The Las Vegas Raiders are now 1-2 when they could easily be 2-1. They lost their home opener to the Pittsburgh Steelers, and at times, it looked like they gave it away to the opponent.

The game wasn't as fun to watch as maybe we had thought it would be until the fourth quarter rolled around. That is when the Raiders decided they wanted to take things more seriously.

There wasn't much to take away from the game in a positive sense. However, one thing should definitely be mentioned and needs a little love, even after a tough loss like Sunday's game.

One of the Raiders starters reached legendary status after the game on Sunday.

"Kicker Daniel Carlson reaches 600 points as a member of the Raiders, one of just six players in franchise history to reach 600 career points with the team," the Raiders PR team wrote on Twitter.

Carlson is a guy across the league known as an automatic kicker, no matter the distance. Now, he has solidified his Raider career even more.
