Chargers vs. Jaguars Pick
Spread Pick for Chargers vs. Jaguars
- Chargers -3 (4 units)
After seeing Jacksonville crumple in the fourth quarter against a Houston team playing their backup quarterback, itβs tough to have a ton of faith in them here. Hunter Jr. is done for the season, while Thomas Jr. has regressed from last seasonβs stellar rookie campaign. Los Angeles stifled the Steelers last week and has won three straight games entering this contest. A West Coast team playing a 1 pm ET start is always concerning, but the Chargers are relatively healthy at the skill positions, which is important. Look for Los Angeles to take advantage of a suddenly reeling Jacksonville squad to come up with the road victory.
Over/Under Pick for Chargers vs. Jaguars
- Over 43.5 (4 units)
Los Angeles has split their 10 games in relation to the total this season. The Chargers split their four road games in relation to the total though they have gone over the number in four of their last five games overall, including their last two road tilts. Jacksonville has seen the over post a 5-4 mark in their nine games, though the home/road splits are interesting. The Jaguars have gone over the total in all four of their road games but stayed under the mark in four of their five home games. After seeing Jacksonville give up 26 fourth-quarter points to Houston, the potential for big outbursts is there. Take the over here as the Chargers likely put up 24 to 27 points in the win.
