Raiders running back Darren McFadden was supremely ineffective on the ground, gaining 9 yards on 12 carries in the loss at Denver. But he threw a scoring pass -- his first NFL passing touchdown -- and scored on a 1-yard run to account for two of Oakland's three touchdowns.
In the third quarter, McFadden took a pitch from Terrelle Pryor, rolled right and threw a 16-yard strike to Marcel Reece in the end zone. It was the second NFL pass attempt for McFadden, who tossed seven touchdowns at Arkansas.
McFadden also found paydirt diving for the pylon with just over a minute left in the game. Counting the passing score, McFadden is up to three touchdowns this season. He'll face the Redskins in Week 4.
