Two teams from the same conference and division both moving to LA and sharing a stadium doesn’t make much sense to me, one of them would have to swap conferences with the Rams I guess.

Probably wouldn't fly - the Raiders have long-standing AFCW rivalries with Denver, KC and the Chargers, and the Rams have an ancient but strong NFCW rivalry with the 49ers. The NFL should be reluctant to break up those rivalries.

I agree, but that’s what the Raiders and Chargers are asking for. The assumption is that one of them would switch to the NFC, possibly with the Cardinals. There are some who think the Rams won’t be allowed to go, or that the NFL will force the Raiders to share with the Rams, or that the Chargers might share with the Rams, but one option that is not on the table is for the Raiders to take the Carson project, that basically belongs to the Chargers, and go by themselves.
