Five keys for the Raiders against Chargers, Philip Rivers

OAKLAND — Derek Carr and Philip Rivers speak the same language.

They just happen to leave out some of the same words.

Wide receiver Tyrell Williams played his first four season catching passes from Rivers and now plays for the Raiders.

“It’s amazing,” Williams said. “As competitive as they are, they don’t curse.”

The language directed toward Rivers by Raiders fans over the years has had its share of four-letter words, and worse. When the Raiders host the Los Angeles Chargers Thursday night (5:20 p.m., PST), it will be the 14th and presumably the final time Rivers starts at the Coliseum.
