Chargers vs. Raiders
- Philip Rivers hotter than the weather (12TD-2Int)…Chargers 3rd in NFL in pass offense (281P-per game)…lst in NFL-defense (194Y)…of course that against 3-very young quarterbacks on bad teams…RBs-Branden Oliver-Ronnie Brown will be asked to prop up weak run game…Chargers on their 4th center with loss of Doug Legursky with torn knee ligaments…OT-DJ Fluker-bad ankle and all has to hold up with poor play of RT-Willie Smith in relief role…S-Eric Weddle, socked with 22,000-fine last week will need to control the heavy hitting hammer tactics…next fine would 35,000 for personal foul….Raiders coach Tony Sporano has had 10-days to fine tune team shortcomings…QB-Derek Carr slated to start….Shall be interesting to see if Raiders try to pound the ball with McFadden-Jones-Drew combo to display toughness Sporano wants-and to keep Rivers and offense off the field….This could be a trap game.
