Las Vegas has a good balance of talent, outscoring opponents last year. The offensive line is very good behind QB Gardner Minshew II and RB Zamir White led the NFL in rushing over the last four games of 2023. Defensively, the Raiders ranked 15th in total defense, 12th in passing, and ninth in points allowed (19.5 per game). Los Angeles is favored but off a 5-12 campaign. There's a new playbook with new head coach Jim Harbaugh and the team lost veteran WRs Mike Williams and Keenan Allen. The defense was bad, ranked 28th in total yards allowed, 30th against the pass, and 24th in points allowed (23.4 per game. The Chargers are on a 12-3 run UNDER the total, plus on a 1-3 SU/ATS run as a favorite. The Raiders won the last meeting, 63-21, in December of last year, and the UNDER is 7-1 when these rivals clash at the Chargers. Play Las Vegas + UNDER the total.
