Los Angeles Chargers -6
The Pittsburgh Steelers will travel tonight to SoFi Stadium tot take on the Los Angeles Chargers and I like the Chargers to win this one by at least a TD tonight.
Pittsburgh got come good news that Ben Roethlisberger will be available for this matchup, however, this is still not an offense that has had much success on the offensive end as they come into this game averaging just 19.7 ppg. Los Angeles has struggled defensively as of late, however, they have enough talented defensive to give the Steelers offense trouble in this one.
Los Angeles needs to find their offense that has struggled over the past month, however, the good news for the Chargers is that they are going to be facing a Steelers defense that is going to be missing impact players in T.J. Watt, Minkah Fitzpatrick, & Joe Harden. Detroit was able to have a bunch of success on the ground last week against the Steelers and I think we are going to see the Chargers offense have a big night tonight at home.
The Steelers are 3-8 ATS in their last 11 games after accumulating more than 350 total yards in their previous game & 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games overall. The Chargers are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games following a ATS loss and 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games vs. AFC opponents.
Los Angeles has lost 3 of their last 4 games, however, this is no doubt a talented team and as I think they play with a little extra motivation in this one, knowing that this is a critical game for their playoff chances, I’m taking the Chargers to win by a TD and cover this spread. Good Luck!
Brett’s Pick Los Angeles Chargers: -6 -110
