Why Bet on the Los Angeles Chargers?

The Los Angeles Chargers recorded their first loss of the season after a hard-fought game against the Dallas Cowboys. In their losing efforts, Justin Herbert threw for 338 yards on 31-of-41 passing. In the process, the quarterback was able to score a touchdown.

He had the services of Keenan Allen by his side, who closed the night with 108 yards on 4 receptions, while Mike Williams documented 91 yards on 7 receptions and the only receiving touchdown. Looking at the Chargers’ rushing plays, Austin Ekeler and Justin Jackson combined for 75 yards and 13 carries.

Defensively, Nasir Adderley led the unit with 9 tackles (8 solo), followed by Derwin James who had 7 tackles (5 solo), and a sack which he shared with Jerry Tillery. Asante Samuel, Jr. recorded the only defensive interception on top of his 4 tackles (3 solo), while Kyler Fackrell had a sack and a solo tackle to his name.

Furthermore, right defensive end Justin Jones and left cornerback Chris Harris Jr. remain sidelined due to injury, which means we are bound to see Asante starting for the team in the coming weeks. If the Chargers want to hold the Chiefs back, they have to put in the extra effort on both ends of the field.

Why Bet on the Kansas City Chiefs?

Following a close loss to the Ravens 36-35 last Sunday, the Chiefs will look to rebound from their performance and finish the game with a better record. Nevertheless, Patric Mahomes put on another show as he left the field with 343 passing yards on 24 of 31 passing, 3 touchdowns, and an interception. It was a busy night for the receivers as well.

Travis Kelce recorded a team-high 109 yards on 7 receptions and 1 touchdown, while the duo of Byron Pringle and Demarcus Robinson combined for another 109 yards and 1 touchdown apiece. Clyde Edwards-Helaire took care of rushing duties as he led the quad with 46 rushing yards on 13 carries. Meanwhile, Darrell Williams scored the only rushing touchdown of the Chiefs.

The Chiefs did well on defense as well. Anthony Hitchens took the help and recorded 12 tackles (9 solo), closely followed by Nick Bolton who had 9 tackles (8 solo). Daniel Sorensen had the only sack of the side along with 10 tackles (7 solo). Additionally, Tyrann Mathieu did well to keep his team in the game after he snatched 2 interceptions and 6 solo tackles. On Sunday night, the Chiefs enter the game with a healthy offense and defense, putting more pressure on the Chargers.

Chargers vs. Chiefs Expert Betting Predictions

Looking at the bigger picture, the Chiefs remain the favorites to top the AFC and reach the Super Bowl this season. This is a tough test for a Chargers team trying to qualify for the playoffs after failing to get there last season. Nonetheless, they have a shot at covering the spread while keeping their winning chances at bay. If the Chiefs go full throttle from the get-go, this game is theirs for the taking. Ultimately, we look forward to what the Chargers bring to the table as they take on a relatively stronger team.
