Los Angeles Chargers (0-8) at Baltimore Ravens (4-5) — Monday, November 16 | 8:15 p.m. ET | ESPN | M&T Bank Stadium, Baltimore, Maryland
The Los Angeles Chargers travel to Baltimore on Monday night to face the Ravens in a matchup between a winless team and a home side looking to improve its position. Los Angeles enters at 0-8, while Baltimore is 4-5 ahead of the 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff at M&T Bank Stadium.
The Chargers are still searching for their first victory of the season. At 0-8, Los Angeles has reached a point where every remaining game presents an opportunity to change the season’s direction. A road win against Baltimore would end the team’s winless start and provide a meaningful result as the schedule moves deeper into November.
Baltimore enters with a 4-5 record and has its own need for victories. The Ravens are below .500 and will look to use Monday’s home game to move closer to an even record. A loss to a winless opponent would be a significant setback, making the matchup important for the home team as well.
The records create an obvious contrast, but Baltimore cannot afford to treat the game as a formality. The Ravens need to convert the home opportunity into a win, while the Chargers have a chance to produce the kind of result that could change the outlook of their season.
The Monday night setting gives the matchup a standalone national audience. Baltimore will host at M&T Bank Stadium, with ESPN carrying the broadcast.
For Los Angeles, the objective is clear: secure the first win. For Baltimore, the priority is to avoid a damaging home defeat and improve a record that currently stands at 4-5.
Kickoff is scheduled for 8:15 p.m. ET on Monday, November 16.
