HBO just got some material for the third episode of "Hard Knocks" next week. The Oakland Raiders worked their way all the way down the field on Thursday night against the Arizona Cardinals. In the red zone, starting quarterback Derek Carr found wide receiver Ryan Grant wide open along the right sideline, who took it 13 yards to the house to get on the scoreboard first.

It's a safe bet that Jon Gruden was happy on that drive, as he prevented his "Chucky" persona from coming out. Well, at least until Mike Glennon and Nathan Peterman take the field.
