Prior to the Oakland Raiders taking on the San Diego Chargers in Week 5 regular season action, we highlighted three matchups that would be crucial in determining the end result of Sunday’s game.
The Silver and Black started off division play on a positive note, beating the San Diego Chargers 34-31, so before we look ahead to the next team on the schedule, the Kansas City Chiefs, let’s look back and see how that trio of matchups played out.
Quarterback Derek Carr vs. Quarterback Philip Rivers
Both signal-callers put together impressive afternoons at the Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum, but the Raiders went home victorious, so you have to give the advantage to Carr.
