NFL Prediction on the LA Chargers and how many games they’ll win in 2023

AFC WEST

ASA’s NFL WIN TOTAL UNDER 9.5 WINS LA CHARGERS +110

The Chargers face the rest of the AFC West twice which features Kansas City, Denver and Las Vegas. Obviously, the Chiefs are the Super Bowl Champs with their core players returning. The Broncos are a team with a great defense, a hall of fame QB and genius head coach in Sean Payton and could make a huge jump in 2023-24. The Raiders are a bit of an unknown but could be better with their QB change. They also face the AFC East which could be the best division in the league and also get the Cowboys and Ravens. The Chargers had a negative net yardage differential as they gained +5.3 yards per play but allowed -5.9YPPL. We can also expect a regression in turnovers as the Chargers benefitted from the second-best net turnover differential per game in the NFL at +0.6. We also don’t feel they can sustain their 3^rd down conversion rate of 6.7 per game from a year ago which was best in the league. The mystique surrounding the Chargers is their offense which is deemed as one of the best in the NFL with high profile QB Justin Herbert. You might be surprised by the fact that the Chargers ranked 19^th in offensive DVOA last year, were 12^th overall in scoring and 21^st in Yards Per Play. Los Angeles allowed the 29^th most Yards Per Play a year ago and were 23^rd in scoring defense giving up an average of 23.1PPG. The Chargers were also in the bottom half of the league in defensive DVOA rankings. We don’t see the Chargers getting 10 or more wins this season.

OTHER BETTING OPTIONS:

• LA CHARGERS NOT TO MAKE PLAYOFFS  -120 – This ties into our assessment of their win total. If Denver makes a jump the Chargers could finish 3^rd in the AFC West. The AFC East and AFC North will have multiple teams from their division advance into the playoffs which could leave Los Angeles on the sidelines come the postseason.
