Chargers vs. Rams Free Pick
The Chargers look to rebound after losing to Oakland last week when they take on the Rams this Sunday. Read on to check out our pick for this Week 6 matchup.
Before we get to our pick for this game, let’s take a look at the latest odds first.
Oddsmakers from online sports book SBGGLOBAL.com have made the Rams 9-point underdogs for their game against the Chargers this Sunday. The over/under total is currently 45 points.
The Chargers are just 2-3 this year and 2-3 against the spread, with all three of those loses coming on the road. In their three road losses this season, they’re giving up an average of 27.7 points per game.
The Rams, meanwhile, are 2-3 overall and are 3-2 against the spread, which includes a 2-1 home ATS record. They’re holding opponents to just 12 points per game at home this year, compared to 19.2 PPG overall.
The Pick:
The Chargers have been absolutely brutal on the road this year and there’s no sense in thinking that they’ll turn things around this week. They’re 0-4 ATS in their last four games as a road favorite, while the Rams are 5-1 ATS in their last six games following an ATS loss. They’re also 8-2-1 against the number in their last 11 games in Week 6.
The Rams have been a confident team at home this year, where rookie quarterback Sam Bradford appears to be more comfortable. We know the Rams are coming off an embarrassing loss to the Lions last week but again, they’ve been a different team at home than on the road so far. Our pick is the Rams.
