The Los Angeles Chargers are 0-8 after falling to the Houston Texans at home in Week 9. Now the Chargers will have a chance to face the Baltimore Ravens on the road in Week 10’s edition of Monday Night Football.
The Ravens are fresh off a loss against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Thursday Night Football, where they started third-string rookie Joe Fagnano because of injuries plaguing Lamar Jackson and Tyler Huntley. The Ravens are expected to start Jacoby Brissett after acquiring him in a trade with the Arizona Cardinals for a fourth-round pick.
The Bolts enter this week as 3.5-point underdogs, according to FanDuel Sportsbook. The over/under is currently set at 38.5 points.
The Chargers hit a new low in their most recent contest against the Texans, going 2-5 entering the game. The Chargers gave up a pair of touchdowns before the end of the first half, giving the Texans a 15-point lead heading into the locker room. It was part of a 28-point unanswered run by the Texans that stretched into the early part of the fourth quarter.
The Chargers ended their long streak without a touchdown late in the fourth quarter, when wide receiver Quentin Johnston broke off a 58-yard score. However, there wasn’t much to like from their 44-22 defeat at home.
The game against the Ravens will mark the team’s first game against former defensive coordinator Jesse Minter, who became the Ravens’ head coach in the offseason.
