Watch: Derek Carr's 36-yard flea-flicker touchdown to Raiders' WR Mack Hollins

The Raiders used a flea flicker to trick the Seahawks defense. They galloped past it for a huge touchdown, which could change the game's tide. 

On a first-and-10 early in the second quarter, Derek Carr handed it off to Josh Jacobs, who quickly tossed the ball back to Carr, who found a wide-open Mack Hollins for a 36-yard touchdown, giving the Raiders the lead in Seattle. 

It was a great play call because it caught Seattle off guard and built Carr's confidence. He's starting to regain his rhythm, throwing nine touchdowns and two interceptions over the past four games. He's proved his toughness too, coming back in after an abdomen injury in the first quarter.

Also, Hollins' breakout season continues, scoring his third touchdown through 11 games, one away from a career-high.

Dynamic plays, such as flea flickers, are imperative in a Seattle (6-4) upset and mark a season's turning point. The Raiders (3-7) lead 21-20.
