Game Preview
The Los Angeles Chargers will battle head on the Houston Texans in an AFC clash. The Chargers received a surprising home loss via the Jaguars in their previous match. The Texans sadly remain winless after a close away loss to the Bears last week.
The Los Angeles Chargers are in desperate need for a win. It’s early in the season only week four however they can’t afford a third straight loss. LA won the season opener against the Raiders and has since then lost to the Chiefs with a 27-24 scoreline and then a 38-10 home loss to the Jaguars.
Justin Herbert is posting big numbers. The 24-year-old QB had 334 yards against the Chiefs followed by 297 last week. He was playing with a rib injury and only connected on 55% of his passes in the loss to the Jags. Herbert now has 910 passing yards accompanied by a 7:2 TD to INT ratio.
Austin Ekeler has yet to find his mojo. The 27 year old had 900 rushing yards back in 2021 and has only managed to grab 80 yards this time around. The running game will need to improve as fast as possible, currently they place last in yards per game. Mike Williams is definitely one of the better WRs in the league but only achieved a single catch in his latest game, as the WR has 138 receiving yards on the season.
The Chargers’ defense was definitely punished in their last match. They had no real counter for Trevor Lawrence or the overall Jaguars’ running focused game. They finished with 0 sacks and gave up 413 total yards through misplay. The pass defense has been an issue as well, placing 20th while the rush defense is currently placed 12th. Los Angeles is scoring an average of 19.3 points, standing 17th overall. The defense is normally conceding around 28 points, slotting the team 29th in the ranking.
