Los Angeles is a 6.5-point favorite in the latest Chargers vs. Giants odds from SportsLine consensus, while the over/under for total points scored is 43.5. The Chargers are -297 money line favorites (risk $297 to win $100),
The Chargers defense then rose to the challenge as the Giants faced first-and-goal at the 4 but came away with no points. Tuli Tuipulotu came up with a massive run stop on third-and-goal at the 1 before the Chargers forced an incompletion for a turnover on downs.
In Week 4, the Giants walked away with not only a win but also their best rushing performance of the season. The Giants gashed the Chargers for 161 total yards on the ground, the most the Chargers have allowed in a game this season.
Los Angeles Chargers offensive tackle Joe Alt (ankle) was ruled out against the New York Giants. X-rays on Alt's ankle were negative, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported. The initial diagnosis Alt's injury is a high ankle sprain, but the offensive lineman will have an MRI to confirm.
Center Bradley Bozeman (back) and safety Elijah Molden (hamstring), meanwhile, are both active after being listed as questionable. The Chargers play the New York Giants on Sunday with kickoff at 10 a.m. (PT) from MetLife Stadium. The Chargers-Giants betting line shows the Bolts are the favorites on Sunday.
Perhaps the defense’s best player this week (as has been the case so far this season), Burns created a good half dozen pressures from various angles, hit the quarterback on four of them, played some immaculate dropback coverages and finishes, made several electric plays in pursuit, and ended the game with five total tackles plus one very big sack.
They say you have to "look the part to be the part" and CBS sideline reporter Melanie Collins does just that during her NFL assignments. For Week 4, Collins was on assignment at MetLife Stadium for the New York Giants' stunning upset win over the Los Angeles Chargers.
