• The Raiders scored 31 points in the fourth quarter and thumped the Broncos, 48-10, in the season finale at Candlestick Park.
• With the win, the team finished in third place in the Western Division with a 6-8-0 record.
• Tom Flores and Babe Parilli split time at quarterback, with Flores competing 9 of 14 passes for 145 yards and two rushing touchdowns, and Parilli completing 10 of 20 passes for 167 yards, two touchdowns through the air, a rushing touchdown, and two interceptions.
• The Examiner's Don Selby reported that head coach Eddie Erdelatz was planning to ask for a release from his contract after the season because of dissatisfaction with the “bumbling operation” of the team.
• Selby said that Erdelatz had told only close friends of his decision and that he might be persuaded to stay only if he added the title of general manager to his shingle and got a raise in pay, but that even then his decision would by no means be certain.
• When asked about the report after the game, Erdelatz said he “couldn't say where I'll be next season” and would be focusing on finding off-season jobs for his players and reviewing the team's draft choices.
• Radio color commentator Mel Venter's tenure in the post ended with the end of the 1960 season.
