| New York, NY (MySportsbook) - San Diego Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers, Baltimore Ravens safety Ed Reed and Oakland Raiders kick returner Justin Miller have been selected as the AFC's top players for the month of December.

San Diego crushed Denver, 52-21, Sunday in a winner-ta |

| ng the month of December. That startling and epic cave-in is also a telling signal that a significant roster overhaul is on the horizon over the coming months. Tampa Bay's collapse culminated with this past Sunday's 31-24 defeat at home to the lowly Oakland Raiders, who erupted for 17 points over the final 10 minutes to seal the fate of the reigning NFC South champs. The go-ahead points came via a 67-yard touchdown run from Raiders running back Michael Bush, who abused the Bucs' suddenly-troublesome defense fo |

The injury-plagued back ran for 28 yards but appeared to go down awkwardly when we was tackled by Chris Johnson. Williams remained on the ground near the sidelines for several minutes before being helped to the locker room without putting any pressure on the leg. With the setback Tampa Bay was el |

The Buccaneers enter a curtain-dropping date with the Oakland Raiders - whom Gruden coached to 38 wins in four seasons from 1998-2001 - needing both a non-loss and a Christmas miracle's worth of help to reach the promised land for the fourth time in seven years.

| (MySportsbook) - Well...if nothing else, they've got internal strife. While it's been several years since the Oakland Raiders have done anything on the field to warrant specific mention in the latter stages of a season, they continue to be among the NFL's best when it comes to off-the-field finger- pointing and tongue-wagging. Already veterans of a bizarre owner monologue and an accompanying coaching change earlier this season, the Silver and Black added another chapter to the 2008 soap opera this week when |
