Chargers vs. Jets key players to watch

Los Angeles Chargers

Morgan Fox: Not enough people are talking about defensive end, Morgan Fox, who has already recorded five sacks this season. If the Chargers' defense can have a good game and shut down the Jets' lowly offense, they're going to have a great chance to win the game. Morgan Fox and Joey Bosa pressuring the quarterback is going to play a big role in that.

New York Jets

Breece Hall: This Jets offense isn't going to win games on the arm of Zach Wilson, I think we know that by now. For them to have a chance to win on a weekly basis, they need to continue to ride with Breece Hall, who is averaging a blistering 5.7 yards per carry on the year. Let's see how he fares against this Chargers defense.

Chargers vs. Jets prediction and pick

It's time to sell high on the New York Jets. Sure, they won three straight games. Big whoop. They stink. They're 31st in the NFL in EPA/Play and dead last in success rate. Their offense converts just 22.99% of third down opportunities and as bad as the Chargers defense has been, they've been solid on third down, keeping teams to a third down conversion rate of just 37.65%.

Make no mistake about it, the Chargers have stumbled early in the season in a tough schedule, but their offense is still one of the best in the league and they showed last week against the Bears what they can do against bad football teams.

I can't imagine a world where the Jets offense can keep pace with Justin Herbert and company. I'll back the Chargers to win and cover.
