Raiders quarterback Matt McGloin was 18-of-32 for 197 yards and three touchdowns against the Texans on Sunday. McGloin rushed three times (for -3 yards) and was sacked twice.
McGloin looked composed and in control throughout the game. His receivers dropped a few spot-on passes, but they held on when it mattered -- Denarius Moore and Rod Streater caught touchdowns in the first quarter, and Mychal Rivera had a 26-yard touchdown reception in the third. In total, McGloin connected with six different players and managed to finish the day with a passing total 30 yards greater than Houston's passing yards per game average (167 yards) this season.
There's no indication if Terrelle Pryor will be able to play in Week 12 against the Titans, but McGloin acquitted himself nicely in the passing game, and had a successful starting debut.
