Raiders passer DEREK CARR (24 of 39 for 209 yards, 1 touchdown and 1 pick) distributed his passes to nine different offensive skill position players, and he needed all those players’ efforts to help the Raiders win this game. In fact, they got several. Nothing is official yet, but the Raiders, Chargers and Rams are all expected to apply next month for the right to relocate to the Los Angeles area.

The incident, as well as earlier attacks in Paris, pushed national security to the forefront of the 2016 White House race. Results for the full sample have a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 3 percentage points.
Derek Carr’s passes weren’t crisp, wide receiver Amari Cooper was hampered by a foot injury and Oakland was outgained by the Chargers 343 total yards to 286. The Raiders also succeeded on a two-point conversion, which made the difference since Lambo forced it into overtime with a field goal.

On first down, Rivers threw an apparent 30-yard touchdown pass to tight end Ladarius Green.
Van Gaal unsure about Man Utd support after Stoke loss
United only came to life in the second half after Rooney was brought on but Stoke goalkeeper Jack Butland thwarted any hopes of a comeback.
San Diego regained the lead at 14-7 early in the second quarter on a 7-yard pass from Rivers to Dontrelle Inman. “I left the game with negative three yards, that’s all I’m going to think about”. An unsportsmanlike conduct penalty was called which put San Diego back to the 35-yard line. Quarterback Philip Rivers’ pass on fourth-and-3 fell incomplete, sealing the Raiders’ win.
Charles Woodson’s final game in Oakland – and maybe the Raiders’ – just didn’t want to end. Energy buzzed throughout the stadium, with signs aplenty honoring Woodson’s 11 years in silver and black. “Great to be a part of it”, Woodson told reporters. Replacing Woodson’s leadership won’t be easy.
Some fans made their plea for Oakland at the team’s headquarters Thursday. Carr has been sacked 13 times with six interceptions in the last four games.
Woodson got a chance to speak to the crowd after the victory, and most everyone was still in their seats. The Raiders snapped a three-game losing streak at the O.co Coliseum and improved to 3-5 at home. “It was a little much for me”. His workload should increase next season, and his rushing numbers should soar. He also scored on a 22-yard run.
The Raiders’ Latavius Murray enjoyed a strong match, including having 79 yards on 19 carries including a TD. It took them from a second-and-29 to a first down.
Wherever the Raiders play next season and into the future, in Oakland or Carson, they will never have another player or person like Charles Woodson because there is no such thing. Not only did he once again do a good job of keeping his players in the fight – even when it seemed dim – but the fact that he tried to punch the game-winner into the end zone by using Charles Woodson on offense was priceless. The Raiders closed the gap on their next possession with a 50-yard field goal by Janikowski, which tied him with Jason Hanson for the NFL’s all-time record for 50-plus yard field goals with 52.

The Raiders (7-8 overall, 3-2 AFC West) were never really in control in this game, and it took some last game heroics by their kicker, a backup receiver, and a fumble recovery for them to really secure this victory tonight.
