The Chargers lead the series 7-3

The Jaguars have an unfortunate history with the Chargers. The Chargers lead the series 7-3 and have won six of the last seven matchups. Both teams boast a 4-8 record and are looking to right the ship as each are coming off of multiple game losing streaks.

Luckily the game is in Jacksonville since generally, the Jaguars don’t travel well to the west coast. Veteran quarterback Philip Rivers has struggled this season, turning the ball over at an alarming rate with 15 picks on the season. Against a weak offensive line, the Jaguars’ defensive unit should be able to take advantage and make it a tough game for Rivers.
