Las Vegas Raiders vs Los Angeles Chargers: 3 bold predictions in Week 18
Las Vegas secures the final wild-card spot
The Chargers are three-point favorites with the over/under set at 49.5, per BetMGM. Oddsmakers are taking Herbert to lead Los Angeles to the final wild-card spot while expecting the Raiders to keep it close. Those beliefs are in part due to Las Vegas’ defense rising to the occasion over the past few weeks, holding their past three opponents to under 20 points.
Meanwhile, Carr and Renfrow have been in sync, with Jacobs finding his gear at the right time to jolt Las Vegas’ ground game. For that reason, Las Vegas will find a way to win, someway and somehow. It might not be pretty and it might not be perfect, but at this point in the season the stakes are simple: win and you’re in.
