That's a fairly large injury report again, but not unheard of this late in the season. The Chargers are about as healthy as we could ask for this late in the season.
The best news here is that it looks like the Chargers will have their starting Offensive Line in tact to start the game yet again. As we saw in the game in Denver, having your core line playing together is key to keeping Philip Rivers upright.
Also good: Keenan Allen was a full participant, despite his nagging shoulder injury.

There seems to be an illness working its way through the Raiders locker room. I'll leave that one there on its own.
Overall, the Raiders are pretty healthy now too. Jeremy Stewart being out is rather inconsequential. If Miles Burris missed time, that wouldn't really have much impact on the Chargers. On the flip-side, if Vance Walker missed the game, that would probably make things a bit easier for the Chargers offense. Walker had his way with the Chargers back in Week 5.
