Los Angeles Chargers vs Miami Dolphins Prediction
I’m not high on the Chargers, especially after what we’ve seen back-to-back weeks. There’s also the west coast team traveling to the east and having to play an early game. Not getting the warm and fuzzy feeling, folks. However, there’s no way you can back this Dolphins squad with the way they’re playing and the fact they blew a 17-point lead to the Panthers. The Dolphins can’t run the ball and their defense is on pace to be all time bad. News of potential firings are getting louder and louder. It’s all bad in Miami Gardens right now and I’m running away from it all. It’s Chargers or pass for me.
