The Oakland Raiders were able to pull out a close victory over the San Diego Chargers on Sunday, but a closer look at one of the last drives raises an interesting question about how the officials may have impacted the outcome of the game.

The Chargers faced a 2nd-and-1 from the 18-yard line on their final drive of the fourth quarter. Here's a screen grab of the line of scrimmage from right before that play (h/t @Zemmenator on Twitter).

Quarterback Philip Rivers threw an incomplete pass to wide receiver Travis Benjamin on this down, then the Chargers called their second timeout with 3:05 left on the clock.

Sometime during the timeout, it appears as though the officials lost track of the line of scrimmage and marked the ball about a yard behind where it should have been. Compare the screen grab of third down to the one above from second down.

The Raiders held Chargers running back Melvin Gordon to a gain of one on this play, resulting in a fourth-down instead of a possible first down. The Chargers had to attempt a field goal, which was botched, allowing Oakland to run out the remaining time with a three-point lead.

The Chargers keep finding ways to lose, but Sunday's mixup was definitely a new one.
