Chargers D/ST Continues to Struggle Against the Run
The Los Angeles Chargers D/ST struggled significantly against the Indianapolis Colts offense on Sunday, allowing 38 points and being heavily dominated on the ground by running back Jonathan Taylor, who rushed for 98 yards and three touchdowns. The defense has now surrendered a staggering 10 rushing touchdowns this season and an average of 140 yards rushing over the last three games. They now face a tough, well-coached Minnesota Vikings offense on a short week, which might include a returning Aaron Jones (activated from IR) to support tough, downhill runner Jordan Mason. The presence of elite wide receivers like Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison also makes the Vikings a dangerous matchup. Although the Bolts recorded a sack with the return of edge rusher Khalil Mack, their ongoing run-defense struggles against a strong Vikings ground game remain risky. RotoBaller ranks the Chargers D/ST 14th this week. Although six teams are on bye, managers should consider alternative options.
