Week 12 – Los Angeles Chargers (Home)

The Buffalo Bills will be coming out of their bye at 7-3 in these projections and have a home matchup with the Los Angeles Chargers. The biggest question at this point is who will be the starting quarterback?

The Chargers saw their longtime quarterback Philip Rivers leave to join the Indianapolis Colts, leaving Tyrod Taylor as the veteran joined by Justin Hebert, who they drafted this past year. The expectation is that Taylor will start the year and remain the starter if the Chargers remain competitive.

Outside of the quarterback position, they have some talent at key positions with players like Austin Ekeler, Keenan Allen, Joey Bosa and Derwin James. They shouldn’t be overlooked but with the Chargers traveling across the country, and the Bills playing at home, gives them the edge here.

Prediction: Win (8-3)
