Summary
Derwin James Jr. blasted the Chargers' defense after Sunday's 26-14 home loss to the Raiders, saying the unit "looks trash" as Los Angeles opened 0-2.
349 yards allowed per game and just one takeaway have fueled the slide, with the Chargers scoring only 14 points in each loss despite James saying they are only a few plays away.
James, who broke his left pinky finger, has 17 tackles and a pass breakup through two games while the team has dropped both home contests by double digits.
OPTA said the Chargers are only the second NFL team to lose their first two games by double digits at home to opponents coming off sub-.200 seasons; next come road trips to Buffalo and Seattle.
