Neither of these teams is going to be participating in the playoffs this season. Oakland might have made some strides towards respectability as they prep for Vegas.

Close has not been good enough for the Chargers this season. This team is gunning to be the best 5 win team in league history. If that is a thing.
Oakland Raiders
A few weeks ago the Raiders were actually in the hunt. They were 6-4 but have lost their last four ball games. They are a bad road team this season, just one win and they finish with back to back road games.
During the losing streak the offense has really dried up. They have not scored more than 21 points in any game and were in single digits for the first two.
Josh Jacobs has been a great weapon as a rookie but he has a banged-up shoulder so you have to wonder how much they ride him over the final two games. What would be the point, they are not even playing contenders.
Darren Waller played a smidge last season but has broken out in a big way too. He is a jumbo tight end that can catch the ball. Over 1000 yards this season already.
This game looks like a toss up but I am not very high on the Raiders on the road.
Los Angeles Chargers
After a dominating win over Jacksonville that showed the potential of the team the Chargers were run off their one field last week against Minnesota, losing 39-10.

After a loss like that and with nothing to play for I can see how the Chargers might have a tough time getting off the mat. They lost at Oakland by 2 points earlier in the season.
Philip Rivers has already posted his 7th straight 4000+ yard passing season. He was interception prone this season though. It happens once every few seasons to a guy who I guess is going to the Hall of Fame.
With Melvin Gordon’s holdout they just never got the ground game going this season and you can make an easy case that Austin Ekeler is the better back. Good luck in free agency MGIII.
The defense has been nicked up all season but has good playmakers. Joey Bosa has 10.5 sacks and is as disruptive as any DE named Bosa.

4* Free NFL Betting Prediction: Los Angeles -6.5
I wish the number was a little smaller because banking on the Bolts has been a losing proposition this season. I think they will be able to get their offense going just enough to get both the win and cover. They are pretty healthy on that side of the ball.
