OAKLAND, Calif. - Carson Palmer was happy to get a chance to come back to the Oakland Coliseum after enjoying his brief stint here with the Raiders.The result of his comeback game made the day even sweeter.Palmer threw for 253 yards and two touchdowns and the Arizona Cardinals sent the Raiders to their 12th straight loss with a 24-13 victory Sunday.Its a great environment to play, Palmer said. This place is awesome. This place is great when youre wearing the silver and black and its a great place to play as an opponent. Great to get in here and get a win.Stepfan Taylor caught one touchdown and ran for another and Andre Ellington gained 160 yards from scrimmage for the Cardinals (5-1), who are off to their best start since 1976.Its just good to be in the drivers seat in our division, receiver Larry Fitzgerald said. Its a long year. Its only Week 7. We have a long way to go.Darren McFadden ran for a touchdown for the Raiders (0-6), who are off to their worst start to a season since losing their first 13 games in 1962 — the year before late owner Al Davis joined the franchise.This is as bad as youre going to get through the first part of the season, safety Charles Woodson said. We havent won a game. How much worse can it get than that, than not winning a game?While the Raiders are the NFLs only winless team and in the midst of their worst stretch in more than a half-century, the first-place Cardinals are playing some of their best football in years.Palmer and a stiff defence are the big reasons. Despite throwing Arizonas first interception of the season, Palmer has mostly avoided the big mistakes that often doomed him during his year and a half in Oakland.He also has shown the ability to make the key throw, with his two biggest being a 33-yard touchdown pass to Michael Floyd in the second quarter and a 22-yarder to John Brown on third-and-8 late in the fourth. That set up Chandler Catanzaros 41-yard field goal that sealed the win with 29 seconds to go.Ellington, who was slowed by a rib injury, had 24 carries for 88 yards and caught six passes for 72 more yards to take pressure off Palmer.Theres always a lot of energy and pent-up emotion when you come back and play against somebody, coach Bruce Arians said. I didnt want that to happen to him, to have to go out here and win this ballgame.Rookie Derek Carr struggled to find the big plays he had last week when he threw four touchdown passes in a 31-28 loss to San Diego. He hit one deep pass to Brice Butler, but most of his other completions were short. Carr went 16 for 28 for 173 yards.The Raiders fell behind 14-0 early, but cut it to 14-13 midway through the third period when Sebastian Janikowski hit a 53-yard field goal with new holder Matt Schaub. The Raiders made the switch after Janikowski struggled with punter Marquette King and then missed a 53-yard field goal last week.Ellington then keyed a big drive for Arizona, running for 40 yards, catching a 16-yard pass and drawing a 20-yard pass interference penalty on Miles Burris. Taylor replaced him and scored on a 4-yard run.The Raiders were unable to cross midfield on their final three drives and lost again.Palmer arrived in Oakland with much fanfare after the Raiders dealt a first- and second-round pick to Cincinnati midway through the 2011 season. But Palmer was not able to turn the Raiders into a playoff team, falling one game short his first season, and was traded following the 2012 season.Palmer got off to a fast start, throwing the two first-half touchdowns, including Floyds leaping grab over Tarell Brown. The Cardinals picked Oakland apart on third downs, converting 9 of 14 chances.Its like one of those things where you dont know what the problem is, defensive tackle Antonio Smith said. Each week youre going in trying to fix something and each week you wonder why its not working.But Carr got the Raiders back into it with a 55-yard deep strike to Butler that set up McFaddens 1-yard score. Janikowski added a field goal late in the first half after Charles Woodson intercepted Palmer.NOTES: Catanzaro tied Greg Zuerleins rookie record by making his 15th straight kick to start his career. ...

"This one, you dont get a lot of enjoyment out of," the Alberta skip said, after beating younger brother Jamie Koe from the Northwest Territories-Yukon 8-3 in eight ends Monday at the Canadian mens curling championship. "Its never fun beating them because Im always cheering for them every year theyre here," he said. "That being said, we needed a win." Alberta improved to 3-1 at the Tim Hortons Brier, at least until the evening draw, when he was set to face unbeaten Manitoba and Jeff Stoughton. The Territories fell to 1-3. "Its good that its early in the week so hopefully both of us win the rest of our games," he added. "Theyre obviously better," Jamie said of the encounters with his brother. "Were going to have to play our best and hope for some breaks but its a fair battle." Jamie Koe has represented the Territories four out of the last five years but when Kevin has been there he has always won the brother-vs.-brother tussle. Monday also saw New Brunswicks James Grattan score his first win this year against Greg Balsdon of Ontario 9-6. Grattan gave Stoughton a fight Sunday as well and said it felt good to get a monkey off his back with the win. "When we went to bed last night we felt pretty good about it," he said of the Manitoba game. "The team in the last two games has really shown up." He says getting used to the ice has been an issue. They lost their first game 13-5 and the second 10-1. "We come from an area of the world where the ice is fairly straight all the time . . Coming out here and all of a sudden youre taking the 122-foot to get to the lid and its a different ball game.dddddddddddd" Its also important to win games at the Brier if you want a reserved spot in the future. A new system is coming into place that will force the bottom finishers to compete for the right to return. Its being brought in to keep the field the same size with the addition of a Team Canada and new rinks from Nunavut and Yukon, instead of just one Territories team. P.E.I.s Eddie MacKenzie also grabbed a share of second place as he climbed to 3-1 after beating Quebecs Jean-Michel Menard. But, that could change after the evening draw. MacKenzie has already matched his combined record at his first two Brier appearances for Prince Edward Island , in 2011 and 2013. "Its definitely better than 0-5 or 0-6 like we were the last couple of times," he said. "Id say being here the last three out of four years helps for sure, playing on arena ice a little more." Saskatchewans Steve Laycock also sat at 3-1 after beating still winless Nova Scotia 5-3. "We kind of figured 3-1 or 4-0 was where wed want to be after this stretch because we do have some of the favourites coming up," he said. Nova Scotia skip Jamie Murphy isnt too thrilled at the Canadian Curling Association for the changes coming in 2015 that could see Nova Scotia have to fight for the right to play in the Brier. "Were firm believers that messing with traditions such as the Brier doesnt seem like a smart decision," he said of the new system, popularly known as relegation, although it seems anything but popular. "Were obviously biased when we say that because were probably going to be in the relegation pool."
