Best NFL Same Game Parlay Bet Today: Chargers vs. Raiders @ +400 odds on 12/14

Did my Sunday/Monday Week 14 parlay crash and burn by hitting exactly zero of the three legs? Maybe, but we are here to focus on Thursday Night Football.

And last Thursday night, our Same Game Parlay hit. So forget the weekend. We’ve got good weekday flow and will aim for it to continue in this, um, interesting matchup between the Los Angeles Chargers and Las Vegas Raiders in Week 15.

Justin Herbert is done for the season, and a Los Angeles team that was already underperforming is now officially sunk. The Raiders were sunk long ago and hit rock bottom on Sunday in a 3-0 loss to the Vikings.

Fun stuff! 

This game is terribly uninspiring, but hey, that’s why it’s time for a Same Game Parlay. My three picks this week combine for +400 odds at Caesars.

Scoring total bet: Under 34.5 points  
Player Prop Bets: Austin Ekeler under 13.5 rushing attempts; Cameron Dicker under 6.5 total points
Parlay odds: +400 at Caesars

Leg 1: Raiders-Chargers Under 34.5 points

• The Raiders have the third-worst offense in the NFL, and while the Chargers are No. 13, they are nowhere near that without Justin Herbert
• Both teams could choose to play conservatively knowing that the other quarterback will struggle to beat them
• These teams combined for a grand total of seven points last week

Leg 2: Chargers RB Austin Ekeler Under 13.5 Rushing Attempts

• Ekeler has only surpassed 13 carries once in the past four games
• He is averaging a career-low 3.7 yards per carry this season and the Raiders will likely stack the box
• The Chargers are slight underdogs, and if they are behind Ekeler will be used through the air, not on the ground

Leg 3: Chargers K Cameron Dicker Under 6.5 Total Points

• There is next-to-no-chance Dicker makes four extra points, so he would need two field goals
• Dicker only made two field goals or more in six of 13 games with Justin Herbert playing 
• Even if Dicker does get two, there is a chance that the Chargers go for two on a touchdown if they are trailing late, or don’t score one at all
