LA Chargers vs Baltimore Ravens Prediction
Los Angeles comes into this matchup playing some of their best football of the season, as they have won four games in a row, and they will be at home for this game. The Chargers have one of the best defensive units in the NFL and even though they did allow 27 last week to the Bengals, they still played very well for the first 2.5 quarters. Baltimore has lost two of their last four games and they really struggled to generate points against the Steelers last week. The Ravens have one of the best offenses in the NFL, but their defense is awful. I think we could see another high-scoring game in this matchup, as LA will only slow down Baltimore for so long, so give me the over here.
