(AP) — In Richard Seymour's eyes, Oakland's discouraging loss to the Buffalo Bills on Sunday shouldn't have come down to whether rookie Denarius Moore caught Jason Campbell's desperation pass into the end zone as time expired. Less than a week after allowing just 38 yards on the ground in a season-opening win over Denver on Monday night, the Raiders' defense was shredded by a Buffalo rush- ing game that accounted for 217 of the Bills' 481 total yards in their 38-35 comeback win. The Raiders (1-1) blew an 18-point first-half lead. ''They did a good job of scheming us and running the right plays at the right time, but there wasn't a whole lot that we did good out there in the second half,'' Seymour said. ''We didn't make the plays that we needed to. Our offense did a good job scoring points, but we didn't help them out.'' Despite Buffalo's five straight touchdown drives in the second half, Oakland still had a chance to wrestle away a win. But Da'Norris Searcy snagged the ball from Moore in the end zone as time expired. Referee Mike Carey returned to a near-empty stadium to review the final play and determine whether Searcy had intercepted Campbell's pass. It turns out there was miscom- munication between officials, as Carey was informed the replay booth had already reviewed the play and ruled it an interception. ''We're the Raiders — you think we're going to get that call?'' Seymour asked matter-of-factly. Ultimately, a blown coverage blew away Oakland's chance to start a season 2-0 for the first time since 2002. That was the last time the Raiders qualified for the playoffs, eventually falling to Tampa Bay in the Super Bowl. On David Nelson's winning 6-yard touchdown catch with 14 seconds left, the Raiders secondary left Nelson wide open in the middle of the field. ''Basically it was trying to do someone else's job,'' Oak- land defensive back Chris Johnson said. ''You have to be on the same page.'' Two plays prior, Johnson had a chance to ice it when he had the ball in his hands in the end zone with an apparent interception, but Buffalo receiver Donald Jones knocked it away. Campbell went 23 of 33 for 323 yards and two scores. ''We need to finish better,'' he said. ''When you're up 21- 3, you have to sustain leads, especially when you're on the See RAIDERS, page 2B MCT photo Cowboys kicker Dan Bailey (5) hits the field goal in overtime.The Cowboys defeated the 49ers, 27-24 in overtime at Candlestick Park in San Francisco Sunday. SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Tony Romo felt sick to his stomach. It hurt to breathe, let alone bark out the cadence in a hostile road stadium. Playing with the throbbing pain from a fractured rib, Romo rallied America's Team just as he promised he would. In a week when Romo vowed to play his best game, he delivered a gutsy comeback that looked so unlikely when he briefly came out from halftime and then returned to the locker room. Moments after the Cowboys (1-1) announced the quarterback was done for the day, there came No. 9 ready to take charge of the huddle once again. Romo hit Jesse Holley on a 77-yard completion on the Cowboys' first play of overtime that set up Dan Bailey's win- ning 19-yard field goal 2:53 into the overtime, and Dallas pulled off an improbable 27-24 victory over the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday. In one frantic span, Romo emphati- cally left his mark on the storied Cow- boys-49ers rivalry that dates back decades to all those epic matchups in the NFC title game that regularly set up Super Bowl victories by the winner. ''It's got to be one of those things that will follow him through his career. I know what it was here in the locker room at halftime. I know what he had to do to get back on the field,'' Cowboys owner See NINERS, page 2B Romo rallies Cowboys past 49ers 0 3 12 5 24 27 Sports 1B Monday September 19, 2011 Oakmont wins Red Bluff Invitational
