Las Vegas Raiders at Los Angeles Chargers: How to watch Week 9
By Brad Weiss
The Las Vegas Raiders hit the road in AFC West action on Sunday, as they travel to SoFi Stadium to take on the Los Angeles Chargers.
The Las Vegas Raiders will play their second AFC West game of the 2020 NFL season on Sunday, as they travel to Inglewood, California to take on the Los Angeles Chargers. In normal years, this would be a “home” game for the Raiders, as Raider Nation has taken over in Los Angeles since the Chargers moved there from San Diego.
On Sunday, there will be no fans in the stands, and incredibly, the Raiders are actually an underdog in this game. The Chargers go into the matchup sitting at 2-5, but they are a 1.5 favorite at home, a spread that seems laughable considering that the Raiders are 4-3, and have played a much tougher schedule than the Bolts.
Still, games are won not on paper, or by who holds the odds, so this should be another excellent matchup on Sunday. Last season, the Raiders swept the Chargers, but this is a brand new team in Los Angeles, led by a rookie quarterback in Justin Herbert.
Here is how you can watch all of the action online Sunday:

Herbert has done a phenomenal job since taking over for Tyrod Taylor, who saw his time as the starter in Los Angeles end when a doctor punctured his lung with a needle. While the wins have not stacked up, Herbert is showing he is a legitimate franchise guy, and the team should be set for the next decade.

His counterpart, Derek Carr, is having one of his best seasons as a pro, and has already shed a lot of the criticism he has seen coming into the season. Josh Jacobs carried the load this past Sunday against the Cleveland Browns, but it has been Carr who has been the constant all season long, and he has had a lot of success against the Chargers franchise in the past.
