The San Francisco 49ers escaped Allegiant Stadium with a hard-fought 22-19 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders on Saturday afternoon, surviving a late surge behind clutch special teams play and a relentless passing attack. Robbie Chosen stole the show with a 92-yard receiving explosion, including a critical 30-yard grab that set up Jake Moody’s go-ahead 59-yard field goal—the longest of his day. San Francisco’s defense bent but didn’t break, forcing two turnovers (interceptions by Chase Lucas and Jaylen Mahoney) while sacking Raiders QBs four times, despite allowing Las Vegas to march downfield in the final minutes. The 49ers’ ground game sputtered (just 64 rushing yards), but their 284 passing yards and perfect 3-for-3 fourth-down conversions proved decisive in a game where possession time (32:24) became a silent weapon.

Las Vegas’ late rally fell short despite Aidan O’Connell’s 138-yard, turnover-plagued effort and Daniel Carlson’s flawless 4-for-4 kicking, including a 54-yard bomb. Ashton Jeanty’s 13-yard touchdown scamper and Tommy Mellott’s 42-yard kickoff return injected life into the Raiders, but costly penalties (64 yards) and two interceptions doomed their comeback bid. The loss drops Las Vegas deeper into the AFC West cellar, while San Francisco’s gritty road win keeps their playoff hopes alive—proving even on an off day, their playmakers can deliver when it matters most.
