Chargers Getting Wide Receivers Healthy

Injuries to all aspects of the roster have plagued this hyped Chargers season. It has put a damper on the team’s expectations, but the Bolts are a game outside of a playoff spot as the team is getting a little healthy.

What was seen as an unstoppable offense last season has taken a step back and is now middle of the pack. A large part has been the absence of wide receivers Mike Williams and Keenan Allen, who have combined for 54 receptions compared to 182 last season.

However, Allen has returned over the last two weeks and immediately made an impact, with 10 receptions, 149 yards and a touchdown. Justin Herbert has seemingly been revived by Allen’s return. He has had two of his best games since the early part of the season. Herbert has thrown five touchdowns with one interception and 277 yards per game since Allen returned.

The biggest issue for the Chargers has been their defense. More specifically, defending against the run game. They are allowing 5.4 yards per carry, the worst in the NFL.

Raiders: High-Powered Offense

After the Raiders did not pick up Jacobs’ fifth-year option, he has come out and proven his worth. He leads the NFL in rushing yards with 1,159 and is fourth in touchdowns with nine. His 86-yard touchdown run in overtime to beat the Seahawks capped a monster game of 229 rushing yards, 74 receiving yards and two scores.

With that said, Derek Carr and his connection with Davante Adams has been the go-to option for the offense. The passing game is ranked in the top 10 in the NFL, including eighth in yards and touchdowns. Carr has thrown for 2,730 yards with 18 touchdowns. Adams is a yard from his third straight 1,000-yard and 10-touchdown season.

Against the Cardinals, the duo struggled with Carr throwing two interceptions and Adams ending a three-game stretch with over 100 yards. That was a big part that led to Jacobs getting 33 carries, a season high.

The defense has been one of the worst in the NFL at defending against the pass, allowing the seventh-most passing yards per game.

Chargers vs Raiders Picks & Prediction

Predicted score: Raiders 34, Chargers 31

Worth betting on the Moneyline?

After impressive wins, both teams are riding high, but no one is hotter than Jacobs. Jacobs is playing a team that can’t stop the run at all, setting it up to be a big game for him. The Raiders are 4-1 when he rushes for over 100 yards.

Worth Betting ATS?

Not necessarily because the line is even, though it could move up or down a point..

Worth Betting on the Totals?

Keep an eye on the points total. Both had great offensive performances last week, and neither defense can stop the opposing team’s strength on that end. It is a perfect blend for a high-scoring game.
