Chargers Gab • Merriman Will Play Huge Role vs. Raiders
Shawne Merriman had three sacks in last year’s opening matchup against the Raiders. The Oakland offensive line has improved significantly from last season though but Merriman should still be able to create pressure. Merriman hasn’t had ...

Can't Stop The Bleeding • Raiders/Bolts - Let The Beatings Commence
