Tomlinson and the Chargers look for 12th straight win vs. Raiders

September 11, 2009

The San Diego Chargers have won 11 straight games against the Oakland Raiders, and they plan to extend their winning streak against the silver and black when they play each other in the  opener on Monday night. In recent years, the formula for the Chargers has been running the ball against Al Davis’ team. Chargers’ fans are use to seeing LaDainian Tomlinson run up and down the field, and the Raiders quarterbacks spend much of the game on their backs. The one-sided rivalry has been a real treat for Chargers’ fans, and Monday’s game might be different, but the results will be the same. “With so many weapons we have I don’t have to do what I did early in my career where we ran the ball so much,” Tomlinson said. “Everything centered around me and we relied a lot on me and that running game. Now we can spread the wealth around.” With Philip Rivers and Vincent Jackson emerging as one of the top quarterback-receiver duo, Antonio Gates still a dominate tight end in the league, and Darren Sproles becoming a legitimate change-of-pace back, Tomlinson no longer has to carry the entire load in San Diego.
