ATLANTA (AP) — Deion Jones returned an interception 67 yards for a touchdown, Matt Ryan threw a pair of short scoring passes, and the Atlanta Falcons thoroughly dominated Derek Carr and the bumbling Las Vegas Raiders 43-6.
The Raiders lost their second in a row and looked very much like a pretender in the AFC playoff race.
Las Vegas produced a listless, mistake-filled performance against an Atlanta team that’s playing out the season under an interim coach.
Carr had a miserable day, fumbling the ball away three times and delivering the pick that Jones returned for his fifth career TD.
