The Los Angeles Chargers are looking to see what the other Los Angeles team accomplished last season by winning the Super Bowl. Their 2022 campaign got off to a strong start as the Chargers defeated rival Las Vegas Raiders, 24-19.
With the revamped AFC West, every divisional match counts – even in the first week. With an MVP nominee and a renewed defense in Los Angeles, everyone was watching this match, and the Charger certainly didn’t disappoint. Justin Herbert completed 26 of 34 passes for 279 yards and three touchdowns. Not only did he manage the match, he picked and picked his shots, and he achieved success in that. Kenan Allen led the team with four catches for 66 yards, but was knocked out early with a hamstring injury. DeAndre Carter was impressed by the agent’s free addition, getting three passes for 64 yards and a touchdown.
As for the Raiders, Derek Carr completed 22 of 37 passes for 295 yards, two touchdowns and three interceptions, while new Davante Adams had 10 passes for 141 yards and one point. The Las Vegas attack scored in the final quarter of the year to get close to the game, but turned the ball over to the next possession after the two-minute warning, which sealed the deal.
