Geno Smith threw for 362 yards with nine completions of 20 or more yards — the most by a Raiders quarterback in a single game since at least 1991 — as Las Vegas rallied from a third-quarter deficit to beat New England 20-13 at Gillette Stadium on September 7, 2025. Isaiah Pola-Mao’s interception of Drake Maye with 9:39 left in the third quarter was the pivot, setting up Ashton Jeanty’s go-ahead 3-yard touchdown run that capped a five-play, 71-yard drive and gave the Raiders a lead they never surrendered.

New England’s red zone conversion rate was the clearest measure of the loss — the Patriots reached the Las Vegas 20 three times and scored a touchdown once, with two drives ending in field goals and the deficit at 20-13 proving too large for a late onside kick that rolled out of bounds with under 20 seconds left. Crosby’s first-quarter sack was his 60th since 2019, making him one of five players to reach that mark in the span alongside T.J. Watt, Myles Garrett, Trey Hendrickson, and Nick Bosa — the kind of company that requires no further explanation.

I'm Sean L. Garcia, a Swedish-born American journalist based in Washington with over six years of experience reporting across local publications and digital media. I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Journalism and have spent the better part of my career covering the full spectrum of news, from breaking world affairs and domestic politics to sports analysis, consumer technology, automotive industry developments, the business of entertainment, celebrity culture, gaming, health, and the cultural moments that define how people actually live. I launched Daily Info Magazine on April 05, 2026, because I wanted to build one publication where readers never have to go elsewhere, a destination backed by real reporting, proper sourcing, and an editorial team that takes accuracy seriously across every beat we cover. I serve as Editor-in-Chief and continue to report, write, and publish alongside our team of writers, researchers, and editors every single day.
