The New England Patriots will host the Los Angeles Chargers on Saturday in Week 17. Come chat with us during the game!
Welcome to Week 17 of the 2024 NFL regular season!
It’s gameday for the Denver Broncos here on a late December Saturday, but they play this afternoon. The first game will be the Los Angeles Chargers on the road against the New England Patriots. It would be good for the road team to suffer a surprising upset here.
Kickoff is set for Saturday, December 28, 2024 at 11:00 a.m. Mile High time at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts and will air on NFL Network.
My Prediction
According to FanDuel, the Chargers are clear 5.5-point favorites over the Patriots in this game. However, it would be just like the Chargers to stumble in a game like this one. New England has a decent rushing attack and the Broncos gave them a bit of a blueprint if they can stick to it like Denver did not. That said, I can’t bring myself to pick a 3-12 team to win.
Prediction: Chargers 20, Patriots 16.
