Jacksonville Jaguars
Jacksonville comes into this matchup as the #4 after defeating Tennessee for the AFC South crown.
The Jags haven’t been able to establish the run as of late and rely on the passing game. The Chargers profile well against the pass (10th by DVOA) so it’s possible we see the Jags struggle here.
Defensively, Jacksonville has struggled to stop the pass, but they do generate the 4th highest pressure rate in the NFL. Making Herbert uncomfortable would go a long way in a winning effort.
Records
Jacksonville has been sterling as home underdogs this season, going 4-0 ATS and covering by an average of 12.6 points.
Similarly the over has been a mixed bag — Jacksonville’s 8-9 (47%) record to the over doesn’t present much of an edge.
Los Angeles Chargers
The Chargers had won 4 in a row before dropping week 18 to the Broncos. Seeing that the playoffs are often about getting hot at the right time and the Chargers could fit the bill here. Keenan Allen has been a big return for the offense.
Since week 14 they rank 8th in EPA/play and are a fast offense, ranking 4th in seconds/play. There’s a scenario where they quickly sink the Jags offense.
Defensively they shape up well to stop the Jags main game plan and they have the stars to make plays. They’re a notoriously tight group led by Khalil Mack and represent an upgrade over Tennessee’s unit.
Momentum
As I have said above, the Chargers are hot at the right time. I think we can count on riding that into this matchup and possibly beyond. Herbert is the type of transcendent QB talent that can make the difference.
Can they carry this momentum on the road to advance to the divisional round?

4* Free Jacksonville Jaguars vs. Los Angeles Chargers NFL Betting Prediction: LAC -1.5
Point often overlooked the Chargers have more veteran talent here and they profile well against the Jacksonville offense.
Speaking of, the Jacksonville offense only managed 1 touchdown in what was essentially a playoff game. Without the strip sack returned for a touchdown, we may be previewing the Titans in this spot.
The Chargers have done well as a road favorite, going 4-1 ATS, covering by an average of 3.5 points.
Current Odds
Then again, the fact that the Chargers are favored on the road is surprising, if for only the fact that Jacksonville has shown up as a home underdog this season.
Indeed, neither team has performed to the over this season at a predictable rate, so we’re safe in picking a side here rather than a number.
