SoFi home opener is week 2 hosting the Chefs on Sunday September 20 (Week 2)
2020 Schedule Announced
By Chargers Communications
Posted Thu, May 7, 2020 4:34 PM
The National Football League unveiled its complete schedule for the 2020 season on Thursday, with the Los Angeles Chargers opening the regular season on Sunday, Sept. 13 in Cincinnati against the Bengals. The Bolts will christen their new SoFi Stadium home the following week on Sunday, Sept. 20 against the AFC West-rival Kansas City Chiefs. Los Angeles will also close out the regular season against the Chiefs in Kansas City, marking the first time since 2014 - and just the 13th time in team history - that the season opener and finale are on the road.
In conjunction with the schedule release, the Chargers will hold an exclusive presale of select single-game tickets for Season Ticket Members from 4:30 pm - 6:00 pm PT. Public on-sale of select single-game tickets begins at 6:00 pm PT on chargers.com/tickets.
With a record of 33-27 in season openers, the Chargers face off with Cincinnati in an opener for the fourth time. The Bolts are 3-0 in season openers against the Bengals and most recently opened the 2002 campaign in Cincinnati, winning 34-6. Overall, the team owns a 20-14 all-time regular-season record against the Bengals.
Los Angeles will make its regular-season debut at SoFi Stadium in Week 2 against the Kansas City Chiefs, the sixth home opener in history against the division foe and the second time in three seasons. The Bolts have won nine of the last 16 home games against Kansas City and look to build on their 55 all-time regular-season wins against the Chiefs, the most against any one team.
The Chargers follow up with another home game as the Carolina Panthers become the first NFC opponent Los Angeles will face in SoFi Stadium. Los Angeles last hosted Carolina in September 2008 for the season opener.
In Weeks 4 and 5, the Bolts travel to a pair of NFC South opponents in the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and New Orleans Saints, facing the latter on Monday Night Football. Los Angeles is 8-3 all-time against Tampa Bay, 5-1 in road games and 5-0 against the Buccaneers when scoring 25 or more points. The Chargers own a 7-5 record against the Saints, with the Oct. 12 matchup marking the first between the two teams on a Monday night.
Los Angeles returns home the following week to face off with the New York Jets. Winners of three-straight games against the Jets, the Bolts own a 22-12-1 record in the series. The Chargers posted the series' only shutout in their last home contest against New York in 2015, winning 31-0.
The Bolts head back across the country in Week 7, this time to South Florida, to play the Miami Dolphins for the second time in as many seasons. In the matchup last year, Los Angeles defeated the Dolphins 30-10 - the largest margin of victory in the series since 1993.
The Chargers return to Los Angeles for a pair of home games before the bye week, first playing the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 8. The Bolts have won all four home matchups in their series with Jacksonville and have squared off with the Jaguars eight times in the last 10 seasons. A week later, Los Angeles faces the Las Vegas Raiders at SoFi Stadium. The Chargers have defeated the Raiders in 12 of their past 17 home games.
The Bolts return to the road for back-to-back games against the Denver Broncos and Buffalo Bills after the Week 10 bye. Los Angeles plays in Denver following the bye for the second-straight year. The Chargers are riding a four-game winning streak against Buffalo, including two road games.
Los Angeles then hosts a pair of games against the New England Patriots and Atlanta Falcons. The Bolts and Pats have split the last four Chargers home games in the series while Los Angeles snapped a six-game skid against Atlanta in their most recent meeting with a 33-30 overtime victory in 2016.
In Week 15, the Bolts head to Las Vegas for the first time to take on the Raiders. It will mark back-to-back seasons with a Thursday Night Football matchup between the teams and the eighth such meeting in history. The Chargers have won two of their last three matchups on Thursday and have an 8-8 record all-time on Thursday nights.
Los Angeles closes out the home schedule by hosting the Denver Broncos in Week 16 on either Saturday, Dec. 26 or Sunday, Dec. 27. The exact date, time and network will be announced after Week 8. The Bolts have a home record of 34-26 against the Broncos, scoring at least 20 points in 10 of the last 14 matchups. Los Angeles has a Saturday-night record of 2-2.
The regular season concludes at Arrowhead Stadium with the Bolts facing the Chiefs on Sunday, Jan. 3. The Chargers look to win at Kansas City for the second time in three seasons. It's the second-straight season that Los Angeles's season finale comes on the road against the Chiefs.
In addition to the 2020 regular-season schedule announcement, the Bolts' preseason opponents have also been finalized. The Chargers again are slated to play four NFC teams, including three from the NFC West. The Bolts open SoFi Stadium in the first week of the preseason against the Dallas Cowboys. Los Angeles owns a 9-7 preseason record against Dallas, winning the last four matchups in the series, including three at home.
In Week 2 of the preseason, the Chargers host the Rams in what will be the 38th preseason meeting between the teams. The Bolts won the last preseason matchup with the Rams at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum in 2017, 21-19, and hold a 19-18 all-time advantage in the preseason.
Los Angeles heads north to face Seattle for the third preseason game. The Bolts have squared off against the Seahawks 17 times in the preseason. The matchup marks the first preseason game between the two to take place in the Pacific Northwest since 2014.
The preseason once again wraps up with a trip to San Francisco to play the 49ers. The Chargers face off with their most frequent preseason opponent for the 34th-consecutive year. Los Angeles has posted 22 wins against the 49ers, the team's most wins against a single preseason opponent, including back-to-back victories over the past two years.

THEN FLY WEST COAST FOR THE JETS, CLEAR BACK EAST COAST FOR JAX, THEN BACK TO VEGAS FOR rAIDERS ?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! What in the living hell kind of a ................... then they gave us the damn bye week ?!?!?!?!?!?! Are we supposed to use the goddamn bye week to bury our dead this year !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Season Opener Notes - The Bolts open the season on the road against Cincinnati, the fourth time facing the Bengals ever in a season opener. The Chargers boast a 3-0 record in season openers against the Bengals, last winning a road game to open the 2002 season, 34-6. The Chargers have a 33-27 record in season openers, including a 16-18 mark when the season-opening contest is played on the road. Season Finale Notes - Los Angeles closes the season at Kansas City, marking the 13th season finale against the Chiefs and the sixth to take place in Kansas City. The teams squared off in the season finale last year in Kansas City, where wide receiver Keenan Allen broke the single-season team record for receptions. The Bolts have closed the season on the road 25 times, going 9-16 in those games. Los Angeles has an all-time regular-season finale record of 30-30. Bye Week Notes - The Chargers have the bye week in Week 10 for the seventh time since the open date was re-instituted into NFL schedules in 1990. It will be the second-straight year, and sixth time in history, that Los Angeles plays against Denver following the bye. Since being re-instituted in 1990, the Chargers have gone 14-16 in games following the bye week. So we play the AFC East and the NFC South this year on rotation. In years past that would be a gift. Both those divisions are better now, of course. At Tampa Bay and At New Orleans on back to back weeks ?? We should just stay out there that week. THEN FLY WEST COAST FOR THE JETS, CLEAR BACK EAST COAST FOR JAX, THEN BACK TO VEGAS FOR rAIDERS ?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! What in the living hell kind of a ................... then they gave us the damn bye week ?!?!?!?!?!?! Are we supposed to use the goddamn bye week to bury our dead this year !!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh, since you are already exhausted, go ahead and go to Mile High next where there is no oxygen ?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! WTH ?? This is why I hate the schedule makers.................... I don't buy into the 'travel' excuse, but you know that, as these guys get the best of the best when traveling. Not sure I would stay away from home between the TB and NO games, as I prefer the normalcy that routine brings. but if they happened to be sitting at 1-3 before the NO game, perhaps a change up would be best. If they are 4-0, not a chance I stay away from home and routine, but that is just my bias. The schedule is what it is......good clubs just smile and play them as they come along.
