Monday was not a great night for the Las Vegas Raiders. In the team’s home opener, Las Vegas fell to 1-1 after losing to the Los Angeles Chargers by a score of 20-9. Geno Smith threw three interceptions, and the run game was limited to just 68 yards.
While the defense tried to keep the team in the game, the Raiders' offense never really got going. As tough as the loss was, however, there were a few bright spots in the game, primarily on the defensive side of the ball.
Holding the Chargers to just 20 points was a great accomplishment, and Las Vegas saw some promising play from its defenders.
