The Los Angeles Chargers are 0-3 after falling to the Buffalo Bills on the road in Week 3. The schedule doesn’t get much easier as the Seattle Seahawks are on deck in Week 4.
The Seahawks are the defending champions, but they also lost their most recent game in Week 3 against the Washington Commanders. The Bolts entered this week as 6.5-point underdogs, per FanDuel Sportsbook. The over/under is currently set at 44.5.
The Chargers looked good in the first three quarters of their game against the Bills. They started off with a 10-0 lead in the first quarter, but gave up that many points in the second to take the game to a tie at halftime. The Chargers held the Bills scoreless in the third while tacking on a chip-shot field goal, but the fourth quarter is when everything unraveled. They allowed a pair of touchdowns, one each to Josh Allen and James Cook, that broke the game open for Buffalo.
The game proved that the Chargers can be competitive against some of these tough teams on their schedule, and the Seahawks should be no exception.
Seattle has dealt with injuries this season. Sam Darnold missed the team’s Week 2 contest against the Arizona Cardinals with a glute injury, but he is healthy now. Seattle hopes that another full week of practice should have him closer to his usual self. The Chargers will have to disrupt his rhythm if they want a chance at pulling off the big upset.
