In their previous game, the Chargers were smoked by the Jaguars, 35-6, back in Week 11. The Raiders defense has forced and recovered six fumbles in 2025, tied for the ninth most in the NFL. Raiders DE Maxx Crosby now has 19 tackles for loss in 11 games this season, the most in Raiders history by a player through the first 11 games of a season.
