Chargers end Raiders playoff hopes with 38-26 win (AP)

OAKLAND, Calif. ? Philip Rivers threw three touchdown passes and Richard Goodman returned a kickoff 105 yards for another score as the San Diego Chargers ended Oakland's playoff hopes by beating the Raiders 38-26 on Sunday.

The Raiders (8-8) went into the final day of the season needing to win and get help to end an eight-year playoff drought. They got the assistance they needed when Denver (8-8) lost 7-3 at home to Kansas City but were unable to do their part by beating the Chargers (8-8). The Broncos won the division based on record versus common opponents.

The Chargers could only celebrate playing the role of spoiler in what may have been coach Norv Turner's final game in San Diego.
