Raiders Control Second Half, Defeat Eagles 24–14 in Week 15

PHILADELPHIA, PA - The Las Vegas Raiders entered Week 15 trying to stay afloat in the playoff picture, and behind a poised offensive effort and timely defensive stops, they walked out of Lincoln Financial Field with a 24-14 win over the Philadelphia Eagles.

Las Vegas came in at 5-8 under head coach Max Farias, while the Eagles were looking to build momentum at 7-6. Instead, the Raiders seized control after halftime and never let Philadelphia regain its footing.

Early Scores Set the Tone

Philadelphia struck first, leaning on Saquon Barkley early. The Eagles running back capped an opening drive with a short touchdown run to give the home team a 7-0 lead.

Las Vegas responded with points of its own, settling for a Daniel Carlson field goal late in the first quarter before pulling even in the second. Jalen Milroe found Jakobi Meyers for a touchdown just before halftime, matching Barkley's second rushing score and sending the teams into the break tied at 14-14.

Raiders Take Control After Halftime

The game shifted decisively in the third quarter. Las Vegas opened the half with a methodical drive that ended with Raheem Mostert powering into the end zone, giving the Raiders their first lead of the afternoon.

From there, the Raiders' defense tightened. Philadelphia struggled to sustain drives, while Las Vegas continued to control the tempo and field position.

Closing It Out on the Ground

Las Vegas put the game away early in the fourth quarter when Ashton Jeanty punched in a short touchdown run, extending the Raiders' lead to 24-14.

The Eagles were unable to generate a response, as the Raiders defense limited explosive plays and forced Philadelphia into difficult third-down situations down the stretch. Carlson's steady kicking and the Raiders' balanced rushing attack ensured there would be no late comeback.

Up Next

The Raiders will hit the road in Week 16 for a matchup against the Houston Texans, looking to carry momentum into another pivotal AFC contest. The Eagles will also be on the road next week, traveling to the nation’s capital to face the Washington Commanders as they try to steady themselves in a tightening NFC playoff race.
