In a Monday night battle of the AFC West, the Las Vegas Raiders, who are 3-0 (their best start since 2002) take on the Los Angeles Chargers, who are 2-1 coming off a big win against the Kansas City Chiefs last Sunday.
The defending Offensive Rookie of the Year, quarterback Justin Herbert continues to lead his offense under new head coach Brandon Staley. The Raiders are being led by veteran Derek Carr, who seems to have found a rhythm in the offense, which includes his favorite target Darren Waller. Running back Josh Jacobs returned to practice this week. He has been dealing with an ankle injury but Peyton Barber has done a good job filling in his absence.
