Date: Thursday, December 24, 2015
Time: 8:25 p.m. ET
Location: O.co Coliseum, Oakland, California
TV Channel: NFL Network

Game Preview: The matchup offers little in the way of playoff implications. The Raiders and Chargers will be playing for pride and attempt to finish the season on a high note.
The Raiders are much improved and have shown they have a young core of players that is capable of competing with any team in the league. Derek Carr, Amari Cooper and Michael Crabtree have helped provide the Raiders with a potent passing attack.
The Chargers have been plagued by injuries and will look to improve their team in the offseason.
