Los Angeles Chargers vs. Arizona Cardinals: Picks, Predictions, Odds and Player Props

The Los Angeles Chargers will look to win their fourth game of the season when they travel to State Farm Stadium to take on the Arizona Cardinals on Monday night.

Jim Harbaugh's team returned from their bye week last time out, beating the Denver Broncos 23-16 on the road.

Arizona fell to a 34-13 defeat at Lambeau Field against the Green Bay Packers in Week 6, meaning they hold a 2-4 record heading into Monday's encounter.

Los Angeles Chargers vs. Arizona Cardinals betting picks and predictions

Arizona Cardinals +2.0 (-110)

The Cardinals had high expectations heading into the 2024 season, with quarterback Kyler Murray back from injury and Marvin Harrison Jr. now his top target on offense.

A narrow 34-28 defeat to the Buffalo Bills in Week 1 was soon forgotten about in Week 2 as the Cardinals smashed the Los Angeles Rams 41-10.

Arizona's only other win came against the San Francisco 49ers, but defeats to the Detroit Lions, Washington Commanders, and Green Bay Packers have ensured the Cardinals have some work to do if they want to reach the playoffs.

While the Cardinals' record is poor, they have played some of the best teams in the NFL and they welcome a Chargers team that have yet to score more than 26 points in a single game.

With Murray at quarterback, the Cardinals can always stay competitive and they will also have Harrison Jr. back from a concussion.

Murray has only thrown two interceptions this season, while only Lamar Jackson and Jayden Daniels have gained more rushing yards at quarterback.

The Chargers are strong defensively, but that should not be enough to warrant backing them.

Under 44.0 total points (-110)

The Chargers and Cardinals are each known for their run games, and the visitors in particular will look to take advantage.

Harbaugh's team run the ball on 52.4 percent of their plays, which is the third-most in the NFL, but they are yet to turn that into points.

They average just 18.2 points per game and, while the Cardinals have allowed 153 rushing yards per game, Chargers QB Justin Herbert has yet to really click with his receivers in the end zone.

Harbaugh's gameplans have allowed the Chargers to suffocate teams defensively - they have allowed the fewest points and fewest touchdowns after the first six weeks - so expect this game to be a low-scoring affair.

J.K Dobbins Over 74.5 Rushing Yards (-110)

After recovering from an Achilles injury, Chargers running back Dobbins has found his feet in his new home.

The former Baltimore Ravens speedster rushed for over 130 yards in his first two appearances of the season, and he picked up another 96 against the Broncos.

Dobbins has scored three touchdowns already this season and he will relish the chance to take on the Cardinals defense, which has given up over 150 rushing yards per game.

There's no doubt that Dobbins will see plenty of the ball, with the 25-year-old earning 17 or more touches in every appearance so far this season.

Chargers backup Gus Edwards remains on Injured Reserve, so expect Dobbins' name to be constantly heard throughout the broadcast as he tries to punish the Cardinals on their home soil.
