Los Angeles Chargers at Las Vegas Raiders: How to watch 2020 Week 15
By Brad Weiss
The Las Vegas Raiders will play host to the Los Angeles Chargers on Thursday night, and here is how you can catch all of the action in this AFC West battle.
The Las Vegas Raiders blew a golden opportunity to improve their standing in the AFC Playoff battle this past weekend, as they were blown out by the Indianapolis Colts. While the game was close early, it really was not competitive, as the Colts run game ran all over a porous Raiders defense.
On a short week, the Silver and Black will now turn their attention to division rival Los Angeles, who is out of the playoff race, but will be looking to play spoiler. They proved to themselves they can win a close game late this past weekend against Atlanta, a team that destroyed the Raiders a few weeks back.
Derek Carr will have to make do without one of his playmakers in Henry Ruggs III in this one, as the rookie was placed on the COVID list on Tuesday. Ruggs has struggled to make a big impact this season, and with him out, expect even more of a steady dose of Nelson Agholor, who has been terrific in his first year in Las Vegas.
Here is how you can watch all of the action Thursday night:

After the terrible showing by the defense on Sunday, and really all year long, the Raiders decided to fire Paul Guenther, ending his two-year run with the team. Hopefully, that will do the trick for this defense, which has really taken a step backward over the past few weeks after showing signs early.

An incredible start to the 2020 campaign has quickly fallen away, as the 6-3 start has turned into a 7-6 record with three losses in their last four games. There is still a chance for them to make the postseason, but they need to win out and get a lot of help along the way.
