Chargers Daily Links: Broncos picked over Bolts for Christmas Day contest

Good morning, Chargers fans!

With the way the schedule was shaping up, it seemed like there was an awfully good chance that the Chargers could be picked to play on Christmas Day. With a game against the Rams this year, pitting both Los Angeles teams against each other on the holiday seemed like a no-brainer for the NFL.

Unfortunately, the league was just a bit off.

On Tuesday morning, it was announced that the Rams WILL play an AFC West team on Christmas Day, but it will be against Russell Wilson and the Broncos instead of Justin Herbert and the Bolts.

While that would have been really cool to see, I’m definitely not going to complain about having Christmas Day off from work. But in the meantime, I still hope whenever the Chargers and Rams face off this year, it’ll still be under the lights.

And now for today’s links.
