Philip Rivers is one of the elite trash talkers in the NFL and on Thursday he brought his mouth for one final showdown with the Raiders at the Oakland Coliseum (or RingCentral Coliseum as we call it now).
Rivers didn’t have a lot to chirp about early in the game, but after orchestrating a 12-play, 80-yard drive to put the Chargers in the lead with 3:57 left in the game, Rivers’ mouth woke up. The video (below) is Rivers taunting the Raiders sideline after the touchdown throw to Austin Ekeler.
From that moment, Rivers did not complete another pass and methodically sunk his team to a 4-6 record where the Chargers are a virtual lock to miss the playoffs.

Phillip Rivers taunted the #Raiders sideline after a TD drive that gave them the lead. After that, he finished the game: 0-8, with 1 INT. #RaiderNation https://t.co/olZfRk4wVP
Rivers threw three interceptions on the night – one being for a Raiders touchdown (thanks, Phil). He also threw two others that didn’t hit the box score because they were negated by penalties.
Rivers finished the night with a 29.6 quarterback rating and an embarrassing final drive for the Coliseum and fans to remember him by.

They’re done!.. stick a fork in them. Too many injuries, mistakes, bad play calling and lack of play makers. Another disappointing season, no wonder they can’t even sell-out a soccer stadium. They should never have moved to L.A
He might be throwing more INTs this yr, but look who has his back. I’ve seen better H.S. O lines. Not to mention having receivers giving up on their routes ( Kenan).
Yeah he’s a shi* talker, but he’s always had the game to match his mouth.
Marinate on this…Every game the Bolts have lost this yr have been by 7 or less!!!
Figure it out and give your balls a tug you tit fu*ckers.
Yeah you act like tittie f ucking is bad are you a queer
What difference does it make if they lost by 7 or 700? Sounds like you’re in denial about your team sucking.
Hahaha, that’s sad me funny but true **** you’re spitting! Go Raiders…
an L is an L no matter by how much…losing by 7 points or less doesnt get you in the playoffs sucka
F*CK THE RAIDERS
F*K THE SORRY TRASH A$$ Chargers! GO BACK to Diego, NO ONE wants u in LA!!! RRRRRRRAAAAAAAIIIIDDDEEEERRRSSSS!!!

Sincerely

I’m glad they got there *** handed to the idiots, can’t stand them💩
And the Raiders get the last laugh!
Buffoon ! Time for you & ur cheap *** team to move !
Rivers he looked like a washed up creek he isn’t **** anymore Carr is the real deal
As a San Diego #RaiderNation member, I’ve seen it over and over. Would love to know how many defenses he has inspired and in turn, kept himself out of the Super Bowl & the HOF.
Typical “Cry me a River!” So proud of my Raiders team! Class act! Love my team.
That night my 8 year old daughter posted to her, normally kid friendly, Instagram a picture of her and I and the caption “Chargers Just Got Clowned”. That game was one for the Raider Nation Memory Book!-GSH
Butthurt?
