After their impressive come from behind 33-30 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers this past Monday night, the L.A. Chargers now host one of the worst teams in the second half of the season on Sunday. L.A. is a massive -14 favorite. Will the Chargers cover the huge spread? Or, will the Bengals play well enough for at least a cover win?
The Los Angeles Chargers have been hot since the end of September. The Chargers are 8-1 straight up in their last 9 games. No win was as impressive as their last.
Finding themselves down 23-7 on the road versus the Steelers, Philip Rivers didn’t allow his team to quit. He rallied the Chargers to an improbable 33-30 win. L.A. won’t take a step back versus a team with a historically bad defense. Chargers roll to an easy win and cover.

Why Cincinnati Bengals are a good bet +14?
Cincinnati’s been awful this season, but when they have stepped it up enough to cover spreads, it’s often been on the road. Unlike most NFL teams, the Bengals have a winning record against the spread on the road and losing record ATS at home. In their last road game, Cincinnati almost pulled off the moneyline upset. As a +6.5 road dog versus the rival Baltimore Ravens, the Bengals only lost 21-24. If they can frustrate Baltimore, they can frustrate the L.A. Chargers.Team Statistics
