L.A. Chargers vs New England Patriots Betting Trends
Updated:Jan 6, 2026 1:28 AM EST
The upcoming NFL Week 1 showdown on January 11, 2026, between the Los Angeles Chargers and New England Patriots at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, MA, promises an exciting start to the season. This Sunday night football game will be broadcast live on NBC/Peacock, making it a can't-miss event for football fans and bettors alike.
The New England Patriots, boasting a strong 14-3 straight-up record and a formidable 12-5 against the spread, are favorites with a -3.5 point spread and odds of -200 at Caesars. The Chargers, with an 11-6 record but a less impressive 9-8 ATS, will look to upset the Patriots. Starting quarterbacks will be crucial, with New England likely starting Joshua Dobbs, while the Chargers might rely on backup Trey Lance given the uncertainty around Justin Herbert's participation.
Analyzing the teams' strengths, the Chargers have a solid passing offense averaging 212.2 yards per game but face a Patriots defense that allows just 193.5 passing yards. The Patriots' offense is more prolific with 250.5 passing yards per game, but they face a Chargers defense allowing 179.9 yards. The run game is also a key factor, with the Patriots rushing for 128.9 yards versus the Chargers' 105.4 yards allowed. Pass protection and pass rush battles will be intense, as both teams have shown strong stats in these areas.
Betting trends show the Patriots' strong home record and tendency to cover the spread, which bettors should consider. The total points line is set at 46, favoring the over slightly. This game offers valuable betting insights for placing smart wagers. The Chargers will need to overcome injuries to key players like Justin Herbert and Bradley Bozeman, while the Patriots have some question marks but mostly healthy starters.
