Game Preview
On December 14 at Allegiant Stadium, the Las Vegas Raiders (5-8) will try to end a three-game losing run against the Los Angeles Chargers (5-8).
In Week 14, the Las Vegas Raiders were defeated 3-0 by the Minnesota Vikings. Josh Jacobs sustained a quad injury during the 4th quarter of their last game’s loss, so Las Vegas may have to rely on Zamir White or Ameer Abdullah to spearhead their ground assault. This season, White and Abdullah ran together for 96 yards on 26 carries, indicating that they haven’t had much action. When Abdullah was a rookie in 2015, he ran for a career-high 597 yards with Detroit. In the event that Jacobs isn’t available, Raiders interim head coach Antonio Pierce might decide to start rookie quarterback Aidan O’Connell. For the past three games, O’Connell, 25, has tried at least 32 passes; nevertheless, he has only gained less than 270 yards each game.
Last game out the Chargers lost 24-7 versus the Denver Broncos. If Justin Herbert is not well enough to play, Easton Stick will probably get his first NFL start. Last game, Stick took Herbert’s place in the starting lineup. In his second start since being chosen in the 5th round of the 2019 NFL Draft and his first since 2020, he converted 13 of 24 pass attempts for 179 yards. Stick is hoping to target Keenan Allen, since the veteran wide receiver’s availability is questionable due to a heel injury sustained after his six 68-yard receptions during the game versus the Broncos. With 108 receptions, Allen dominates the league and is 4th with 1,243 receiving yards. In his 139th game, he surpassed 900 career catches, surpassing all other NFL players in doing so. After setting a franchise record with 6 sacks against his old team earlier in the season, linebacker Khalil Mack was unstoppable. He now has 10 sacks in 5 career encounters with the Raiders.
