New England did pull out a win against Arizona when Nick Folk kicked a 50-yard field goal as time expired, but Cam Newton still struggled, completing only 9 of 18 for 84 yards with two interceptions, and the Patriots finished with only 179 total yards of offense. New England is #20 in the NFL in yards gained per game and #27 in scoring with 20.8 points per game. The Pats are 1-7-1 ATS their last nine games following a win and 0-6-1 ATS after an ATS win. This is the first meeting since the Chargers lost 41-28 to the Patriots in the 2018 playoffs. Los Angeles has lost several close games this season, and it comes off a 27-17 defeat at Buffalo last week. Chargers QB Justin Herbert finished 32 of 51 for 316 yards to bring his season total to 3,016 yards, and he and Pat Mahomes are the only players to top 3,000 yards in their first 10 career starts. The rookie hasn't had much to show for it as far as the win column, but that is due to change as he has been much more effective than Newton. New England has covered just one of its last five road games and it is 2-6-1 ATS its last nine December games. Play the Chargers.
