Record-Breaking Raiders: 63-21 Victory & NFL History Made!
The Las Vegas Raiders bounced back remarkably, clinching a record-setting 63-21 victory against the Chargers following a recent low-scoring loss to the Vikings.
After facing a 3-0 defeat, the Raiders dominated the Chargers 63-21, setting a franchise record in a remarkable turnaround.
Scoring 63 points, the Raiders secured the NFL's second-highest score after a shutout, only trailing the 1934 Eagles' 64 points against the Cincinnati Reds.
