Even with Josh McDaniels out as head coach, the Las Vegas Raiders still mark a landmark of "Patriots West."
With interim head coach Antonio Pierce leading the team, the Raiders demolished the Los Angeles Chargers, 63-21, on Thursday night in primetime.
Of the nine touchdowns Las Vegas scored, four of them had New England connections with former Patriots finding the end zone.
Wide receiver Jakobi Meyers hauled in an impressive 22-yard touchdown catch before tossing the third touchdown pass of his career to Davante Adams with the game out of reach.
