This is a play on the LAS VEGAS RAIDERS for our Sunday Free Play. The Chargers finally broke into the win column but nearly gave the game away again with bad coaching decisions which has haunted this team going back to last season. They avoided disaster by picking off a pass with their backs up against the goal line and despite having one of the best quarterbacks, Los Angeles continues to underachieve. Making the poor start even more bizarre is the fact the Chargers have committed only one turnover but the defense has put the pressure on the offense to keep up. Defensively, the Chargers are ahead of only the Broncos is opponent yppl allowed at 6.6 which is actually over a half-yard worse than the hapless Bears. Las Vegas is also 1-2 to start the season and it was another coaching headscratcher last week with Josh McDaniels opting to kick a field goal late in the game down eight points instead of trusting his offense that was moving the ball. So we are faced with backing this team with coaching issues but the difference is in the line that is overpriced in a divisional game matching two teams not that far off from each other. Las Vegas has been much better defensively and on offense, the Raiders have listed quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo as questionable as he is in concussion protocol and it is not a big issue if he cannot go with his 84.1 passer rating that is made up of more interceptions than touchdowns. It is a home game for the Chargers but there is little home field edge here. Play (271) Las Vegas Raiders
