Oakland Raiders survive winless San Diego By Bernie Wilson The Associated Press SAN DIEGO — Oakland rookie Se bastian Janikowski didn’t miss when it counted. Oh, how the San Diego Chargers wished he would have. Janikowski kicked a 24-yard field goal with 13 seconds left to give the Raiders a wild 15-13 win over their winless AFC West rivals on Sunday night. It was his fifth field goal of the night, tying the franchise record set by Jeff Jaeger in 1994. Janikowski was wide left on a 42 yarder in the third quarter that would have given the Raiders a little breath ing room. And he kicked it right through. Janikowski finished 5-for-6 and the Raiders won their fifth straight game to improve to 7-1. The Chargers, the NFL’s only winless team, fell to 0-8 and are three losses shy of matching their worst start ever, 0-11 in 1975. Janikowski had given the Raiders a '*v 12-0 halftime lead on field goals of 40, 40, 54 and 29 yards. Two weeks ago, he kicked a 43-yard field goal with 25 seconds left to beat the Kansas City Chiefs 20-17. The Chargers could only wish they had a first-round draft pick who was making an impact. Their most recent first-rounder, quarterback Ryan Leaf, has returned to his ineffective, pout ing ways that marred his rookie sea son of 1998. Bobby Beathard, who re tired as general manager last spring, often traded away future first-round picks to gamble on second-round picks, and many of those players were busts. “1 guess they feel real good about their first draft pick,” said Chargers tight end Freddie Jones, whose touchdown catch with 5:58 to go had given the Chargers a 13-12 lead. “Hats off to Janikowski.” The Chargers appeared to have the game in hand when Jim Harbaugh threw his second touchdown pass of the night to Jones. That drive was set up when Charg ers star linebacker Junior Seau inter cepted Rich Gannon’s shovel pass midway through the fourth quarter. As the pocket was collapsing on Gan non, he tossed the ball to Tyrone Wheatley, but it glanced off the run ning back’s hands right to Seau. After Jones scored, Seau pumped both fists in the air on the sideline. But it wasn’t long before he and the rest of the Chargers were disappoint ed again. “I thought the game would be tough because of their defense. So I came out ready to kick some more.” Gannon moved the Raiders down field with precision, gaining 68 yards on 13 plays. The big play was a 9 yard pass to Andre Rison on third down to get the Raiders into field goal range. The Raiders ran down the clock and sent in Janikowski for the winning kick. Seau said the Chargers should have stopped the Raiders on the third-down pass to Rison. After Chargers rookie Ronney Jenkins had a 47-yard kickoff return to the 50 with five seconds left, Harbaugh’s despera tion pass was picked off. “We weren’t perfect tonight but it’s hard to beat a divisional opponent twice,” said Gruden, whose team beat the Chargers 9-6 on opening day. “We like the resiliency of this football team.” On a night when the Chargers wore their 1960s-style throwback uniforms, they spent the first half throwing chances to the Raiders. Janikowski kicked field goals to cap the Raiders’ first four drives, and each one was extended by Chargers penalties. At halftime, the Chargers had committed nine penalties for 69 yards, and had gained just 70 yards total. San Diego finally came to life when it took the second-half kick off and moved 76 yards for its first score, an 8-yard pass from Har baugh to Jones. The Chargers had two more first downs on that drive — seven — than they did for the entire first half. San Diego didn’t get into Oak land territory for the first time until just nine seconds remained in the first half, and then it was out of timeouts and the clock ran out.
