The Los Angeles Chargers shut down the Las Vegas Raiders, Justin Herbert passed for 242 yards and two touchdowns and the Chargers went on to a 20-9 victory Monday night to give Los Angeles coach Jim Harbaugh a win over rival Las Vegas coach Pete Carroll.
For the Raiders (1-1), Smith threw three interceptions while completing 24 of 43 passes for 180 yards.
“Geno is a 70% guy, and he wasn’t that tonight,” Carroll said. “And more so because of the attempts that we made. I thought they took away from that (with deep pass coverage), and we just got to take what’s given to us. I’m not sure that that’s the case until I see the film, but I bet that’s what it is.”
Ashton Jeanty, taken sixth in this year’s draft, gained 43 yards on 11 carries and has 81 yards through two games.
