Campbell, who also had one interception, played the first half while Kyle Boller took snaps in the second. Boller completed 7-of-9 passes for 55 yards and also ran for a score for the Raiders, who have won both their preseason games so far, both of which were on the road.

Oakland trailed 14-13 at halftime, but pulled away in the third quarter, when Slade Norris recovered a fumble in the end zone and Boller took a two-yard plunge across the goal line.

Michael Bennett powered Oakland's running game with 64 yards on 15 carries, while Louis Murphy caught three passes for 53 yards.

In two quarters of action, Jay Cutler threw for 99 yards and one touchdown on 7-of-15 passing for the Bears, who have dropped both their preseason matchups. Matt Forte rushed for 109 yards for Chicago, with the majority of them coming on an 89-yard touchdown run in the first quarter.

Bears linebacker Brian Urlacher left in the first quarter with a left calf injury and did not return, and the extent of the injury is not known.

Football Betting: Defensive Rookie of the Year Awards

Oddsmakers have released the odds for the 2009 AP NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year Award and Seattle Seahawks linebacker Aaron Curry has been made the opening favorite.

Bet on NFL Football

Seattle took Curry with the fourth overall pick in April's NFL draft and plan on inserting him into its starting lineup right away. The Hawks traded linebacker Julian Peterson in the offseason, so Curry is expected to have a significant role in Seattle's defense next year and that's one of the primary reasons he is the favorite to win the NFL ROY Award.

Oddsmakers from online sportsbook MySportsbook.com have made Curry a 5/1 favorite to win this year's NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year Award. Given that he was the best defensive prospect in this year's draft and how he'll have plenty of opportunities to make plays in '09, Curry offers a ton of value at 5/1.

Another thing working for Curry is the position he plays. A linebacker has won the defensive ROY award six straight times and eight of the last nine years. Jerod Mayo, Patrick Willis, DeMeco Ryans, Shawne Merriman, Jonathan Vilma, Terrell Suggs, Kendrell Bell and Brian Urlacher were the most recent linebackers to take home the award.

Following Curry at 5/1 are Tyson Jackson (Chiefs) at 7/1, James Laurinaitas (Rams) at 8/1, Brian Orakpo (Redskins) at 10/1, Rey Maualuga (Bengals) at 10/1 and Jerry Peria (Falcons) at 10/1.

All the players mentioned above are expected to start for their respective teams, but Jackson and Peria are going to have a tough time being recognized on a national level given they're both defensive linemen. D-linemen rarely put up the numbers that it takes to win an individual award like the ROY.

A couple of players with some value are Clay Matthews (Packers) at 12/1 and Larry English (Chargers) at 15/1. Matthews is expected to start at outside linebacker in Green Bay's new 3-4 defense and could rack up a ton of tackles. English, who was an impressive player at Northern Illinois, is expected to be a situational pass rusher for the Chargers and could rack up a ton of sacks.
