The Jacksonville Jaguars will be making their first trip to the west coast this week when they take on the Los Angeles Chargers. Oddsmakers will once again have them down as underdogs but this time it will be by a big 7.5-point margin, according to BetMGM.
The Jags will enter Sunday’s game trying to remove themselves from a five-game losing streak after losing to the Detroit Lions. The Chargers, on the other hand, will be coming off their bye (which could make them more dangerous) after last falling to the New Orleans Saints by a close score of 30-27.
The Jags are currently down as a +300 underdog on the money line, which means a $100 wager on the Jags would outright win $300. The over/under is set at 49.5.
The Jags and the Chargers are two teams who are well aware of each other, meeting 11 times. Sunday will mark their sixth meeting since 2014 and the Chargers will come into Week 7 with an 8-3 record against the Jags.
Of the meetings that have occurred since 2014, the Chargers have dominated the Jags winning four of five. Of course, one of those meetings took place last December in a game the Chargers won by a score of 45-10.
