Falcons vs Chargers Week 3 NFL Lines: Atlanta Looks to Stay Perfect in San Diego
The Atlanta Falcons travel to Qualcomm Stadium to face the San Diego Chargers in a pivotal Week 3 matchup, kicking off at 4:05 PM ET.
Atlanta showcased their defensive prowess in their previous game, forcing four turnovers against the Denver Broncos, including three Peyton Manning interceptions. However, their ground game needs improvement, averaging just 3.0 yards per carry with 67 yards on 28 attempts against Denver.
A notable concern for the Falcons is running back Michael Turner's recent DUI arrest following the Broncos game. Coach Mike Smith addressed the situation, stating it will be handled according to league protocols and the collective bargaining agreement.
Turner, a former Charger, praised his ex-team's chemistry, highlighting new additions like Dante Rosario, Jarret Johnson, and Le'Ron McClain.
The Chargers enter the game with momentum, starting 2-0 under head coach Norv Turner for the first time, with victories over Oakland and Tennessee.
Las Vegas oddsmakers have installed San Diego as 3-point favorites for this contest.
