What TV channel is Bills-Chargers on tonight? Live stream, how to watch online

With three games remaining, Josh Allen knows the only thing the Buffalo Bills can do is handle their own business. That starts when they visit the Los Angeles Chargers on Saturday, Dec. 23. The game will stream live exclusively on Peacock.

Buffalo has overcome a midseason swoon, criticism of coach Sean McDermott and a rash of defensive injuries to win three of four. That stretch included a 31-10 rout of Dallas last Sunday.

The Bills are one of four teams at 8-6, but Cincinnati and Indianapolis go into the weekend holding the final two wild-card spots. The Bengals beat Buffalo on Nov. 5 while the Colts and Houston Texans have better conference records.

Buffalo, though, could receive early Christmas gifts. Cincinnati travels to Pittsburgh on Saturday, while Houston hosts fellow wild-card contender Cleveland (9-5) on Sunday.

The Bills have climbed back into playoff contention thanks in part to quarterbacks coach and interim offensive coordinator Joe Brady, who has brought balance to the unit.

James Cook is second in the league in rushing yards (968) and third with 1,401 scrimmage yards. The second-year running back has five straight games with at least 100 scrimmage yards, matching the longest streak by a Bills rusher since LeSean McCoy in 2016.

Cook will be facing a Chargers run defense that has allowed an average of 146.2 yards over the past six games. Buffalo has also used Latavius Murray near the goal line, while also working in Ty Johnson as a change-of-pace runner.
