The Buffalo Bills are on the road to play against the Los Angeles Chargers at SoFi Stadium. We are talking about a team that recently fired their Head Coach Brandon Staley and a team that is coming from beating the Chiefs and the Cowboys. For now, the 5-9 Chargers’ dream to make it to the playoffs seems bleak.
The teams decided to release the list of inactive players ahead of this game. However, it looks like the Chargers are at a bigger disadvantage than the Bills right now. So far, the game will not have these 10 players from both sides.

In a sense yes, but we don’t know what good it will actually do for this Los Angeles team. They rank dead last in the AFC West with a .357 PCT. Even if they win this game, they would still be behind the Las Vegas Raiders. The Chargers are on a 2-loss streak right now. This divisional battle means a huge deal for the Buffalo Bills though.
The 8-6 Bills are ranked second in the AFC East with a .571 PCT. Again, the Bills might have to rely on James Cooks, Josh Allen, and Stefon Diggs. Also, this game will be a segue for Josh Allen to re-enter the MVP conversation because if he ends up winning this game, their chances of clinching a berth in the playoffs will increase tenfold.

As for the Chargers, the QB1 Justin Herbert is out for the season and for now, Easton Stick is in command and he hasn’t done a lot this year, considering he has only played 2 games this year. Also, there is a coaching situation with the Bills as their HC Brandon Staley got fired. In the wake of this, Giff Smith is acting as an interim HC. With all these changes, the road to playoffs for the Chargers looks really bumpy.
