10* NFL Game of the Week
(NFL) LA Chargers vs. LA Rams,
Point Spread: 7.00 | -110.00 LA Chargers (Away)
Result: Loss
The battle for the pride of Los Angeles is going to happen on Sunday. However, the Chargers are the new team in town compared to the Rams and the Chargers are also coming in with a 1-1 record overall and the one loss the Chargers have had came against the Chiefs in the first week in a game they were short-handed with injuries. The offense for the Chargers have done really well on the season so far with 329 yards a game in the air and 116 yards a game on the ground. The Chargers have relied on Philip Rivers to sling the ball in the air for the team with 680 yards in the air and 6 touchdowns. Rivers definitely have picked out a favorite target in Keenan Allen who has 14 receptions with 175 yards and a score. The rushing attack has leaned on Austin Ekeler who has carried the ball 16 times for 116 yards, but no scores. When it comes to the defense the Chargers are able to contain the pass rush quite a bit as the Chargers are only giving up 232.5 yards a game and have allowed only 5 touchdowns. The Chargers pass rush has sacked the opponent 6 times with 2 picks as well. I expect a very tight game and I love the Chargers and Rivers as underdogs. We're on the LA Chargers PLUS THE POINTS.
