The Los Angeles Chargers may rely on the pass game less in this week's contest (and call more carries) because they be starting backup quarterback Easton Stick.This week's line indicates an extreme throwing game script for the Chargers, who are huge -12.5-point underdogs.The model projects the Los Angeles Chargers to be the 3rd-least run-centric team on the slate this week with a 37.6% run rate, accounting for their underlying tendencies and matchup dynamics.The passing offenses of both teams (in terms of both volume and effectiveness) figure to benefit from the calm weather conditions (1-mph wind) being projected in this game, while run volume may slide.While Joshua Kelley has earned 31.4% of his team's carries in games he has played this year, the leading projections forecast him to be a much smaller part of Los Angeles's ground game this week at 11.7%.
