Chargers vs. Patriots Prediction Week 8 – Latest Odds
Gambling911.com has your Chargers vs. Patriots prediction for 2017 Week 8 courtesy of our friends at AmericasBookie.com.
The san Diego Chargers opened this season with four straight loses to the Broncos, Dolphins, Chiefs and the Eagles. They have followed up those four straight loses with 3 straight wins coming by way of the Giants, Raiders, and besting the Broncos. The Chargers are clearly not the 0-4 team that they started the season out to be, they are better than that, however, do not jump on the Super Bowl bandwagon just yet!
The question here is, do they make any kind of statement going forward? The road to riches certainly doesn’t get any easier and this week they take on the reigning champions of the NFL world, in Foxboro. We all know the trouble this year with Brady and company. Take a look at their troubles and examine them closely; exactly! The troubles in New England seemed to have disappeared. This is no surprise, this is what the Patriots do. When they have a problem, they fix it, and things appear to be fixed.

The Chargers on the other hand, are they really fixed? It’s doubtful. When Phillip Rivers plays from behind, he unravels. Ok, so the argument can be made the he has played pretty well the past three games and managed very well. This is true, it’s also true that he is historically inconsistent. Rivers always puts up big numbers and he always has those brilliant moments. He also always folds.
Mr. Rivers is facing the Patriots at a very bad time and this week he had better bring everything he has plus the kitchen sink to throw at Brady and the boys. This one could be ugly. The Patriots are figuring out their woes on defense and coming together on offense. After all of the ugliness early on in New England and after all the speculation about Brady ‘being done”; it’s the same old Patriots. Don’t look for any watershed moments from the Chargers. They will respond how they usually respond and that’s usually, poorly. Expect big moments, expect some temper tantrums and expect a big New England party.
Prediction: Patriots -7
