Los Angeles Chargers vs. Atlanta Falcons Key Stats
The Falcons' Cordarrelle Patterson is enjoying a solid season with Atlanta, but he has been dealing with a knee injury that has forced him to miss four contests. On Sunday, he'll be making his return to the lineup, and he should provide a nice boost for Atlanta. Last week, rookie running back Caleb Huntley ran for 91 yards, which was the best game of his young career. QB Marcus Mariota threw a season-high 253 yards, and he'll be up against a Chargers defense that had no answer for the Seahawks last week. The Falcons did face a weak Panthers defense previously, but the results are still very encouraging moving forward. We'll see if they can build off this performance, as consistency has been the main issue for this Atlanta offense.
Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert has been pretty good this year, and on Sunday, he'll face a Falcons defense that has had a lot of issues. Atlanta is allowing the most passing yards and the fourth-most points per game, so this could be a nice bounce-back game for the Chargers, whose three-game win streak was snapped two Sundays ago. Look for Herbert to target wideout Joshua Palmer and tight end Gerald Everett as receivers Keenan Allen and Mike Williams are out. Austin Ekeler has seen around or more than 20 touches in most of his games this year and also figures to be a central part of LA's offense on Sunday, so look for Atlanta's defense to be put to the test once again.

Los Angeles Chargers vs. Atlanta Falcons Betting Prediction
Atlanta covered the spread in each of their first six games of the year, but over the last two weeks, they've failed to cover. This is a game where Hebert, Ekeler, and the Chargers offense should have a field day against one of the worst defenses in the NFL. As a result, LA should come into Atlanta and win as well as cover since the Chargers have covered all of their three road games so far this year.
Prediction: Chargers -3 (-110)
