11:14 pm
>> jim: actually, you know you couldn't. the return out across the 20. kevin dorsey. let's take you to the afc north since we're going to open up thursday night football on cbs with the steelers and ravens, of course, division winner last year, cincinnati. they're looking to even be better this year, marvin lewis. how about the steelers? are they going to get back on top? looking out of sync last night on offense. how about the ravens. how will they respond after sitting out the postseason? lastly, all those questions about cleveland. hoyer is going to start the season at pittsburgh. what do you think about that? >> phil: i think they made the right decision. if you want to run your offense, you start brian hoyer but they have enough weapons on the offensive side for the cleveland browns to be a serious team and sneak out there and win nine or 10 games.
11:15 pm
>> jim: the ravens. last season coming off a super bowl injury and did not back that up with a postseason trip. >> phil: i say this about baltimore, premier quarterbacks around the nfl, they always have top-flight nfl lines. the team does whatever it takes. last year, pittsburgh and baltimore, their offensive lines got away from them and their quarterbacks didn't play as well as they wanted. >> jim: two-minute warning. here in the fourth quarter. wondering what that is? that, my friends, is everything. and with the quicksilver card from capital one, you earn unlimited 1.5% cash back on everything you purchase. not just "everything at the hardware store." not "everything, until you hit your cash back limit." quicksilver can earn you unlimited 1.5% cash back on everything you could possibly imagine. say it with me -- everything. one more time, everything! and with that in mind...

11:17 pm
>> jim: just to wrap it up. with two minutes to go, we did not have a chance on the front side of it to talk about the bengals who are the reigning division champions out of the afc. >> phil: they've got so many returning players on the offensive side. jeremy hill, exciting running back from l.s.u. to add to that offense. the bengals, the one big worry about them, depth. do they have back-ups in case they lose a few players? i don't know. andy dalton. we finished the year last year with him. looks good so far in preseason.
11:18 pm
got a new contract. they're never going to get off him until he wins a playoff game. >> jim: we want to say regarding sio moore who was carted off the field in the first half with a neck injury is what the raiders have report to us. he's been taken again to the local hospital for observation. we don't have more information to pass along at this time but our thoughts are with him and hopefully some good news will be revealed here in the next couple hours. >> phil: the good news is, i hope for sio moore's family and friends is that the raiders are in contact with them so they have all the latest information and how things are going and you are right, our thoughts and prayers are with them. >> jim: the raiders have called a time out. not sure why.
11:19 pm
1:10 to go. they're going to get mcgloin back out there for a few more snaps. >> phil: there are always reasons why. i don't think it's as much for the quarterback. it might be let's see these receivers. keep giving them opportunities. it would not surprise me to see the raiders next week in their final preseason game play their starting offense and keep looking to build on what they've tried to accomplish so far this preseason. >> jim: we talked with dennis allen about an early look at what he thought he would do for the final preseason game. he did not expect to play schaub in that game he said tousa i couple days ago, derek carr appearance plus matt mcgloin. jenkins on the return fighting for a roster spot, special-teamer a year ago who returned a fumbled kickoff on thanksgiving day at dallas for a touchdown to open that game. >> phil: jim, you talk about
11:20 pm
these quarterbacks tonight, green bay, i thought all their quarterbacks were sharp with some of what they did, maybe not the receiver and the connections but the raiders, i thought matt mcgloin, everything we have seen in the first preseason games continues to get better and if it was me, if i was matt schaub i would want to play some next week to get some rhythm, to get more confident and to get his teammates confident in what he can do on the field. it's been a rough preseason. the numbers lie a little when you look at what he's done. >> jim: that ball deflected at the line. >> phil: even when you're a veteran quarterback you like to have positive results in the preseason. >> jim: adrian hubbard getting a hand on it. mcgloin last year in one of his starts. he looked good in that game and i know he's going against not the starting unit or defensive unit of green bay but even looks
11:21 pm
better tonight. >> phil: i think you can see it physically. >> jim: trows like that should have been caught. throws it a little behind criner, but that should have gone for about 20. >> phil: that's a routine nfl catch. the raiders have done it too. they have not made enough contested catches, hard catches, the defenders close to them, they always let the defender get their hand in there and they've got to be more aggressive. it's football. the aggressor always wins. >> jim: third and 10. mcgloin. he has the hookup with criner, who makes the tough catch on this occasion. >> phil: a terrific throw, a guy coming free and mcgloin stayed on his back foot and put the perfect touch on it. >> jim: dennis allen told us "this game is a barometer for us, we've got to show we can go on the road and when we have a
11:22 pm
tough road assignment we can play well" to the sideline to holmes who tiptoes for a big gain. big barometer. what do you think he takes out of it? >> phil: a lot of positives. i really do. this is not the typical, unorganized -- or disorganized raider football team, jim. i don't care if it's the back-ups. these are really a lot of quality throws by matt mcgloin. i can't get over how his arm has got so much more pop than last year. >> jim: definitely can see it. that is broken up. ryan white, who denied the pass to george atkinson iii, george atkinson the son of the great defensive back for the raiders.
11:23 pm
soul patrol with jack tatum, willie brown and skip thomas, that remarkable secondary and those incredible years for the raiders. his dad still a part of the organization. does a lot of broadcast work for them. his son trying to make the team. mcgloin to the end zone. that's a nice catch. again, brice butler. brice butler outbattling -- you talked about you've got to be the aggressor. >> phil: a couple nice contested catches and we knew why dennis allen called the time out. let these guys get more routes downfield. one thing about the raiders, not a dink-and-dunk offense. they hammer that football downfield when they throw it. a lot of pressure on the offensive line to provide time and then pressure on these quarterbacks to make downfield throws. >> jim: touchdown has been confirmed. they go for two.
11:24 pm
a running play. atkinson finds the end zone. >> jim: do you think they'll onside kick? atkinson able to go in for two. he grew up around this team as a young man. went off to play football for notre dame. their all-time leader at notre dame in kick-return yardage. number 43, 1968 to 1977, came out of the draft class right after the raiders had lost super bowl ii to green bay, came out of that draft class and had a stellar career, did his father. >> phil: exciting -- excited, isn't he, you can tell, he's breathing deep, to see him
11:25 pm
get a chance in the return game. he starred in that for the fighting irish as i mentioned, their school all-time leader in kick-return goessling boots it away. no need for an onside kick. dennis allen got what he wanted out of that time out. a few more throws for mcgloin, confidence for him, confidence for criner and a whole lot for -- i've got to think brice butler will make this football roster. >> phil: he showed up. the raiders have a lot of guys that look the part and the one i was waiting for tonight, i thought they might try to showcase him was greg little. he never got to be part of the pass willing game. didn't see him play that much >> jim: one catch on the night after being jettisoned by the browns where he had a bad case of the drops, former
11:26 pm
second-round pick and not seeing that much action tonight. the game is over. the packers take it 31-21. coming up next for most of you, your late local news. aaron rodgers with a greeting there to matt schaub. eddie lacy saw one series and he was dominant. for phil simms, tracy wolfson and mike carey, jim nantz, so long from green bay, we'll see you tomorrow, golf at 3:00 eastern time. you have been watching the nfl on cbs. >> cbs sports thanks you for watching this presentation of the national football league.
