AFC West Week 10 preview and predictions: Denver heads to Vegas

Los Angeles Chargers at Miami Dolphins

In a battle of solid rookie quarterbacks, the Los Angeles Chargers will head East to take on the Miami Dolphins. Since inserting Tua Tagovailoa into the starting lineup at quarterback, the Dolphins have won two straight games, and have a lot of confidence heading into this Week 10 matchup against the Bolts.

The Chargers counter with a star in the making at quarterback as well, as Justin Herbert has lit up the NFL since taking over as the starting in Los Angeles. Herbert is almost a guarantee to throw for 300 yards each week, and last weekend, he did everything he could to put the Chargers in position to come away with a crucial AFC West victory.

Unfortunately for Herbert, the Chargers could not come all the way back against the Raiders, who got two huge plays from Isaiah Johnson to seal the victory. The Chargers will hang in with the Dolphins in this one as well, but in the end, it will be Tua who makes enough plays to pull out the victory at home.

Prediction: Dolphins 27, Chargers 24
