Linebacker Bruce Irvin
It might not have been the Oakland Raiders most impressive performance of the season Sunday, but the team showed its resiliency yet again, and more importantly secured a spot in the playoffs. The Silver and Black were able to accomplish another come-from-behind win against the San Diego Chargers, defeating them 19-16.
Raiders linebacker Bruce Irvin was active all day, finishing the afternoon with six tackles and a pair of sacks. The defense was able to keep the Bolts veteran quarterback Philip Rivers from any big plays in the second half and were able to force a couple turnovers in crucial moments of the game.
