Los Angeles Chargers +7
San Francisco 49ers -7
Over/Under: 45.5
The line on this game has been moving toward the 49ers and the total has been moving toward the under. Some sportsbooks opened this line in advance of last week’s action as low as 4.5. Most books waited until Sunday and they opened the 49ers as a 6.5-point favorite. That number is now at 7. The total has continued to drop from an opening number of 46.5.
This series has been one of streaks, as the Chargers have won the last five games against the 49ers and they are 4-1 ATS. Before their current five-game winning streak, it was the Chargers who had lost six straight games in the series. Seven of the last ten in the series have gone over the total.
If you are thinking of taking the 49ers in this game you should be aware that they are just 2-8 SU and 2-8 ATS in the week after their bye.
Los Angeles Chargers at San Francisco 49ers NFL Free Pick
We got a nice win last week with the Titans and Chiefs going under the total. This week’s game is a tough one. The public is all over the 49ers in this game and that fact alone has me considering the Chargers. The problem I have with taking the Chargers is their defense, which is awful. How is Los Angeles going to contain the 49ers offense? I just can’t see the Los Angeles defense making consistent stops. If the public wasn’t taking San Francisco, I would consider the 49ers, but I don’t like going with the public and I don’t like that trend listed above that showed San Francisco struggling after their bye week. The total has moved a full point lower and I understand that people believe in the San Francisco defense, but I think the Chargers will be able to move the ball and score points. I’ll go against the grain a little bit in this game and take the total to go over the total.
The Pick: Over 45.5
