The 2013Oakland Raidersseason was the franchise's 44th season in the
National Football League (NFL), the 54th overall and the second under
head coachDennis Allen. With a 4–12 record, the Raiders secured their eleventh consecutive non-winning season, and missed the playoffs for an eleventh consecutive season. The Raiders entered the season with a new quarterback in
Terrelle Pryor. Pryor started off the season in impressive fashion, with the team almost pulling off the upset in Week 1 against the
Indianapolis Colts, and defeating the
Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 2. The team and Pryor eventually cooled down, resulting in Pryor being benched for
Matt McGloin in the game against the
Houston Texans. Before this game, history was made in the game against the
Philadelphia Eagles when Eagles quarterback
Nick Foles threw 7 touchdown passes, the most passing touchdowns the Raiders had ever allowed in its history. Prior to the season starting, the Raiders brought back defensive back
Charles Woodson, who spent the last 7 years with the
Green Bay Packers.
^[a] The Raiders traded their first-round selection (No. 3 overall) to the
Miami Dolphins in exchange for the Dolphins' first- (No. 12 overall) and second- (No. 42 overall) round selections.
^[c] The Raiders traded their fourth-round selection (No. 100 overall) to the
Tampa Bay Buccaneers in exchange for the Buccaneers' fourth- (No. 112 overall) and sixth- (No. 181) round selections.
^[d] The Raiders acquired an additional sixth-round selection — No. 176 overall, along with a conditional
2014 selection in a trade that sent quarterback Carson Palmer and one of their seventh-round selections (No. 219 overall; previously acquired in a trade that sent
wide receiverLouis Murphy to the
Carolina Panthers) to the
Arizona Cardinals. The Raiders later traded the No. 176 selection to the
Houston Texans in exchange for the Texans' sixth (No. 184 overall) and seventh- (No. 233 overall) round selections.
The Raiders did not have a selection in the fifth round, as they traded their fifth-round selection (No. 138 overall) to the
Seattle Seahawks in exchange for
linebackerAaron Curry.
This game was moved to an 8:35 p.m. PDT kickoff, and from CBS to NFL Network as a "special edition" of Thursday Night Football, as extended time was required to convert the field back from its baseball configuration due to an
Oakland AthleticsAmerican League Division Series game the previous night.[1]
