The Las Vegas Raiders defeated the Los Angeles Chargers 26-14 on Sunday in Inglewood, improving to 2-0 while dropping their AFC West rivals to 0-2. Quarterback Kirk Cousins answered early doubts about his deep passing by connecting with Tre Tucker for a 40-yard touchdown and a separate 42-yard gain in the first half.

Los Angeles quarterback Justin Herbert struggled in his second game under new offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel, completing 15 of 27 passes for 192 yards with two interceptions. Herbert also fumbled three times, though the Chargers recovered each one, while the team lost one of six total fumbles on the day.

“There's a lot of ways to win a game.”

— Klint Kubiak, Raiders head coach

Raiders coach Klint Kubiak praised his offense's versatility after Las Vegas leaned on the run game to beat Miami in Week 1 before attacking through the air against Los Angeles. Running back Ashton Jeanty carried 21 times for 48 yards against the Chargers after rushing for 102 yards in the opener.

The Raiders became the first team since the 2014 Houston Texans to start 2-0 after winning three or fewer games the previous season. Las Vegas last opened a season with two wins in 2021, the most recent year the franchise reached the playoffs.
