The Los Angeles Chargers (4-9) visit the Las Vegas Raiders (7-6) for the Week 15 Thursday Night Football game at 8:20 p.m. ET. Here’s a look at the early Chargers-Raiders betting odds and lines at BetMGM Sportsbook.
The Chargers snapped a two-game skid with a 20-17 win vs. the visiting Atlanta Falcons in Week 14. PK Michael Badgley’s 43-yard field goal as time expired sealed the victory for the Chargers, who covered as 1-point favorites. The game finished Under the 49 total. Tied at 17-all, CB Mike Davis’ interception with 36 seconds left gave LA the ball at its own 26-yard line. QB Justin Herbert then completed passes of 8, 15 and 25 yards on three of his next four pass attempts to set up Badgley’s winning kick. Hebert finished with 243 passing yards, 2 touchdowns and 1 interception, while RB Austin Ekeler added 79 rushing yards and 67 receiving yards. The defense held the Falcons to 70 rushing yards and had 3 interceptions.
The Raiders lost at home 44-27 to the Indianapolis Colts in Week 14, suffering a big hit to their playoff hopes. The defense was so bad that Las Vegas fired defensive coordinator Paul Guenther after the game. The Raiders allowed 212 rushing yards and 7.7 yards per play, didn’t record a turnover or a sack and forced just one Colts punt. Indy, which was a 2.5-point favorite, scored on 7 of its first 8 possessions with the 9th and final possession ending in victory formation. The Over of 52 cashed easily. QB Derek Carr threw for 316 yards with 2 TDs and 2 picks in the loss, while WR Nelson Agholor pulled in 5 catches for a game-high 100 receiving yards in the loss.
