50-yarder on the opening possession of OT before connecting on the game-winner.

The San Francisco 49ers announced on Sunday they have released linebacker Reuben Foster following his arrest on suspicion of domestic violence. This was Foster’s third arrest this year https://www.49ersfanshop.com/Jerick-Mckinnon-Jersey , and his second on suspicion of domestic violence. He was granted $2,000 bail in a Tampa court Sunday morning.There are a host of questions to be answered following Foster’s release, so here are a few of the nuts and bolts as to what’s next for the 49ers, Foster, and the league.Transaction and waiversThe NFL does not process transactions on Sunday, and so it will process at 1 p.m. PT on Monday. Teams will then have 24 hours to place a waiver claim on Foster, with that being processed at 1 p.m. PT on Tuesday. If a team claims him, they will take on his base salary, while the 49ers would eat the remaining prorated signing bonus money.Foster disciplineWhether or not a team claims him, he will face discipline under the NFL’s personal conduct policy. He was suspended for two games this season specific to the marijuana and weapons possession cases. The baseline suspension for domestic violence is six games, but the NFL has never been consistent in their application of domestic violence discipline. If he ends up getting disciplined for this arrest, your guess is as good as mine as to the length of the suspension.Salary capThis counts as a post-June 1st cut, which means dead money will be split between this season and next season. If we assume a team does not claim Foster off waivers, the 49ers would carry $3,678,954 in dead money this year and $2,355,660 in dead money next year. It is possible the team might try and require repayment of some of his signing bonus given the nature of the release, but there is on word yet on what they may or may not do in that regard.Depth chartFor Sunday’s game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the 49ers will start Fred Warner at the middle linebacker position DeForest Buckner Jersey , Malcolm Smith at weak side linebacker, and either Mark Nzeocha or Dekoda Watson at strong side linebacker. That will likely be the plan the rest of the season, with Elijah Lee will be the primary backup at MIKE and WILL. The team will likely promote James Onwualu from the practice squad, and/or sign a veteran option to provide depth.2019The 49ers drafted Fred Warner this past year, and he has settled in as the team’s MIKE linebacker of the future. Malcolm Smith is not a long term answer at the WILL position, so the team will likely address the position this offseason. I don’t think we necessarily see them investing a first round pick in the position, but I could see a late day two or early day three pick. We’re past the midseason mark and still have some football left. It’s time to look at all the 49ers units and discuss what we like and don’t like out of them for 2018. Any other year where the offensive line is brought up would probably lead to you all cringing. The San Francisco 49ers O-line was that bad. Sacks, pressures, there were enough holes in 2017 to make a swiss cheese green with envy. When Jimmy Garoppolo took over the reigns of the quarterback job, things improved thanks to his quick release (and possible leadership), but that didn’t erase the fact both Brian Hoyer and Jimmy Garoppolo spent more time on their back than we liked. It was obvious the 49ers needed to improve the offensive line in the 2018 offseason. We all remember my groans of “O-line, O-line, O-line.” Things began with a contract extension to Daniel Kilgore. Not the reason for the O-line’s woes, but not anything world beating either. It was when the 49ers declined Laken Tomlinson’s fifth year option that we knew change was coming.Well what happened was despite the contract, Kilgore was traded, Tomlinson got a whole new contract entirely and the 49ers went out and grabbed Weston Richburg—which prompted Kilgore’s trade in the first place. From there the 49ers drafted tackle Mike McGlinchey, shipped off Trent Brown to make room for McGlinchey and all that was left was a right guard position. Ladies and gentlemen, the new 49ers offensive line. Even with a right guard spot that perhaps could be made better since Mike Person of all people is plugged in, the 49ers have been much, much better in 2018 than they have in the last three years. They have been climbing Pro Football Focus’ offensive line rankings Garry Gilliam Color Rush Jersey , even making it to sixth overall at one point. The numbers took a dive against the Los Angeles Rams where the line allowed seven sacks, but if you watched that recent Monday Night game of the Rams against the Kansas City Chiefs, you’d know they do that to everyone. A lot of the praise comes from the run blocking. The running backs are having a huge year despite Jerick McKinnon being out for the season and Matt Breida being questionable every other week. Sure the running backs are playing well, but there’s no way they’d get these holes in 2017. Carlos Hyde and Breida had to fight for every inch, sometimes getting tackled in the backfield just as the handoff occured (how the ball never got stripped out we may never know). The pass blocking hasn’t been awful, but satisfactory. Despite all the praise, one thing is certain: The line isn’t one of the league’s best—yet. It has shown immense improvement from one season to the next and is (finally) headed in the right direction. McGlinchey has shown himself to be an absolute mauler of a pick, even at times outplaying earlier pick and former Notre Dame teammate Quinton Nelson. Staley has been reliable as always and Laken Tomlinson? Dude, what happened? Many were giving up on the guy. Weston Richburg has had his moments, but he hasn’t been a disaster. That leaves the right guard. The line is showing huge improvement despite their issues. It’s always a new injury with Joshua Garnett and Mike Person has been decent at the spot. Perhaps a 2nd round pick (No, they need a pass rusher in the first round) is in order for that final guard spot and this line is solidified. They also will need to begin figuring out what to do with Joe Staley’s retirement looming in the next couple of years (regardless of if they move McGlinchey to left tackle or not, they will need someone to fill a hole). Remember, last year, C.J. Beathard took sacks because his line couldn’t block. This year he took sacks because it seemed like he didn’t know what to do with the extra time they were buying him. Garoppolo too. Watch any sack for those two and you’ll see most of them are on the quarterback, the line bought them the time necessary to make a decision. It’s not there yet, but if there’s anything you can see a vision with, it’s that line. The rest of this season and 2019 are going to be something special. What are your impressions of the offensive line at midseason?
