The Raiders won the opening coin toss and deferred. The Packers emphasized the run on their opening drive, with AJ Dillon carrying the ball five times for 16 yards.
The Packers converted a third-and-2 with a Dillon dive up the middle but the drive stalled at the Las Vegas 47 after Jordan Love couldn't connect with a deep ball down the seam intended for Jayden Reed.
The Raiders started at their own 13. Tight end Michael Mayer caught a pass across the middle for 20 on first down before Packers linebacker Quay Walker dropped Josh Jacobs for a two-yard loss.

The Raiders converted on third-and-11, though, with an 11-yard screen pass to Ameer Abdullah. Kenny Clark was flagged for encroachment on first-and-10 from the Green Bay 25, but the Packers still contained the Raiders on their next three runs to bring up fourth-and-1.
