If the Raiders can beat the Chargers, they put themselves in a great spot to win the AFC West division, or make the playoffs as a wild card team.
However, for the Chargers, this game is all about finishing a season with pride. They have won three of their last four games, but it just will not be enough to make the postseason.

Plus the Raiders have the sixth best rushing game in the NFL, which will tear apart a Chargers defense that ranks 20th in the NFL.
What's At Stake
With a win for the Raiders, they put themselves in an excellent spot to make the post season for the first time since 2002. However, a loss will end the Raiders season, that had so much hope after starting 4-3 this year.
