The Los Angeles Chargers (4-3) are currently 2.5-point favorites over the Philadelphia Eagles (3-5) heading into Week 9 of the regular season. The over/under is set at 49.5, per Tipico Sportsbook.
The Chargers most recently fell to the Patriots by the score of 27-24.
After trading touchdowns early on, the same ongoing mistakes continued to bite the Bolts. Those were lack of early-down execution, the run defense, punt coverage unit, dropped passes, and penalties.
Furthermore, quarterback Justin Herbert was not at his best for the second straight week, as he was held a completion percentage of nearly 50 and was picked off twice.
The Eagles, on the other hand, had a field day against the Lions. Their victory was highlighted by a dominant run game, which included 235 yards and four touchdowns. In addition, Philadelphia’s defense forced a turnover on top of sacking Jared Goff six times and hitting him on 11 occasions.
The last time these two teams met was back in 2017, in which the Eagles came out on top, 26-24.
Sunday’s contest between Los Angeles and Philadelphia will begin at 2:05 p.m. PT and be televised on CBS.
