NFL top moments: Raiders survive Ravens in wild OT finish on Monday Night
The Raiders survived the Ravens 33-27 in OT in a wild comeback on Monday Night Football. Here are the top moments.SEPTEMBER 14, 2021
Huge target share in opener Waller caught 10 of 19 targets for 105 yards and a touchdown in Monday night's 33-27 overtime win against the Ravens.
Impact Waller was targeted early and often, but he took a while to get going, with a couple of drops hurting his performance initially. However, once he found his rhythm, Waller consistently took advantage of man coverage, racking up the looks from quarterback Derek Carr. The star tight end comfortably led the Raiders in all major receiving categories, adding an exclamation point with a 10-yard touchdown to tie the game in the fourth quarter. Coming off his first Pro-Bowl campaign, Waller's display Monday only added to the expectation that he's in for another huge year.

Impact Waller recently returned to practice from a minor ankle issue, but the team is still playing it safe with their star tight end. That makes plenty of sense given that the Raiders' offense will run primarily through him come the regular season. Among the tight end corps, Foster Moreau is also not expected to play Saturday.
