The Los Angeles Chargers will host the Seattle Seahawks in Week 7 of the 2022 NFL season. This should be an offensive game, as both teams possess top-12 scoring offenses and bottom-seven scoring defenses. Let's take a look at three player props for this weekend's matchup.
Seattle Seahawks vs. Los Angeles Chargers Match Details
Fixture: Seattle Seahawks at Los Angeles Chargers
Date & Time: Sunday, October 23, 4:25 pm PDT
Venue: SoFi Stadium, Inglewood, California
NFL Player Prop #1: Austin Ekeler Over 56.5 Rushing Yards (-115)
The Seahawks have struggled to contain the running game all season, giving up at least 100 rushing yards in each of their games. While Austin Ekeler is yet to have more than 16 carries in a game all season, he has averaged 4.7 yards per carry.
With his backup, Joshua Kelley, officially out for the Chargers Week 7 contest, look for Ekeler to have a big game. He currently averages 58.2 rushing yards per game. Facing a defense that allows the second-most rushing yards in the NFL, Ekeler is set to easily eclipse that number.

NFL Player Prop #2: Justin Herbert over 1.5 Passing TDs (-215)
Justin Herbert failed to throw a touchdown against the Denver Broncos in Week 6. While the Broncos possess one of the NFL's best defenses, the Seahawks are amongst the league's worst.
Look for Herbert, who enters Week 7 leading the NFL in passing attempts, to bounce back by throwing at least two touchdowns against a Seattle defense that hasn't been any good.

NFL Player Prop #3: Austin Ekeler TD Scorer (-180)
While Austin Ekeler has not had more than 16 rushes in any game this season, he does average nearly 20 touches per game. Ekeler's 41 receptions lead all running backs, and are tied with Travis Kelce for sixth-best in the NFL.
More importantly, Ekeler has six total touchdowns over his past three games after failing to find the end zone in his first three. Facing a Seahawks defense that is near the bottom of the NFL against opposing running backs, look for Ekeler to extend his touchdown streak to four games.
