NBC Sports continues its presentation of SUNDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL this weekend as Kirk Cousins and the Washington Redskins (1-1) host Derek Carr and the Oakland Raiders (2-0) at FedEx Field in Landover, Md., in what will be just the second primetime game between the two storied franchises since the 1970 AFL-NFL merger (10/19/70). Coverage begins with FOOTBALL NIGHT IN AMERICA this Sunday, September 24, at 7 p.m. ET on NBC.
Both teams enter Week 3 coming off wins this past Sunday. Cousins led Washington to a 27-20 victory over the Los Angeles Rams with an 11-yard, go-ahead touchdown pass to RB Ryan Grant with one minute and 49 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter. Carr powered Oakland to a 45-20 win over the New York Jets, completing 23-of-28 passes for 230 yards and three touchdowns - all three to WR Michael Crabtree.
Oakland and Washington last faced off during the regular season in 2013, a Week 4
CONTEST in which the Redskins defeated the Raiders 24-14 at the Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum. The Raiders lead the series overall, 8-5, and defeated the Redskins 38-9 in
SUPER BOWL XVIII.
Calling Raiders-Redskins' are seven-time Emmy Award-winner Al Michaels (play-by-play), in his record 32nd season as
THE VOICE of the NFL's premier primetime package; 16-time Emmy Award-winner Cris Collinsworth; and two-time Emmy Award-winning sideline reporter Michele Tafoya.

SUNDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL is led by Emmy Award-winning producer Fred Gaudelli and Emmy Award-winning director Drew Esocoff.
