OAK 37 SD 29
Well, the fourth quarter made it a lot more entertaining than it should be. This whole conservative playcalling when up big is really getting old. But nonetheless, a win is a win and that all that matters and this was a great bounce back win off the bye. Stay tuned for the full recap.
Q3:
OAK 37 SD 6
Well, there's not too much action this quarter other than Michael Crabtree's TD to tack onto the lead. The Chargers are driving, probably their best drive of the game so far. Raiders just completely kept them in check for the most part of the quarter. Offense is starting to get a little too conservative by putting Helu and Olawale to run the ball; I didn't like that. At least the Raiders still have an insurmountable lead.
Q2:
OAK 30 SD 6
Relentless, that is the word I'm using to describe this quarter. Whatever the Raiders did on the bye week, I hope they continue to do that. They completely shut down Rivers and the Chargers' offense this game. Could've tacked on more points if it weren't for some costly penalties, but it is what it is. Onto the halftime report.
Q1:
OAK 10 SD 3
Usually, the Raiders after the bye week would come out sluggish. That's another check mark, denoting the change in the Jack Del Rio era. The defense knows that Philip Rivers will find a way to pick apart the atrocious secondary and just three plays in, Malcolm Smith comes up with the interception, leading up to a Latavius Murray TD. Great tone setter and goes to show that the Raiders show no rust after the bye week. The offense is driving again and they gotta convert TDs and not settle for FGs because Rivers can get hot at any moment.
