New York Jets

Brandon Marshall/Eric Decker (Wide Receivers): Marshall had another big game but did not find the end zone as he was battling injuries throughout the entire game. Marshall injured his toe and ankle which led to him missing a few snaps on the field. Marshall finished the day with 9 receptions on 18 targets for 108 yards. Decker had a quieter day than Marshall's but stayed healthy and found the end zone. Decker finished the game catching 6 out of 7 targets for 60 yards and the TD.

Chris Ivory (Running Back): Ivory had nowhere to run today against a surprisingly stout Raiders defense. Ivory carried the ball 15 times however only gained 17 yards. He also managed to catch 3 out of his 5 targets for 24 yards.

Oakland Raiders

Amari Cooper/Michael Crabtree (Wide Receivers): Cooper was shadowed by Revis for most of the game limiting his production. This led to a huge game from Crabtree who was clearly better than an aging Antonio Cromartie. Cooper finished his day hauling in 5 out of 9 targets for 46 yards. Crabtree on the other hand caught 7 out of 12 targets for 102 yards and a touchdown.

Latavius Murray (Running Back): Murray had one of his biggest games of the season as he carried the ball 20 times for 113 yards and caught 1 out of his two targets for 6 yards. Murray has earned back his RB2 status against this tough defense.
