{{Main|Chargers–Raiders rivalry}}

The Chargers–Raiders rivalry dates to the 1963 season, when the Raiders defeated the heavily favored Chargers twice, both come-from-behind fourth quarter victories. One of the most memorable games between these teams was the [[Holy Roller (American football)|"Holy Roller" game]] in 1978, in which the Raiders intentionally fumbled in order to score a touchdown. This somewhat controversial play resulted in a rule change the following season. On November 22, 1982, the Raiders hosted their first Monday Night football game in Los Angeles against the Chargers. The Chargers led the game in the 1st half 24–0 until the Raiders scored 28 unanswered points in the second half to win 28–24. On January 10, 2022, the Raiders defeated the Chargers in overtime, 35–32. The winning field goal was unnecessary for the Raiders' playoff chances, and if the game had ended in a tie, both teams would have made the playoffs. With the field goal, the Chargers were eliminated. The Raiders lead the series 69–60–2 as of the end of the 2024 season, including having won the only playoff game between the two teams, the [[1980–81 NFL playoffs|1980 AFC Championship game]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=AFC Championship - Oakland Raiders at San Diego Chargers - January 11th, 1981 |url=https://www.pro-football-reference.com/boxscores/198101110sdg.htm |access-date=2024-08-18 |website=[[Pro Football Reference]] |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=All Matchups, Los Angeles/San Diego Chargers vs. Las Vegas/LA/Oakland Raiders |url=https://www.pro-football-reference.com/boxscores/game_query.cgi?tm1=sdg&tm2=rai&yr=all |access-date=2024-08-18 |website=[[Pro Football Reference]] |language=en}}</ref>
