The Chargers will be forced to start backup QB Easton Stick in this week's game, which typically means fewer pass attempts and more rush attempts.At a -3-point disadvantage, the Chargers are underdogs this week, suggesting more of a focus on moving the ball through the air than their standard game plan.Our trusted projections expect the Chargers to be the 8th-least run-focused offense on the slate this week with a 39.0% run rate, accounting for their underlying propensities and matchup dynamics.This game will be played in a dome—meaning no wind, increased pass volume, increased touchdown potential, and better passing efficiency.While Joshua Kelley has garnered 31.9% of his team's rushing play calls in games he has played this year, the leading projections forecast him to be much less involved in Los Angeles's run game in this week's contest at 9.7%.
