The Las Vegas Raiders took a 44-27 loss to the Colts last time out and enter Thursday as the ninth seed in the seven-team AFC playoff race. They need to win this game to keep their playoff hopes alive, and this looks like a good spot to bounce back against a Chargers team whose playoff hopes ended a while ago.

OK, the Chargers did snap a two-game skid with a 20-17 win over Atlanta last week, but that was at home. On the season, the Chargers are 1-5 SU on the road and they have failed to cover the spread in three straight away games (at Denver, Miami, and Buffalo).

Chargers are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games following a straight-up win. Chargers are 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games overall.

8* play on LV Raiders.
