Las Vegas Raiders vs. Los Angeles Chargers

You found this. Be the first one here.

December is when a division stops being a table and starts being a grudge. Whatever these two teams still have left to play for by the middle of the month, the fixture carries sixty years of accumulated grievance that neither city has ever fully let go of, and it is one of the rare Sundays where the visiting crowd has driven rather than flown. Chargers fans make this trip in real numbers. It is closer than most of their own road games and it lands on a weekend plenty of people were half-planning anyway, so Allegiant Stadium fills with an argument that has already been running for hours outside in the lots before anyone reaches a seat. The 1:05 slot means an early start and a very long afternoon behind it, which in this particular city is either the entire appeal or the warning, depending on who you travelled with. December 13. Bring somebody who will forgive you for how loud you get.
