Oakland Raiders escape with overtime win over San Diego Chargers
A pair of potential touchdown passes fell incomplete, forcing the Raiders to settle for a 31-yard Sebastian Janikowski field goal to give the Raiders the 23-20 lead. The Raiders moved from Oakland to Los Angeles following the 1981 season and then returned in 1995.

The Goats: The Chargers’ Denzel Perryman will get some heat for his personal foul against Michael Crabtree on the Raiders’ overtime drive. The players saluted their fan bases who fear their squads are moving to the Los Angeles area.
On third-and-8 from the San Diego 43, Roberts reached out and caught a deflected pass for a 33-yard gain that helped set up the game-winning field goal by Janikowski. “I tell him all the time that when I was six, I used to pretend I was him in my living room and do that one-handed catch”.
But the Raiders got it done in overtime, and Woodson was rewarded with a Gatorade bath as Oakland gutted out a 23-20 win Thursday over the San Diego Chargers at O.co Coliseum. It could be the final home game in Oakland, which is looking to become co-tenants with San Diego next season for a new stadium in Carson, Calif. Other setups are fine – I’ve worked with ESPN and NFL fantasy football teams in the past – but seeing as I have the most experience using this scoring system, I’ll stick with using their methods of scoring. Facing third-and-10 from Oakland’s 20-yard line, Rivers attempted a pass to Danny Woodhead near the sideline but it was incomplete.
But in the end, the night belonged to No.24, who after it was over, shared the moment he made the decision that this would be his final season in the National Football League. “Last time I played defense in a game was high school, safety and corner”, Inman said. “I would have rather it had been a lopsided victory and we blew them out, but that’s the way it goes sometimes”. They just said, ‘We need somebody.’ So I said, ‘If you need me, I’m ready to go.
NOTES: The Chargers have lost seven straight division games…. Of their 11 losses, eight were by eight or fewer points, and five were by five or fewer points. “He’s a great Raider, and to be able to send him out the right way, to be able to cap a special evening like this, our last home game this year, our last chance in 2015 to make a mark here at home, I’m just really proud of the effort”. “And it doesn’t make it any easier on us to lose another one like that. We’ve got to find a way to get this game won”. Murray got 24 yards down the field as time in the second quarter ran out.
Chargers cornerback Jason Verrett breaks up a pass intended for… In the Chargers’ past four games, they allowed an average of 16.0 points. In the second half, the pass defense adjusted to the rub routes and kept San Diego out of the end zone.

“It’s a great place to see a game”, said Bob Gibson, a gas pump mechanic from Livermore whose first Raiders game was at Frank Youell Field in 1964. Ingram had a career-high 2 1/2 sacks the previous week in a victory against Miami.
