With two games left as the Oakland Raiders, the Silver and Black head to Carson to take on the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 16.

The Oakland Raiders head into Week 16 against the Chargers in a rivalry game in Los Angeles, giving the Raiders one more game in front of their California fans. In Week 17, they will travel to Denver to take on the Broncos in their final game as the Oakland Raiders.

Although the Raiders played their last game in Oakland last week, they will still have another chance to make things right in Week 16, as they head to Los Angeles, a town that is primarily Raiders fans. In fact, you can expect most of the fans in the seats to be rocking the Silver and Black, and not so much the blue and yellow of the Chargers.

Both the Raiders and Chargers are coming off disappointing losses, as the Raiders blew their last game in Oakland against the Jaguars, and the Chargers lost 39-10 against the Vikings. Although the Raiders do have a slim chance to make the playoffs, the odds are close to none, and the Chargers have already been eliminated from the hunt.

This game is about pride.

This may be the last time Philip Rivers faces off against the Raiders, at least as a Charger and Derek Carr may very well be playing for his job at this point in the season. Two motivated quarterbacks will go head to head in an AFC West battle, but who will come out on top?
