The Las Vegas Raiders were part of some thrilling finishes last season, both on the right and wrong side of it.

One of the more significant games for the Silver and Black in the 2022 season actually came in a loss in Week 17, when the Raiders hosted the San Francisco 49ers.

The team faced a then 12-4 San Francisco team in its first game without its former franchise quarterback, Derek Carr since it had been announced Carr was to sit the remainder of the season.

With their backs against the wall, the Raiders put up one of their best fights of the season, taking the 49ers to overtime before falling to a game-clinching field goal.

NFL Network recognized this game from Jan. 1 as one of the Top-10 best contests from last season.

The network ranked the game at No. 9 on its list.

Former Raider quarterback Jarrett Stidham started his first career and threw for 365 yards and two touchdowns. 

Davante Adams finished with 153 receiving yards and two touchdowns.

San Francisco would eventually climb its way to the NFC title game.

Here's NFL Network's entire list:

10. Carolina Panthers at Atlanta Falcons, Week 8

9. 49ers at Raiders, Week 17

8. Kansas City Chiefs at Cincinnati Bengals, Week 13
