OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) — The Oakland Raiders had just pulled ahead when LaDainian Tomlinson pulled his Chargers teammates together by the bench and told them they were going to win this game.

Philip Rivers got in the huddle and said the same thing. Coach Norv Turner instructed his players not to panic. San Diego had practiced the two-minute drill so many times in recent months, they all knew it wasn’t over.

Rivers answered a pair of go-ahead scores from Oakland by leading two touchdown drives and Darren Sproles scored the game-winner on a 5-yard run with 18 seconds left to give the Chargers their 12th straight victory over the Raiders, 24-20, late Monday night.

“L. T. came over and said, ‘We’re going to win this football game,’ ” right tackle Jeromey Clary said.

JaMarcus Russell had given Oakland a 20-17 lead with a 57-yard TD pass to rookie Louis Murphy with 2:34 left.
