- The Los Angeles Chargers have -115 odds to go over 2.5 touchdowns.
- The Chargers have covered the spread four times (one push) in their last six games in Kansas City.
- The Kansas Chiefs are 1-11 against the spread in their last 13 games.
KANSAS CITY – This might come as a surprise, but through two weeks, the Los Angeles Chargers have only scored a total of 4 touchdowns.
This has prompted online sportsbooks to set this week’s total touchdown prop at only 2.5 for the Chargers. In what is expected to be a high-scoring affair with the Kansas City Chiefs, the game has a total of 54.5 points – one of the week’s highest.
Plagued by penalties and turnovers in the red zone, Justin Herbert and the Chargers left at least two touchdowns off the board last week.
When asked about his team’s red zone struggles, offensive coordinator Joe Lombardi was quoted as saying “the way that we’ve been moving the ball is encouraging. We just have to tighten up in the red zone. I think that will come. I hope this is just a little bit of an outlier.”

NFL betting players can look for the Chargers to be more efficient in the red zone this week, as they are facing a team that has given up a total of 65 points through two games and a total of 9 touchdowns.
The Chiefs sit as 7-point favorites on Bovada, but they have not been one to back recently, going a putrid 1-11 against the spread in their past 13 games.
The road team in this rivalry has also covered 12 of 16 times. Those telling trends provide great optimism for the Chargers to go over their 2.5 total touchdown prop.
