Game: New England Patriots vs Los Angeles Chargers
Time: 1:00 pm ET
What’s up guys! It’s me your guy 5Bucks bringing you another NFL play that will be an absolute banger!
We are betting on the first game in the NFL Slate all the way to Foxboro where the Pats will measure up against the Chargers.
The Chargers are 9-6 playing for a WC spot and are playing the 3-12 Pats on the road. If we simps are were betting simply on the records, is easy to know which side to back up. But let’s hit the numbers.
The Chargers have been very mid to bad as of late, with a 2-3 record on their last 5 games and have been absolutely dreadful on the defensive side of the ball allowing 28 ppg and a whooping 386 total yards. And now they have Gus Edwards out, and yes I know Dobbins is back on, but I have my doubts he will be 100%. They have scored 20 ppg on their last 5 games with only 2 of them going 20+, and averaging a low 291 yards per game. We add that they are one of the worst offenses on the road (it’s normal since they play in a dome) where they put up only 271 yards per game on the road. Now playing on a rainy day at Foxboro.
The Pats have been terrible, with Drake Maye they have been looking better, BUT still terrible. But as their last 3 games they have been putting upt 370 yards per game while scoring 21 ppg. At home is where they perform best where they have been scoring 24 ppg with Drake Maye and pairing it with a Chargers defense that struggles lately and on the road? Give me the points and back up the Pats
My prediction: Pats +6 -110
