Chargers News: - Bolts From The Blue

Good morning, Chargers fans!

Each week, every platform imaginable puts out their picks for the upcoming week’s games. This week, I thought I’d just pass along one from CBS Sports where analyst John Breech has the Chargers beating the Saints at home by a score of 24-16. That runs right along FanDuel Sportsbook’s odds with the Chargers opening as 7.5-point favorites this week.

The Saints are last in total defense so, ideally, this is a pretty smooth week. But after Monday night, I don’t think I can let myself call any remaining game on the schedule a real “layup” anymore.

And now for today’s links.
