The Las Vegas Raiders will battle the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday.
It certainly may turn into a shootout. Both offenses have shown impressive flashes over the past few weeks.
For the Raiders, their passing defense hasn’t been a strength this season. Justin Herbert and the Chargers could throw the ball around the yard a bit on Sunday.
For the Chargers, their rushing defense has been horrific. Raiders’ running back Josh Jacobs should run all over them.
At the start of the week, the Chargers were favored by nearly a field goal against the Raiders.
Now, Las Vegas is the narrow favorite.
#Raiders have gone from a 2.5 point underdog to a 1.5 point favorite this week vs Chargers per @betonline_ag. That’s the biggest line movement of the week

Injuries are an issue with both squads, but the movement is still pretty surprising.
The Chargers are still very much in the playoff race while the Raiders are attempting to claw their way back to contention. Clearly, the sports books believe that the improvement in the passing game over the past few weeks for the Raiders is important.
Hopefully for them, they can continue that success. Davante Adams has an opportunity to have another big game.
Keep an eye on this betting line as Sunday afternoon gets closer.
