(NFL) LA Chargers vs. Las Vegas,
Money Line: -156.00 LA Chargers (Away)
Result: Loss
T.M. Selection: Chargers ML.

I like the LA Chargers to win on the moneyline against the Las Vegas Raiders in this game on Sunday. Both of these teams are 9-7 this year so this game is do or die for both teams, the winner goes to the playoffs in a Wild Card and the loser goes home unless the Colts lose then it's time to bust the math out. The Chargers broke their mini losing streak with a win over the Broncos in their most recent game and they looked good in that game winning it by 20+ points. The Chargers have had their moments this year but overall they have a really good team on both offense and defense when everyone is healthy and I think they are the better team here that will come away with the win. The Chargers can put up 30+ points if they need to and they have made some crazy comebacks in a few games this year. Their defense looked a lot better too last week and I think Justin Herbert is going to step up in this game and carry his team to that Wild Card spot. The Raiders have been getting by lately winning 3 games in a row just to get here with a chance at the postseason but they haven't looked great in those games just barely winning and their offense has been underperforming too. They have won 3 games in a row but all of those wins have been by 4 points or less and the most points their offense scored in any of those games was 23 points, the other 2 games they won without scoring 20 points. I think the Chargers offense is going to overwhelm the Raiders defense in this game and I don't think the Raiders will be able to come back in this game if they fall behind with how their offense has looked lately. They have come a long way but they have had so many negative things happen to them off the field this year that it just seems like it's not their year and all of these distractions are finally going to catch up to them here. I think the Chargers are just the better team and they are going to find a way to win this game and go to the playoffs. I like the Chargers ML in this game.

T.M. Prediction: 28-13 Chargers.
