The Raiders ended a 13-game losing streak to the San Diego Chargers with two touchdowns in the final four minutes, coming from behind for a 35-27 upset. It was the Raiders' first win against the Chargers since 2003.
Jason Campbell, in relief of the injured Bruce Gradkowski, led the go-ahead drive, converting a key fourth-down play with a 7-yard pass to tight end Zach Miller that Oakland them in position for the late touchdown.
Some thoughts after the Raiders' thrilling win:
• The Raiders moved back in front, 28-27, on Michael Bush's 3-yard touchdown run with 3:39 remaining. That seemed to give the Chargers, with the league's No. 1 offense, too much time to answer. But after getting close to field-goal range, San Diego committed a costly holding penalty, then QB Philip Rivers fumbled -- Oakland ran that loose ball back for a touchdown
