The Raiders will head to Green Bay to face the undefeated and defending Super Bowl champions with essentially the same team that was manhandled by Miami last weekend.Oakland coach Hue Jackson told reporters after practice on Friday that running backs Darren McFadden (foot) and Taiwan Jones (hamstring) and receivers Jacoby Ford (foot) and Denarius Moore (anklefoot) were all ruled "out" for Sunday's game at Lambeau Field.The Raiders, who are 7-5 and in a tie for first place in the AFC West with Denver but currently fall behind the Broncos in several tie-breaker scenarios, close out with games at Green Bay, home against Detroit, at Kansas City and home against San Diego.The Broncos, meanwhile, play host to Chicago this weekend and New England next week, travel to Buffalo and then close out at home against Kansas City.Reporters on the scene today in Alameda said Ford and Moore were running in agility drills off to the side at the start of practice, giving credence to the notion the playmakers could potentially be ready next week.McFadden has not played since Oct. 23, Ford since Nov. 10 and Moore and Jones since Nov. 20.
