Chargers vs. Patriots Predictions

Best Bet

Patriots –3.5 @ $1.90

It has been a top season for the Patriots, and they’re being led by young quarterback Drake Maye. The former North Carolina Tarheel star is an MVP candidate after throwing 31 touchdowns, and he could live up to the hype in the playoffs.

The Patriots need Maye to not break under the pressure of playoff football, having not played many big games for the Tar Heels. However, he has led the Patriots to some good comeback wins, and that’s a good sign.

They have won three straight games, and they’re now facing a Chargers team coming off losses to the Texans and Broncos. QB Justin Herbert is playing injured, and that won’t help their chances of beating the Pats in the Wild Card Round.

Same Game Multi

Patriots –3.5, TreVeyon Henderson Anytime Touchdown Scorer, Justin Herbert Under 226.5 Rushing Yards, Under 46.5 Points @ $11.50

Boosting our Chargers vs. Patriots same game multi odds is TreVeyon Henderson to score a touchdown. He comes off a two-touchdown game, and when he scores, he typically scores in bunches. Take the $2.50 available with NFL odds.

We expect Herbert to struggle in the passing game. He hasn’t recovered from his left-hand injury, and although it’s not his throwing hand, it’s clearly having an effect, and his offensive line hasn’t been doing him any favours.

Our final score prediction is 27-13, so we’re including under 46.5 points in our multi, and punters have a few points to work with.

Best Value Bet

Drake Maye Anytime Touchdown Scorer @ $4.00

Maye isn’t always looking to use his legs to score touchdowns, but he scored two against the Bills in a losing effort.

If they Chargers look to flush him out of the pocket close to the end zone, he’s quick enough to rush for a touchdown, and the odds are generous.

We picture this game being a celebration for the Pats impressive year, and Maye could cap it off with a TD.
