7* NFL Best Bet: Denver vs LA Chargers
(NFL) Denver vs. LA Chargers,
Point Spread: -4.50 | -105.00 LA Chargers (Home)
Result: Loss
Yes, the Bolts always seem to struggle at home, but they are taking on a very bad Denver team at the moment and with Kansas City losing yesterday, LA has a shot at the AFC West lead with a win here. This is a game LA can not lose and while Denver may have a defensive edge. LA has a massive edge on offense. The Bolts are 4th in total yards, 2nd in passing, and 8th in scoring, putting up 24.4 ppg. The Broncos come in at 17th in total yards, 15th in passing, and 32nd in scoring at 15.0 ppg. They scored just 16 points on a bad Seattle defense on the road and also lost by 9 points to a mediocre Las Vegas team on the road. I get the fact that the Bolts are last in the league in scoring defense, but the Broncos just don't have enough offense to keep this one close. Lastly, Denver is 0-5 ATS in their last five road games while the Bolts are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 vs. AFC West. Look for LA to make a statement tonight.
