OAKLAND, Calif. -- Authorities say a woman jumped from the third level deck of the Oakland Raiders' home stadium, injuring herself and a man who tried to catch her.

Stadium officials say the woman plunged about 45 feet after Sunday's game at O.co Coliseum. She and the man who was one level below were rushed to the hospital for treatment.

Alameda County Sheriff's Sgt. J.D. Nelson told KTVU-TV that the woman went to an area that is closed off to the public and leaped off the edge as people below urged her not to jump.

Nelson said the unidentified woman was taken to the hospital in "very critical" condition, and the man was in stable condition.

The Raiders lost 23-19 to the Tennessee Titans in the final seconds of the game.

Why does stuff like this always seem to happen in CA stadiums?

And next week comes the rematch between the two AFC teams with the best record. This time in Arrowhead. And if neither team loses to any other team the rest of the season, then next week's winner wins the AFC West, and gets the bye week and home field advantage throughout the playoffs.

I hope the Alex Smith we saw last week stays home, and the Alex Smith we saw this week shows back up.

And I do surely hope Houston and Hali are Healthy.

That game will be a true measure of which team is the stronger contender. Both teams coming off of hard losses. Which one can better put it behind them and pull off the win?

I'd like to see KC win, just so they can split.

I think both teams will have some key players out (or playing at < 100%) due to injuries.

Denver/ NE was quite a battle. Balls popping out all over the place. Lots of big players getting injured. Patriots didn't win- they survived.

Who wants to take bets that Porter on the Raiders was paid to throw the game?

Nevermind. Coach takes the blame. Zone coverage on the ten yard line?

Tennessee's Ryan Fitzpatrick hit Kendall Wright for a 10-yard touchdown pass with 10 seconds left to beat Oakland 23-19 Sunday at the Coliseum. Cornerback Tracy Porter, in the slot, seemed to let Wright go free on an outside move for the easy touchdown catch.

"Zone coverage," Porter said. "I was playing my assignment, and they made a good throw between me and the cornerback into a short window."

Perhaps the Raiders should have played man-to-man and rushed more than three players the way Fitzpatrick was picking them apart. And shouldn't Porter have known better than to let a receiver run free?

"Tracy was fine," Raiders head coach Dennis Allen said. "It's a tough route versus the coverage that we were in. I thought they did a good job of executing.

"But if I had it to do over again, I would have been more aggressive right there and come after them. So put that one on me."

Denver got pretty physically beaten up this week in NE. Could be a factor next week - in addition to playing on the road for the second week in a row. Winner has a lock on the division. KC has a tougher remaining schedule though- at Redskins, home Colts, at San Diego and Raiders. Denver has Chargers and Tennesse at home, and at Houston and Oakland.

Did Steelers' coach Mike Tomlin try to trip Ravens' WR Jacoby Jones?

looks like he thought about it...changed his mind......?....fun times.

NFL is reviewing Tomlin's move

Tomlin was trying to help the Ravens promote their beloved Obamacare by tripping someone. He's totally innocent.

Is nail biting allowed?

Well, that's what I was afraid would happen if Alex Smith ever stopped being conservative. Yo, Houston, please put Case Keenum back on the practice squad. I want him to go free agent.

Fortunately it looks like the Chiefs defense from the first nine games is baaaaack. Mr. Eric Berry, sir, I'm sorry I haven't been giving you enough props this season. You go, my man.

Quarterback? The Chiefs don't need no stinkin' quarterback!
