Ravens vs. Chargers Prediction
I’m taking the Chargers here. They’re the team in better form right now and while Baltimore’s still a talented team to consider in the AFC this season, the Chargers are getting a little bit of disrespect with this line attached to them. I think the Chargers are live here, especially at home in primetime. Give me Los Angeles.
