Oakland came out on Sunday with an emphatic answer.
The Raiders had by far their best performance of the season as they went toe-to-toe with what's been one of the best teams this season. San Diego entered Sunday's game with an offense and defense that are both ranked among the NFL's best, and Oakland matched them blow for blow over four quarters.
As ESPN.com's Bill Williamson noted, Sparano made a point after the game that moral victories don't mean anything, and that's true in the standings. But it can't be denied that it'll certainly mean something in the locker room.
Although Oakland is still winless, the team finally found some things it can build on going forward. If the Raiders can maintain this level of play, the wins will come.
Here are the grades for every position group on the roster.
