SEATTLE - Another close call. Another week where, no matter the improvement, the Oakland Raiders showed why they still remained winless.I think its coming. This team is far better than we were, Ill tell you that, veteran safety Charles Woodson said. Our record says what we are, but we are a far better team than what we were previously.Marshawn Lynch scored on a pair of first-half touchdown runs, Bruce Irvin intercepted Derek Carrs pass and returned in 35 yards for another score and the Seattle Seahawks beat the Raiders 30-24 on Sunday.The loss was expected. There was a reason the Raiders were more than two-touchdown underdogs going on the road to face the defending Super Bowl champions. But Oakland made the second half uncomfortable for Seattle and nearly got the bounce it needed to have one more chance at the victory in the final minutes.This thing is starting to turn, interim Oakland coach Tony Sparano said. Were playing better and better here as we go on. Weve just got to get all phases to play better so that we can get the feeling of what its like to be in their locker room right now.Down 24-3 at halftime, the Raiders twice pulled within one score. Oakland got a spark from its special teams when Denico Autry blocked Jon Ryans punt on the first possession of the second half and Brice Butler recovered the ball in the end zone for a touchdown. It was the first punt block for a touchdown against Seattle since 2003 and the second for Oakland in the past two seasons.After another brief possession by the Seahawks, T.J. Carrie returned Ryans punt 27 yards to the Seattle 30. Carr hit Darren McFadden for 23 yards and on fourth-and-goal at the 1, Rivera hauled in a pass at the back of the end zone to cut Seattles lead to 24-17.Then down 30-17 in the fourth quarter, Carr led one more scoring drive hitting Rivera again on a 1-yard TD with 1:52 left to pull within six. Sebastian Janikowskis onside kick was misplayed by Seattles Cooper Helfet, but Jermaine Kearse fell on the loose ball and Seattle ran out the clock to hand the Raiders (0-8) their 14th straight loss dating to last season.I know you all would like it easier and smoother and cleaner and all that, but its a battle. Suck it up, Seattle coach Pete Carroll said.Oakland could not overcome its first-half mistakes that included two interceptions by Carr. Irvin tipped Carrs pass intended for James Jones, located the ball in the air then beat Carr to the pylon for his first career touchdown. Later in the first half, Richard Sherman got his first interception of the season, getting better position than Andre Holmes on a back-shoulder pass and pulling in the pick with his left hand. T.J. Carrie also fumbled a kickoff that Hauschka recovered.In the first half, I was doing too much, Carr said. In the second half, I came out and was like, You know what, Ive just got to do my job and trust everyone else will do theres and all these things. You saw how we battled in the second half.Carr was 24 of 41 for 194 yards passing, but the Raiders had no run game. Already the worst in the NFL, Oakland finished with 37 yards rushing.Lynch finished with 67 yards rushing and another 76 receiving, but the day could have been far more productive for Seattles bulldozing back. Lynch had gains of 43, 20 and 11 yards on either runs or passes called back by penalties. He scored on a 3-yard run on Seattles opening drive, carrying Oakland defenders and teammates into the end zone. His 5-yard run at the end of the first half gave the Seahawks a 21-point lead that seemed plenty comfortable at the time.Not all was perfect for Seattle. Russell Wilson struggled through one of his worst passing games and the Seahawks failed to capitalize on numerous chances to rout the winless Raiders. Wilson was 17 of 35 passing for 179 yards with stretches of inconsistency. Seattle was also limited by injuries including three starters on the offensive line out at one point of the second half.Whatever I was trying to do, it just wasnt working, Wilson said. But, the thing is, we won.NOTES: Janikowski hit from 48 yards in the first quarter, but missed a 51-yarder on the final play of the first half. ...

Seattle paid tribute to the recent school shooting at Marysville-Pilchuck High School with a moment of silence before the game and MP decals on the Seahawks helmets.

The Los Angeles Clippers defence and the Knicks general ineptitude both played a role in the unsurprising finish to a meeting of two teams headed in opposite directions.LOS ANGELES, Calif. - The Los Angeles Kings spent much of the afternoon trapped in their own end while the Minnesota Wild pelted them with 41 shots.Thanks to Jonathan Quick and two more timely contributions from That 70s Line, the Kings are still perfect on their homestand.Quick made 40 saves and Tyler Toffoli had a goal and an assist in the Kings fourth straight victory, 2-1 over the Minnesota Wild on Sunday.Toffoli scored an early power-play goal and Tanner Pearson added a third-period goal for the defending Stanley Cup champions, who are dominating their six-game homestand despite long stretches of indifferent offensive play.I dont think weve had our game for the last little while, centre Jarret Stoll said. Were winning on penalty-killing and goaltending.Thats enough when the champions can get incredibly consistent production from That 70s Line — the jersey-number-inspired nickname for Jeff Carters combo with youngsters Toffoli and Pearson. The trio has scored 11 of Los Angeles 14 goals this season.The NHLs best defensive team last season is back in top form again. Cookes goal was just the third by Los Angeles opponents in 245 minutes during the homestand, and Quick was stellar in the Kings crease after tying Rogie Vachons franchise record with his 32nd career shutout Thursday.Sometimes on a longer homestand, it gets to be the same thing every day, so we knew we had to get up for these guys, Quick said. Its good to get that level of competition on a homestand.Niklas Backstrom stopped 14 shots and Matt Cooke scored with 13:13 to play for the Wild, who lost back-to-back games in Southern California despite largely impressive performances.I feel like we controlled a lot of the play, but Quick played a fantastic game, Minnesota forward Zach Parise said about his U.S. Olympic teammate. I guess everyone has kind of grown accustomed to seeing a game like that out of him. I like how were playing. Our system is working really well, so well be fine. We just played two very good teams, and we played very well as a whole in both of the games. We just couldnt find a goal.Los Angeles held the Wild scoreless on five power plays, extending Minnesotas season-opening drought to 0 for 16.dddddddddddd The Wild repeatedly cycled the puck in the Kings end, but Quick was on top of almost everything that came his direction.Theres not much that we can change besides scoring goals, Minnesota forward Thomas Vanek said. Its not like were trying to be too pretty. We were shooting a lot. We were tipping. We were going for loose rebounds. But Quick was on his game, which we all knew. Hes a world-class goalie, and he showed that today.Backstrom was solid in his first start of the season for Minnesota. He hadnt played since Jan. 30 after undergoing surgery on his abdomen and hip last season.Toffoli jumped on a loose puck to score the Kings second power-play goal in 19 tries this season — and Minnesotas first power-play goal allowed — after Mike Richards pass deflected off Ryan Suters skate in the crease.Minnesota dominated long stretches of the first two periods, and rookie Christian Folin sparked the Wild when he sent Anze Kopitar into the boards with a ferocious check, prompting Richards to instigate a fight.Pearsons linemates set up his team-leading fifth goal early in the third period, with Toffoli feeding him in the slot for a one-timer.Cooke finally scored on a backhand when he was left unguarded in front of Quick, whose shutout streak ended at more than 111 minutes.Former Minnesota forward Marian Gaborik missed his third straight game for the Kings, and defenceman Jake Muzzin still hasnt played this season. Both Stanley Cup winners are out with injuries.NOTES: Minnesota scratched rookie D Matt Dumba, the last player to touch the puck on the turnover that led to Corey Perrys winning goal for Anaheim on Friday night. D Keith Ballard also was a healthy scratch. ... Both teams have the next three days off. Los Angeles hosts Buffalo on Thursday, and Minnesota returns home to face Arizona. ... Minnesotas Jason Zucker barely avoided serious injury when Kyle Cliffords skate blade nearly grazed his throat after Zucker tripped Clifford in the second period. ' ' '
