Los Angeles Chargers D/ST Faces a Talented, but Struggling Eagles Offense
The Los Angeles Chargers D/ST held the Las Vegas Raiders to just 14 points and a season-low 31 rushing yards last week. They head into Week 14 facing a Philadelphia Eagles offense that, despite its elite talent, has been underperforming and will be without star offensive guard Landon Dickerson. The Chargers remain a run-funnel defense and will face a tough challenge on the ground, as they are tied for fourth in rushing touchdowns allowed (14), despite a strong effort last week. However, the Bolts' secondary ranks in the top five for pass defense, with safety Derwin James leading the league in slot coverage (0.28 yards per snap). Considering Philadelphia's recent struggles and the possibility of a low-scoring, competitive game, the Chargers could force multiple sacks and turnovers. It depends on the health of quarterback Justin Herbert (hand), who is listed as questionable. If Herbert is out, the Chargers D/ST might see more time on the field as their offense stalls, which could lead to more Eagles scoring opportunities. RotoBaller ranks the Chargers D/ST as D/ST18, but they could be a sneaky good streaming option this week if Herbert plays.
