Los Angeles Chargers (Home)

It has been a while since the Oakland Raiders and the Los Angeles Chargers have squared off in a primetime set up. What better way to pick it back up than the Raiders last season in Oakland. This is one of the better rivalries in football, and both teams figure to be good in 2019.

The Chargers will undoubtedly still be a relevant team that everyone will want to watch next season. However, the fact that they play in a soccer stadium eliminates them from a primetime home game just.

That’s why the Raiders would play host to their division rival. The two teams last matchup ever in Oakland only seems fitting on Sunday Night football, though I wouldn’t count out a Thursday night matchup either. It would make sense considering the distance between the two teams isn’t a factor.
