Game Preview
Houston Texans
The key to the win here is for the Texans to impose early scrimmage control and press Justin Herbert. That way, the demoralized Chargers would stop defying, yet go along with their sealed fate. They have the key to pressuring Herbert in LB Will Anderson, one of the DPOY favorites, who leads the league with 7.5 sacks.
Texans’ odds of reaching the playoffs are not as promising as they were at the start of the campaign. Though, a win here would undoubtedly improve those, as well as the team’s morale.
LA Chargers
Meanwhile, nothing can improve the Chargers’ morale. They look like a bunch of reserves, and it appears that they have already given up on chasing the playoffs. Justin Herbert is a walking target for the rival’s defenders, and believe it or not, he leads the league’s worst offense, which averages 14.1 ppg.
The Chargers are losing by an average of 10.9 points, and that is valuable betting info for those who want to wager on NFL spread betting. It’s also unpleasant data for any Chargers fan.
Texans vs. Chargers Predictions
By all means, take the Texans, who are well-rested, who had time to scout their rivals, and whose morale is way higher. For anyone still doubting, remember the LAC has the worst offense in the league.
