Music blared in the locker room for the first time since early October when the Raiders beat the Titans. Along with Carlson's heroics, the Silver and Black also celebrated Ashton Jeanty setting the new Raiders rookie record for scrimmage yards in a season.

"It was everything a rivalry game and to end it off with a win — it's been a while since we got a win, so it feels good," Jeanty said.
