Tennessee Titans at Los Angeles Chargers Betting Odds

Los Angeles is favored by 7 points in this AFC game. The Titans are currently getting +220 moneyline odds while the Chargers are -260. This AFC matchup will probably have multiple live betting opportunities. The over/under is set at 45.5 points.


The Titans are 3-3 straight up (SU) while the Chargers are 4-2 SU. Each team has rewarded gamblers this year as the Titans have recorded 1.1 units and the Chargers are up 1.4 units.


Los Angeles enters this one on a two-game losing streak while Tennessee has come out on top in its last three in a row. The Titans are most-recently on the rebound after a 21-0 shutout to Baltimore last week in which Marcus Mariota completed 10-of-15 passes for just 117 yards. Derrick Henry (just 21 rushing yards on seven attempts) provided the ground attack while Tajae Sharpe (two receptions, 33 yards) and Anthony Firkser (two catches, 25 yards) manned the receiving duties in the defeat.


Los Angeles just picked up a 38-14 win over Cleveland in Week 6. Philip Rivers completed 11-of-20 passes for 207 yards, two touchdowns and one interception. Melvin Gordon III (132 yards on 18 rush attempts, three TDs) and Austin Ekeler (60 yards on seven carries) handled the running game as Keenan Allen (four receptions, 62 yards) and Tyrell Williams (three catches, 118 yards, two TDs) led the pass-catching corps in the win.


Tennessee has run the ball on 49.1 percent of its offensive possessions this year while Los Angeles has a rush percentage of 45.4 percent. The Titans have produced 99 rush yards per game and have two scores on the ground this year. The Bolts are logging 137 rush yards per contest and have six total rushing TDs.


If 2018 results are any indication, then it’s looking like the Bolts could hold an edge when it comes to applying pressure, as their offensive line has given up only eight sacks while their D-line has logged 16 sacks. The Titans offensive line has allowed 20 sacks and their defense has sacked opposing QBs on just 13 occasions.


The Titans have averaged 185 yards in the air overall and have four passing scores so far. The Bolts have produced 285 pass yards per game and have 15 total pass TDs.


Defensively, Tennessee seems to have the upper hand when it comes to limiting the pass. The team has allowed 123 rush yards and 227 pass yards per game. Los Angeles has allowed 96.8 yards per game on the ground and 276.5 to opposing teams in the air. The Titans are allowing an adjusted net yards per pass attempt (ANY/A) of just 5.62 to opposing QBs, while the Bolts have given up a 6.34 ANY/A.


Mariota has put up 664 passing yards this year. He’s connected on 61-of-92 attempts with two passing touchdowns and three interceptions. Mariota’s got a 4.47 adjusted net yards per pass attempt overall, although that number sits at 2.35 over the past two outings.


Philip Rivers has produced 1,363 yards, 13 TDs and three INTs for Los Angeles. His ANY/A stands at 8.34 for the year and 11.49 over his past two outings.

Tennessee Titans vs. Los Angeles Chargers Betting Prediction

Predictions: SU Winner – Titans, ATS Winner – Titans, O/U – Over

Just doesn't click for me. The Chargers seem to be the better team in all phases and it seems like they agree, yet still pick against them. Can someone explain it to me?
 
How are the Chargers on a two game losing streak? It says they enter on a two game losing streak and then talks about how they just picked up a win vs CLE.
 
They confuse the titans and the chargers pretty much throughout the entire thing, Titans are on a two game losing streak, Chargers have won 3 straight.
 
Here is their analysis for the Saints game:

New Orleans Saints at Baltimore Ravens Betting Odds

The line for this game is placed at 3 points in favor of Baltimore. The Saints are currently getting +120 moneyline odds while the Ravens are -140. This tilt should have several live betting opportunities. The over/under is set at 49.5 points.

I thought so but was hurrying to check other games before getting out of the office. Thanks for the clarification. They do usually do a good job with their analysis, but to do 14-16 games per week, mistakes are going to happen.

I'll give them the benefit of the doubt.
 
I sure can’t.
The Chargers will smoke them. Best team that no one talks about.

Only losses to KC and the Rams.
 
Dallas Cowboys vs. Washington Redskins Betting Preview

In this Sunday NFC matchup, Washington is tabbed as the favorite and the team’s currently giving up 2 points. The Cowboys are also receiving +110 moneyline odds while the Redskins are -130. Vegas has placed the over/under (O/U) at 41.5 points, and if one team can create a bunch of points early, it’ll likely produce a nice in-game betting opportunity.


With the spread opening at -2 and the over/under placed originally at 42, odds have shifted slightly.


The Cowboys have gained 0.3 units so far and are 2-3-1 against the spread (ATS). They’ve been a good under bet and have posted an O/U record of 2-4.


The Redskins are down 0.1 units for moneyline bettors this season. They’re 3-2 ATS and own an O/U record of 2-3.


The Cowboys are 3-3 straight up (SU), including 1-0 SU against NFC East opponents. The Redskins are 3-2 SU overall and 0-0 SU against divisional foes.


The Cowboys are coming off a resounding 40-7 victory over Jacksonville last week. Dak Prescott completed 17 passes for only 183 yards and two touchdowns. Ezekiel Elliott (106 yards on 24 rush attempts, one TD) and the signal-caller Prescott (82 yards on 11 carries, one TD) led the ground attack. Cole Beasley (nine receptions, 101 yards, two TDs) and Geoff Swaim (two catches, 21 yards) shared the receiving duties in the win.


Washington just earned a 23-17 win over Carolina in Week 6. The defensive secondary allowed the Panthers to air it out for 275 yards and two touchdowns. D.J. Moore was a bright spot in the loss, posting 59 yards on four catches for Carolina. For Washington, Alex Smith completed 21-of-36 passes for 163 yards and two touchdowns. Adrian Peterson (97 rushing yards on 17 attempts) led the running game while Jordan Reed (five receptions, 36 yards) and Vernon Davis (three catches, 48 yards, one TD) led the pass-catching attack in the win.


Dallas has run the ball on 50.1 percent of its offensive possessions this year while Washington has an overall rush percentage of 45.9 percent. The Cowboys have rushed for 148 yards/game (including 138 per game against East opponents) and have four touchdowns on the ground this year. The Redskins are putting up 117 rush yards per game (0 in conference) and have five total rushing TDs.


If the numbers so far this season can translate to this game, then it appears the Cowboys may have the advantage in all aspects of the ground game, as their backfield has produced 5.1 yards per carry while the defense is allowing 3.5 YPC to opponents. The Redskins have ran for 4.0 yards per carry and given up a YPC of 4.1 to opponents.


The Cowboys offensive scheme has logged 191 yards/contest in the air overall (160 per game versus conference opposition) and has seven passing TDs so far. The Redskins have put up 241 pass yards per contest (0.0 in the NFC) and have six total pass scores.

Predictions: SU Winner – Redskins, ATS Winner – Redskins, O/U – Under

I know we had a bye last week, but it's worth noting that the Skins had an average of only 198 ypg through the air before we exposed them. Now their secondary looks like trash. Just pointing that out...WHO DAT.

Indeed.
We mentally broke them. That’s on them.
They continued their win one lose one ways. That’s who they’ve largely been under Jay. Even if one believes that the league gifted the Saints the win against Washington, their secondary still allowed themselves to be broken by their own tactics and the Montae penalty was a legit call. We also could have put 60 up on them. As I’ve said before, they punch you, if you punch back they fold. Mental.
 
Better teams cover about 48% of the time.

Titans +6.5 are one my leans.
