The Atlanta Falcons (4-8) will travel across the country in Week 14 to take on the Los Angeles Chargers (3-9) at SoFi Stadium. Kickoff is set for 4:25 p.m. ET Sunday afternoon in Inglewood, Calif. Below, we take a look at the early Falcons-Chargers Week 14 betting odds and lines at BetMGM Sportsbook.
The Falcons have been consistently inconsistent this season, blowing out teams like the Las Vegas Raiders and Minnesota Vikings but losing to the Chicago Bears and Detroit Lions. In Week 13, the Falcons lost 21-16 to the New Orleans Saints for their second loss to New Orleans in three weeks. The defense has improved under interim head coach Raheem Morris, but Atlanta still ranks 30th in passing yards allowed.
The Chargers were absolutely dismantled by the New England Patriots Sunday, getting blown out 45-0 in what was the worst home loss in franchise history. They now sit at 3-9 on the year having lost each of their last two games. No team in the NFL has run more plays than the Chargers this season, but L.A. still ranks 22nd in scoring.
