The Raiders went on the road, beat a Chargers team that cannot get out of its own way, and the fanbase immediately started writing October speeches. A division win over Los Angeles is not a personality.
Tom Brady collected the applause for a win over an 0–2 corpse. Tommy Boys football: borrow the aura, invoice the hope.
