The set-up: No need to overthink this one in my opinion, as the Chargers have already stated that starting QB Philip Rivers won't see any action at all in this one. LA still has plenty of talent of course, but when looking for "difference makers" in the preseason (especially in Week 3, the all important "dress rehearsal"), then I do definitely believe that this is significant.

The pick: I'm also partial to Seattle's backup QB Geno Smith, who wlll reportedly see significant time here as well (the Hawks will also feature third stringer JT Barrett as well today). The Chargers turn to Tyrod Tyalor and Cardelle Jones, both of whom I believe will struggle vs. the Hawks' aggressive defensive front. I'm banking on Wilson and company delivering the goods in Week 3. Play on the Hawks money-line.
