Going into week 5, the Chargers currently occupy the second spot in the AFC West, as the Kansas City Chiefs are off to a blistering start.
The Oakland Raiders, meanwhile, sit at the cellar of the division with a 1-3 record, but they’re have been playing 
much better football as of late. One of the main reasons for the Raiders improved play is the play of running back Darren McFadden. The OVER/UNDER for this, San Diego Chargers vs Oakland Raiders 2010 NFL Predictions, Odds & Picks game is set at a total of 45 points.
However, Oakland will have to find other guys to step up the rushing attack, as McFadden, who is currently tied for third in the NFL with 392 rushing yards, has been ruled out of this game because of a right hamstring injury. Michael Bush is expected to get most of the touches coming out of the backfield today.
"It's a totally different feel from last year and this year," wide receiver Louis Murphy said. "A lot of veterans on this team are fed up with losing and really want to win. It's a different feeling. It's a good vibe going around here. We just haven't pulled out the close ones, but the good thing is it's early in the season."
For the Chargers, this team has become infamous for coming out slow out of the gate. With disappointing loses to Kansas City and Seattle, the Bolts finally played to their potential last week against Arizona. Holding the Cardinals to just 124 yards of offense, San Diego, as a team, recorded a season-high, 9 sacks and forced three turnovers.
