Raiders host Chargers on Thursday Night Football
Week 15 opens with an AFC West showdown, as Easton Stick leads the Chargers against Aidan O'Connell and the Raiders.
Stick takes over for Justin Herbert, who will have surgery to address a fractured index finger on his throwing hand, the team announced on Tuesday.
The Raiders have lost three straight, including a historic loss to the Minnesota Vikings at home in Week 14. Their 3-0 defeat marked the first time a team that scored three or fewer points won since 2007, when the Pittsburgh Steelers topped the Miami Dolphins in a torrential downpour.
Only seven games have ended with a 3-0 score in the Super Bowl era. O'Connell threw for 171 yards and an interception in the defeat.
Meanwhile, the Chargers have won only one of their past four games to drop to 5-8. Stick threw for 179 yards in relief of Herbert in their 24-7 loss in Week 14 against the Denver Broncos.
Saturday tripleheader
TSN has coverage Saturday of a tripleheader featuring playoff implications in all three games.
The day of action kicks off with a clash between the Vikings (7-6) and Cincinnati Bengals (7-6), who are each in the thick of the wild-card battles in their respective conferences. Jake Browning looks to lead the Bengals in place of the injured Joe Burrow, while the Vikings may call on Nick Mullens to replace Joshua Dobbs, who was benched due to poor performance in their Week 14 game against the Raiders.
The tripleheader continues with the Steelers (7-6) facing the Indianapolis Colts (7-6) in another battle of backup QBs seeking to guide their teams to the playoffs. Mitch Trubisky leads Pittsburgh against Gardner Minshew for Indianapolis, with kickoff scheduled for 4:30pm ET / 1:30pm PT on TSN1/3, TSN.ca and the TSN App.
The day is capped off with a game between the Denver Broncos (7-6) and Detroit Lions (9-4) in Detroit. Denver have won six of their last seven to turn around a 1-5 start that included a 70-20 blowout loss against the Miami Dolphins. Detroit has 10 turnovers in their last four games to contribute to a 2-2 record in that span.

Sunday Night Football features a duel of division leaders as the Baltimore Ravens (10-3) travel down south to take on Trevor Lawrence and the Jacksonville Jaguars (8-5).
The Jaguars seemed to survive an injury scare with their prized QB in Lawrence, who suffered an ankle sprain in their Week 13 defeat against the Cincinnati Bengals. He was able to play through the injury just six days later against the Browns, but the Jaguars suffered their second-consecutive defeat after committing four turnovers.
Baltimore has won three straight, but it required a 76-yard walk-off punt return by Tylan Wallace in overtime to top the Los Angeles Rams last week. QB Lamar Jackson has 2,934 passing yards through 13 games and 644 rushing yards.
Monday Night Football on TSN
Week 15 concludes with a matchup between the Philadelphia Eagles and Seattle Seahawks on Monday Night Football.
Philadelphia (10-3) fell to a wild-card spot after losing to the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday Night in Week 14.
They rank sixth in points per game on offence, with 26.3, but 28th in the league in points allowed per game. Their defence struggled in consecutive losses to the 49ers and Cowboys, allowing 42 against San Francisco and 33 against Dallas.
The Seahawks (6-7) look to earn their second straight win with Drew Lock under centre as Geno Smith continues to deal with a groin injury.
