Leg 1: Denver Broncos +3.5 (-145)
Last week’s effort by Denver against the Colts, who were destroying themselves, was not very impressive. Quarterback Bo Nix has thrown five interceptions in his last two games after a nine-game run in which he passed for 16 touchdowns and just two interceptions.
Nix has been largely reliable since Week 3, but few rookie quarterbacks perform extraordinarily well from beginning to end. The Broncos have been successfully moving the ball down the field despite his current two-game skid. Over their last three games, the Broncos offense has actually scored the third-most points per game in the NFL.
Los Angeles, on the other hand, has struggled offensively, accumulating the fewest total yards per game of any team in the league during this time, including games against Atlanta’s and Tampa Bay’s foolish defenses. The Chargers O-line has given up the third-highest sack rate over the past three games, despite having an offensive line led by All-Pro LT Rashawn Slater and Top 5 choice Joe Alt.
Denver will win the points, in my opinion.
Leg 2: Courtland Sutton Anytime TD (+165)
The Broncos offense, which has scored the third-most points per game over the last three games, has been outstanding lately, as was previously reported.
Bo Nix has been outstanding, even though he has thrown five interceptions in his last two games. Since Week 8, when the Broncos defeated Carolina by a double digit margin, Nix has passed for 15 touchdowns and only six interceptions.
With an average of just under ten targets per game, Courtland Sutton has clearly been Nix’s favorite target during this run. Sutton is now Denver’s main red zone target after finding the end zone four times in his last five games.
Leg 3: Gus Edwards Under 34.5 Rushing Yards (-105)
The Los Angeles Chargers are a prime example of a failing run game; they have struggled ever since J.K. Dobbins was injured during the team’s Week 12 loss to his old team, Baltimore.
Los Angeles has only run for an average of 60.7 yards per game over the last three games—all without Dobbins—which is the second-lowest total in the league. In other words, without Dobbins to relieve some of the strain, Gus Edwards has suffered greatly.
Edwards has only averaged 30 rushing yards a game on 3.8 yards per carry over the last three games.
The Chargers now take on the formidable Broncos defense, which this season has given up the second-fewest yards per carry and the fifth-fewest rushing yards per game.
Expect Herbert to throw the ball often because the Chargers’ primary offensive hope has been the passing game; if he doesn’t, they won’t be able to move it down the field.
