Raiders at Chargers live stream: How to watch online
Here’s everything you need to know about watching the Oakland Raiders and San Diego Chargers online via a live stream on Sunday.
The Oakland Raiders (10-3) will make the in-state trip to San Diego on Sunday to play the Chargers (5-8). Although the Chargers don’t have much of a chance at making the playoffs, it does have a lot of meaning.
The Raiders are in a dog-fight for the AFC West division crown. The Kansas City Chiefs are also 10-3, while the Broncos are in third place at 8-5. Kansas City holds the first-place tie-breaker over the Raiders. If the playoffs were to start today, Oakland would be a wild-card team in the No.5 seed.
Over the last three match-ups, Oakland has gone undefeated. That includes a 34-31 win this year, a game which San Diego was three-point favorites.
San Diego has been in the news for things besides game-action as of late. Ownership has been in talks of leaving the city to join the Rams in Los Angeles. According to NBC Sports, commissioner Roger Goodell wants to keep the team in San Diego and has become “fixated” on doing so. Nothing is final yet, but it does look like a move is inevitable.
Meanwhile, the Chargers will finish this year with another underwhelming performance. They have only made the playoffs one time in the last seven years.
Quarterback Derek Carr of the Raiders will look to bounce-back from his poor performance last Sunday. In a 21-13 loss to the Chiefs, Carr completed only 41.9 percent of his throws for 117 yards. Carr has been a sleeper pick for MVP so far this season.
