Raiders 23, Chargers 20 (OT)
He returned to the Raiders before the 2013 season.
The Rams are looking to build their stadium in Inglewood and are willing to take on a partner if needed.
Josh Lambo kicked a 45-yard field goal with 55 seconds left in regulation to create a 20-20 tie with Oakland Raiders during Thursday night’s contest at the O.co Coliseum, and the teams are headed into overtime in Oakland. The play was called “Heisman Pass” in which Woodson took the ball on the reverse with the option to throw or pass. He was tackled for a three-yard loss.

Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers was 31 of 49 for 277 yards and a touchdown, while the Raiders’ Derek Carr had 204 yards and a TD.
With Derek Carr at 3,793 yards, the Raiders have a shot to have a 4,000-yard passer along with the 1,000-yard rusher and receiver for the first time in team history.
One of the NFL’s best defenders, Woodson got the rare opportunity to play offense on Thursday, something he only previously experienced as a college player at MI.
The Chargers dropped to 4-11 on the year, while the Raiders improved to 7-8. “It was a little bit much for me”, Woodson said at his news conference long after the game. “The crowd was just awesome”.
The Oakland Raiders are hoping to share a new stadium with San Diego next year, but first they will attempt to complete their first sweep of the season series since 2010 when they host the Chargers on Thursday night. Donald Brown came on and rushed for 90 yards while Danny Woodhead scored four touchdowns, three on passes from Rivers. Chargers wide receiver Dontrelle Inman caught eight passes for 82 yards and a touchdown. “Doesn’t make it any easier losing another one like that”. “This was just one where we were going on the fly”.
Eyes got big: Benson Mayowa said he saw Malcolm Smith force a fumble by tight end David Johnson and saw the football fly into the air.
And Woodson, more than anybody, understood that, too. Even with that in mind, I think the Raiders cover this spread. “I just so happened to run into him”.
“I guess they thought I was such a threat to catch the ball that they covered it up”, Carr said with a smile.
Carr’s fade pass for Crabtree beat Craig Mager for a 3-yard touchdown to give the Raiders the lead. The Chargers were unable to respond with a score of their own, effectively ending the game. We’ve got to use everyone we’ve got. “But it’s good for it to be this night, a night that’s my last game in the Coliseum, to have the dramatics and come out with a win”.
