Chargers healthy heading into matchup against Raiders

SAN DIEGO -- The Chargers should be as healthy as they've been all season when they host the AFC West rival Oakland Raiders on Sunday.

Just three players missed practice on Friday, and coach Norv Turner was hopeful one of them will play against the Raiders.

Inside linebacker Kevin Burnett, though, will miss his second straight game with an ankle injury. He's listed as doubtful on the injury report after not practicing all week.

Defensive tackle Ogemdi Nwagbuo was also out with an ankle injury, but Turner was somewhat optimistic he could play. It will be a game-time decision.

Replacing Burnett will be Tim Dobbins, a fourth-year pro who had one of the better days of his career last week. Filling in for Burnett, Dobbins had a team-high 11 tackles and added an interception in a 37-7 win at Kansas City.
