Despite standout performance from Kittle, San Francisco 49ers fall to Las Vegas Raiders, 213.20-191.22

George Kittle posted 21.8 points for San Francisco 49ers, the best total in the matchup and best for a TE in the league this week, but it wasn't enough to topple Las Vegas Raiders, who earned a 213.20-191.22 win. San Francisco 49ers took a 3.50-point lead on Thursday, but Las Vegas Raiders held the lead the rest of the way. They were led by Josh Jacobs, who racked up 155 yards from scrimmage and ran for 3 touchdowns for 37.5 points, and Rashaan Evans, who made 13 tackles (20 points). George Kittle (21.8 points) and Raheem Mostert (21.46) did their part for San Francisco 49ers in the loss. Las Vegas Raiders (3-4) will look to rack up another W against Kansas City Chiefs, while San Francisco 49ers (2-5) will meet New York Giants in an effort to get some positive momentum.
