NFL Free Pick – LA Chargers vs Oakland Raiders November 7th 2019

Tonights game between the Chargers and the Raiders, should be a close battle between 2 teams that are desperately trying to make that wild card spot in the AFC. The Los Angeles Chargers are coming off to big wins as underdogs against the Bears and Packers. Oakland is coming off that big win to Detroit at home.

Chargers vs Raiders Breakdown

Will Josh Jacobs be able to run on the Chargers defense and control the clock?

LOS ANGELES OFFENSE:

I surmise the Chargers ought to have terminated their offensive coordinator earlier in the season. I don’t believe it’s a fortuitous event that the Chargers were increasingly dangerous on this side of the ball the week after they chopped out Ken Whisenhunt. They all of a sudden used their running backs appropriately, as Melvin Gordon at long last resembled the genuine variant of himself following his extremely slow start.

Gordon and Austin Ekeler slashed the Packers a week ago. It’ll be progressively hard to run on Oakland’s resistance, however the Raiders’ linebackers can be beaten in inclusion, so Gordon, Ekeler and Hunter Henry all figure to have solid exhibitions in this challenge.

Philip Rivers, in the interim, will encounter something just because this season: an absence of pressure from the defense. The Raiders don’t get to the quarterback as much, which must be what Rivers’ ears were longing to hear in light of the fact that his whole O-line is quite poor, even with Russell Okung back on the blind spot.

OAKLAND RAIDERS OFFENSE:

The Raiders are 4-4 at the present time, which may be an amazement to a few. Their extraordinary O line play has been an integral explanation behind that. In any case, there’s an opportunity Oakland could be down two blockers in this game. Rodney Hudson missed a game a week ago, while the right tackle Trent Brown, the group’s best hostile lineman, endured damage versus Detroit and could miss this challenge.

I don’t have to disclose to you the amount Brown’s nonappearance will mean against the Joey Bosa and Melvin Ingram combo. One of them previously had the edge over Kolton Miller, so Brown being gone would be a major matchup advantage for the Chargers. This will clearly make things hard for Derek Carr.

The Raiders should back things off by moving the chains on the ground, which will be conceivable with Josh Jacobs. I don’t know why the Packers would not run on the Chargers, as  Los Angeles is feeling the loss some of their top tackles. Jacobs could have a major Thursday night therefore.
