LA -2.5 as the playoffs begin early to get into the playoffs for both these teams. The first meeting was first half control on the way to a Chargers 28-14 primetime win. The Raiders will have to make adjustments if tonight’s game is to go different. The Chargers hopes rest in Herbert, when he has a passer rating over 100 they are 8-0, when he doesn’t they are 1-7. The QB matchup brings number 4(Herbert) vs. number 5(Carr) in passing yards. The Las Vegas pass defense may be the key, they are 9th in the league allowing 214.6 and only 142.3 the last 3 games. On the Chargers side they have allowed 224.3 for the year, but 298 in the last 3 games. The secondary will look to put up a better game then they had in Houston.
The total at 48.5, 3 of the last 10 matchups would’ve gone over that number.
We should see a good game and well I’ll be rooting for the Raiders so we will see how it goes, my prediction 24-21 Raiders.
