Chargers vs Eagles Prediction
I’m on the Chargers here. I just think this Chargers team is legit, and while the Eagles need the win in their own right. The fact of the matter is that the Eagles have been outgained by the majority of their opponents so far this season. It’s hard to really feel good about their chances if they keep playing with fire. The Chargers have had some questions about the level of competition on the other side during this run of form, but I still think they’re good enough to get the cover and potential outright win at home here. Give me the Chargers.
