	Since defeating the San Diego Chargers on September 28, 2003, the Oakland Raiders would begin a long losing streak. Finally, the Silver and Black can say that they have a defeat against the only other AFC team in the State of California. Tyvon Branch returned a fumble 64 yards for a touchdown, as the Raiders defeated the Chargers 35-27 at the Oakland- Alameda County Coliseum. It was a great day all around for the Raiders, as they blocked two punts, one resulting in a safety and the other in a touchdown, as the Raiders put an end to their 13-game losing streak against the Chargers. Jason Campbell came onto replace a enigmatic Bruce Gradowski, and went 13-for-18 for 159 and a one-yard touchdown pass to Zach Miller. It was a career day for Philip Rivers, as he threw for 431 yards and Malcolm Floyd came up with a career-high 213 yards receiving. Michael Bush gave the Raiders the lead for good, as he scored on a three-yard run with 3:39 remaining ,as the Raiders came up with their second win of the season.
