Easton Stick versus Aidan O’Connell was going to be a dull enough matchup for Thursday Night Football. No one wanted to make it any worse, but somehow the Los Angeles Chargers did in their AFC West showdown with the Las Vegas Raiders.
The Raiders took out their frustrations from being shutout in Week 14 with 42 unanswered first half points en route to a 63-21 dismantling of Los Angeles.
O’Connell finished the night going 20-of-34 for 248 yards and four touchdowns. No one can say if the Raiders have their future signal caller, but he played the part in Week 15.
Twitter stuck around for the 60-minute beatdown. Here are some of the best tweets to emerge from the Raiders’ dismantling of the Chargers.
Al Michaels might show up in a hoodie and sweatpants for this game. #TNFonPrime

I’m sure Amazon was thinking Easton Stick versus the raiders when they paid a billion dollars to run the NFL.

@chargers, at least you now have enough tape to fire Staley.
He is a plague and needs to be handled 👏 #chargers#nfl
