Raiders and 49ers' next opponents

Published: Wednesday, Nov. 19, 2008 - 12:00 am | Page 3C

49ers (3-7) at Dallas (6-4)

When: 10 a.m. Sunday.

Where: Texas Stadium, Irving, Texas.

TV: Ch. 40.

Radio: KFBK (1530 AM); KNBR (680 AM).

Line: Cowboys by 10 1/2.

LAST WEEK

49ers: Defeated the St. Louis Rams 35-16. The 49ers scored on five consecutive drives in the first half for Mike Singletary's first win. Quarterback Shaun Hill looked impressive spreading the ball around.

Cowboys: Defeated the Washington Redskins 14-10. Quarterback Tony Romo (broken right little finger) returned to the lineup just in time to give the Cowboys a victory in a must-win situation.

Skinny: Despite the 49ers' impressive victory, it's hard to escape one cold fact: The three wins this season have come against teams with a combined record of 4-26.

Raiders (2-8) at Denver (6-4)

When: 1:05 p.m. Sunday.

Where: INVESCO Field at Mile High, Denver.

TV: Ch. 13.

Radio: KHTK (1140 AM); KSFO (560 AM).

Line: Broncos by 9 1/2.

LAST WEEK

Raiders: Lost to the Miami Dolphins 17-15. Oakland could have won the game – despite not scoring an offensive touchdown for the 13th consecutive quarter – if it held Miami on fourth and five late.

Broncos: Defeated the Atlanta Falcons 24-20. Jay Cutler's nine-yard touchdown pass gave Denver the lead as the Broncos denied Atlanta rookie quarterback sensation Matt Ryan's late comeback bid.

Skinny: Denver embarrassed the Raiders 41-14 on "Monday Night Football" to start the season. It shouldn't be pretty with the Raiders' offense still misfiring.

Sacbee.com is happy to provide a forum for reader interaction, discussion, feedback and reaction to our stories. However, we reserve the right to delete inappropriate comments or ban users who can't play nice. (See our full terms of service here.)

Here are some rules of the road:

• Keep your comments civil. Don't insult one another or the subjects of our articles. If you think a comment violates our guidelines click the "report abuse" button to notify the moderators. Responding to the comment will only encourage bad behavior.

• Don't use profanities, vulgarities or hate speech. This is a general interest news site. Sometimes, there are children present. Don't say anything in a way you wouldn't want your own child to hear.

• Do not attack other users; focus your comments on issues, not individuals.

• Stay on topic. Only post comments relevant to the article at hand. If you want to discuss an issue with a specific user, click on his profile name and send him a direct message.

• Do not copy and paste outside material into the comment box.

• Don't repeat the same comment over and over. We heard you the first time.

• Do not use the commenting system for advertising. That's spam and it isn't allowed.

• Don't use all capital letters. That's akin to yelling and not appreciated by the audience.

You should also know that The Sacramento Bee does not screen comments before they are posted.
