In this AFC West matchup, both teams are on the uptick with the Chargers upsetting the Packers and the Raiders beat the Lions. The Chargers are slightly healthier than previous weeks but still remain one of the most injured teams on both sides of the ball as reflected by all of their unit health grades in the "C" range. However the big delta for them is having defensive end Melvin Ingram back and healthy. Teams can no longer focus just on Joey Bosa as the tandem created havoc for all-pro quarterback Aaron Rodgers on Sunday. Although the Raiders are healthier than the Chargers with mostly "B" health grades for their Injury Index, the difference will be whether center Rodney Hudson (high ankle) and/or RT Trent Brown (knee) can play. Both did not practice on Monday but were limited in practice on Tuesday. The key is whether the Raiders OL will be healthy enough to stop the Chargers edge rush tandem and will the Chargers new offensive coordinator have more magic on a short week?
