The Los Angeles Chargers led by Justin Herbert will face the Las Vegas Raiders in week 1 to kick off their new campaign.
The Los Angeles Chargers will face the Las Vegas Raiders on 11th September 2022 to kickstart their new NFL season. This will be a battle of two great teams of the AFC West who have Super Bowl aspirations.
The Chargers improved massively in the offseason and are among the teams that have a great chance of winning the Super Bowl this year. Justin Herbert will also be extra motivated to finally take his team to the postseason this time around.
On the other hand, the Las Vegas Raiders also brought in Davante Adams who will play a huge part in the Raiders’ season this time around. Derek Carr will have his best friend alongside him, and this match promises to be a great one to start the AFC West frenzy.
