HENDERSON, Nev. -- Aidan O'Connell has seen this movie before. In fact, he starred in it.
So forgive the second-year quarterback if déjà vu has him feeling a certain way, as O'Connell and the Las Vegas Raiders (4-12) head into Sunday's season finale against the playoff-bound Los Angeles Chargers (10-6), who are playing their best football of the season.
Especially with O'Connell's efficient play essentially knocking the Raiders out of a draft slot that would have allowed them to select a quarterback of their choosing, without having to trade up.
Last year, O'Connell threw eight touchdown passes without an interception in the Raiders' final four games; Las Vegas went 3-1 in that stretch.
