Where to Watch the Chargers Game Today
The Chargers play in the AFC, so CBS carries most of their Sunday afternoon games, usually at 4:05 or 4:25 PM ET (1:05 or 1:25 PM in Los Angeles). A few are on FOX, like the November 22 home game against the Jets. Los Angeles has two NFL teams, so on some Sundays your local station picks the Rams game instead.
In Los Angeles and Orange County, the local stations are:
| Network | Los Angeles station | Channel |
|---|---|---|
| CBS | KCBS (CBS Los Angeles) | 2 |
| FOX | KTTV (FOX 11) | 11 |
| NBC | KNBC (NBC4) | 4 |
| ABC | KABC (ABC7) | 7 |
Three national night games are still ahead: Monday Night Football at Baltimore on November 16 (ESPN), Sunday Night Football against New England on November 29 (NBC and Peacock), and Thursday Night Football against San Francisco on December 17 (Prime Video). The Week 17 home game against Kansas City is on Saturday, January 2, and its network appears in the schedule below once the NFL announces it.

Where to Watch the Chargers Game Outside Los Angeles
Outside the Los Angeles market, your local CBS or FOX station shows the Chargers only when the network sends that game to your area. National games on NBC, ESPN and Prime Video work anywhere in the US.
For Sunday afternoon games your station does not carry, NFL Sunday Ticket on YouTube covers every out of market game. If you live in Los Angeles and your station shows the Rams instead, Sunday Ticket does not help, since both teams are in-market there. Outside the US, NFL Game Pass on DAZN streams every game live in most countries.
