    Team Outlook and Scouting Report

    SCOUT ANALYST TAKE

    The Chargers are #3 in our latest power ranking but with the Chiefs and Patriots ahead of them they only have a 15% chance to make the Super Bowl. This is less than the Saints or Rams do.

    2019 SEASON PROJECTION

    The Chargers may take a step back next season. They won a higher percentage of games than their neutral win percentage would indicate. Their current odds to win Super Bowl 54 are 16/1, 5.9%. Based on simulations they are a good bet to win the Super Bowl with a 8.6% chance. They are also a good bet to win the conference with a 15.8% chance at 8/1, 11.1%.

    REGULAR SEASON RECAP

    The 2018 season went much better than expected. They won 12 games vs an expected win total of 10.2. They exceeded expectations on the road. Their 62.5% home win percentage was as expected (74.5%). They won 87.5% on the road which was much better than expected (53.6%). Anyone who backed the Chargers in all of their games on the money line would be down -155 units. Against the spread, they have delivered a +130 profit risking 110 to win 100 (9-7 ATS). The Chargers have turned an ATS profit on the road but have lost at home. Below is a recap of all 16 regular games.

    They are an elite scoring team based on points per game, despite a relatively low yards per play rank. They are an elite scoring defense, which make sense given their strong yards per play allowed rank.
