Eagles vs Chargers Prediction
The current betting odds have the Eagles listed as a 2.5 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Eagles have looked really good in their games this season with their 8-4 record overall which has them right at the top of the NFC East. They have been a good road team too with their 4-2 road record this year. Meanwhile, the Chargers have looked really good in their games this season with their 8-4 record overall which has them right near the top of the AFC West. They have looked good on their home field too with their 4-2 home record this year. The Chargers are off a 31-14 win over the Raiders in their last one, but they have been dealing with a ton of injuries lately and Justin Herbert picked up an injury in that game too. He should be able to play in this one, but he is still banged up and playing against one of the best defenses in the NFL. The Eagles are off a 24-15 loss to the Bears in their last one and they have lost 2 games in a row now, but they will be looking to bounce back. The offense hasn't looked great this season, but they still have a ton of talent to work with and a defense that can keep this Chargers offense at bay. The Eagles are going to be desperate to win this game and stop the bleeding, and they can take advantage of the injuries that the Chargers are dealing with. The best way to place a bet here is on the Eagles to cover the spread in this game.
