Justin Herbert controls the game in the victory of the loaders over the raiders

Las Vegas – Much of the objective in the victory of Los Angeles Chargers 20-9 against Las Vegas raiders on Monday evening was in match between the two coaches – Jim Harbaugh and Pete Carroll. Two coach giants with a two decades rivalry renewed “Monday Night Football”.

The game reflected two teams that embody the mentalities of their coach – physical and physical defensive lines, great successes and two physical half -round half -cores. In the end, Harbaugh’s charges dominated this game mainly from start to finish – with an effective attack attack and an stingy defense that did not allow a touch and a quarter of forced raids Geno Smith to launch three interceptions.

The chargeers start the 2-0 season for the second consecutive season and the third time since 2012, and they have the only possession of first place in AFC West. However, it was not good news because Khalil Mack left the match early after undergoing an elbow injury.

Here are the most important things to know on Monday evening for both teams:

QB performance: The loads took a slow start on Monday evening, but the quarter-Arrière Justin Herbert quickly settled, separating the defense of the raiders for 242 yards by the pass, 2 affected and 31 yards on the ground. In the 2nd year with the offensive coordinator Greg Roman, Herbert looks as comfortable as in his career, both launched and precipitated the ball, a good sign for the charging ceiling.

Tendency to look: Roman seems to move away from the ball. The loads did not try to have a precipitation before 4:52 am at the first quarter on Monday evening. They finished the match with 54 yards on the ground designed. But Roman does not move away from the race for no reason. The offensive line of charges had trouble creating tracks for runners, while it had great protection and success in the air. This offense could be very different from the way in which the Harbaugh-Roman teams have historically watched.

Statistics namely: Quentin Johnston is the first charge player with three receivers in the first two games of one season since the end of the season since Antonio Gates in 2014. Johnston, who had difficulties since the charges selected him in the first round there are two seasons, there is an electric start to this season with 150 yards and three affected in the first two games. – Crisis Rhim

It is clear that Smith can throw a throw on the ground. However, his confidence in his arm can be a gift and a curse.

Smith had three interceptions on Monday, and they all happened when he tried to launch the ball in double coverage – including on the first game of the match. He injured the chances of returning from his team when he tried a pass of touch to Jakobi Meyers with 5:58 to go to the fourth quarter, but the ball was tilted and chosen by the Donte Jackson corner half.

Turning: The raiders were solid enough for the first half to the last two minutes. Herbert found that Johnston opened up on the ground for a touch of 60 yards to give Los Angeles an advance of 20-6 before half time.

Statistics namely: Smith was 0 for 12 on passing attempts for more than 10 air yards. This is a big difference compared to his performance against the Patriots of New England at the opening of the season, when he went 9 for 14 on the attempts of more than 10 meters.

Trendy: Brock Bowers knee injury. There was a sigh of emergency pre-match when Bowers was officially active after being listed as questionable due to a knee injury. However, its production was limited. Bowers had only five catches for 38 yards. He had only one taking in the first half. Bowers missed two days of training before being a limited participant on Saturday. Against the loads, Bowers did not seem 100% healthy and that is something to watch in the future. – Ryan McFadden
