This article references E.J. Manuel, Ej Manuel and more! In his first start as a Raider, EJ Manuel played his heart out, but was unable to do quite enough to overcome his poor defense, finishing with 159 yards passing, 15 yards rushing, and one passing touchdown. Manuel played as best as he could, but the Raiders' current funk overtook him, as the team was down two scores early and had to play from behind the entire game.
