Meanwhile, the Chargers barely got by the Denver Broncos in overtime by a score of 19-16 in Week 6. LA struggled to finish off long drives drives and its only touchdown of the game was scored by running back Austin Ekeler. A 39-yard field goal made by kicker Dustin Hopkins was the difference.

Seahawks vs Chargers Prediction & Pick

This is one of only a few matchups in Week 7 between two teams with a record of .500 or better. The Seahawks continue to exceed expectations with quarterback Geno Smith leading the way. The ninth-year pro is completing a league-best 73.4% of his pass attempts and has thrown 9 touchdowns.

He runs into a nightmare matchup on Sunday, though. The Chargers have posted the 11th-best pass defense DVOA rating in the NFL and are allowing only 9.9 yards per completion (T-No. 10 in NFL). Look for Justin Herbert to outperform Smith here and lead his squad to another win at SoFi Stadium.

Final Score Prediction: Seahawks: 24 | Chargers: 31
