The Raiders take a 63–21 win over the Chargers after a historic initially half that makes them look bad.

The Raiders take a 63–21 win over the Chargers after a historic initially half that makes them look bad.

It probably doesn’t seem your night when a NFL analyst calls your firing during halftime of a game that is being shown all over the country.

That’s what Brandon Staley as well as the Los Angeles Chargers saw Thursday when they lost to the Las Vegas Raiders 63–21.

As soon as the Chargers hit the field, the game was pretty much over. After making the other team go three and out, the Raiders got the ball at the team’s 32-yard line.

The team then drove 12 plays down the field and scored on a 1-yard rush by Zamir White to end the drive.

After that, they did it over and over again and again. The Raiders were ahead 21-0 at the end of the first quarter. The team’s lead had grown to 42-0 by halfway.

That was the most points ever scored by the Raiders in the first half. It’s the same Raiders squad that the Vikings beat badly in Week 14.

The Las Vegas Raiders beat the Los Angeles Chargers 63-21, with leads of up to 56 points. This happened a little over 96 hours after they lost 3-0 in the NFL’s lowest-scoring indoor game ever.

Aiden O’Connell threw four touchdowns for the Raiders (6-8), who were ahead 42-0 at halftime. Jakobi Meyers caught or threw for a touchdown.

This loss will not help Chargers boss Brandon Staley, who is under a lot of pressure because his team lost five turnovers.

The Raiders’ offense scored three touchdowns from those mistakes, and the Raiders’ defense scored two more.

There was no way the Chargers could have been worse in Sin City on Thursday. It was the worst game they’ve had since moving from San Diego.

Because the Chargers have been around for 64 years, this show had the potential to be of the most humiliating ones ever.

After one quarter, they were down three touchdowns to a Las Vegas team who had only scored 21 points twice all season.

The Chargers’ record dropped to 5-9 after the loss. It was their first losing time since 2020, the last year Anthony Lynn was head coach.

The Chargers lost 63–21, which is the most points any Charger team has ever given up in a single game. The Raiders scored 21 additional points within the second quarter, making the night a joke.

With a 13-yard pass to long receiver Alex Erickson, Easton Stick led the Chargers to their only good-looking drive for the night so far.

They went 75 yards in 11 plays while mostly playing against backups. Even though the Chargers can’t save the game, they can still sort of feel good about it until the end.

Jones ran into the passing lane between Stick or his intended receiver, Austin Ekeler, just in time for the play.

He caught the pass with one hand. From his high-class box, Raiders owner Mark Davis couldn’t believe what he saw.

There have been many scores that are more unfair than the one from Thursday night’s game. History books prove it.

The Los Angeles Chargers were beaten 63–21 by the Las Vegas Raiders, breaking the record that the New Orleans Saints had held.

For that reason, the Raiders are led by Antonio Pierce, who took over as head coach earlier this season.

Pierce’s 42-point win is the biggest win by a temporary head coach since the leagues joined together in 1970. It beats the Saints’ 41-0 shutout in 2012, as Joe Vitt was their interim coach.

It’s not the biggest win for a temporary head coach in NFL history, though. Jonathan Jones of CBS Sports said that when the Chicago Bears were in between coaches, Hunk Anderson as well as Luke Johnsos beat the Cleveland Rams 47–0 back in 1942. That’s pretty good of a stat.

But this Raiders win is better than the Saints’ rout in 2012. Charles McDonald of Yahoo Sports said it’s only tenth occasion since 1970 that an ensemble has scored over 60 points in a game.

Denver’s Sean Payton’s team gave up 70 points to the Miami Dolphins earlier this season. That was more than ten years ago. It’s interesting how all of these things are linked.

Before that, Payton and Vitt, who is now a senior defensive coach for the Broncos, were on the other side when the Saints beat the Colts 62–7 in 2011.
