Momentum is with the Los Angeles Chargers, who come off a big defensive performance against the Raiders. However, the Broncos arguably should be 2-0 entering Week 3.

Best Bet

Chargers -2.5 @ $1.90

Bet Now

It has been an impressive defensive performance from the Chargers so far, who scored wins over the Chiefs and Raiders. They held the Raiders to only nine points on Tuesday, and they came away with many turnovers.

Not only do they have Justin Herbert at quarterback, but the defence is excellent. Khalil Mack got injured, but they have enough depth to cover him, and another big showing against the Broncos is likely.

Expectations weren’t high for the Broncos, who are 1-1. They should have won last week after getting penalised when the Colts missed a late field goal. However, that loss could have a flow-on effect, and the Chargers have no scar tissue.

Take the generous -2.5 line before money comes for the Chargers throughout the week.

Same Game Multi

Chargers -2.5, Bo Nix Under 218.5 Passing Yards, Justin Herbert 2+ Touchdown Passes, Under 46.0 Points @ $10.50

Bet Now

Bo Nix could struggle to put up yards for the Broncos. He has only 382 passing yards in two games, so the 218.5 line is worth including in NFL SGM picks.

We also like Herbert 2+ touchdowns. He has five touchdowns on the year, and with his confidence levels growing, that should only result in more TDs. He’s also throwing economically, so limiting turnovers is a key to his success.

We’re including under 46 points because we don’t expect the Broncos to put up many points. They often struggle against good defences, and it doesn’t get much better than the Chargers.

Best Value Bet

Chargers Touchdown First Possession @ $3.20

Bet Now

It’s not easy to score a touchdown on the first offensive possession, but the Chargers could march their way down the field to take a 7-0 lead.

Herbert is finding open receivers without much trouble, and the Broncos defence could struggle to contain the likes of Keenan Allen and Ladd McConkey.

We’ll take the $3.20 odds as a value NFL bet on Monday morning.
