• The Los Angeles Chargers team total of 23.5 points has a (-110) betting line on the UNDER.
• The Chargers are (-120) to get the first penalty of the game.

LOS ANGELES – The Kansas City Chiefs and Los Angeles Chargers are the TNF game for Week 15 and have multiple prop betting odds that can be taken advantage of.

First Quarter Total: O/U 10.0 Points

The Chiefs and Chargers are known for having high-powered offenses and that can be said specifically for the start of games. The Chiefs are the fourth-highest scoring first-quarter team with 6.8 points on average, but legal online betting sites have the total set at an achievable number.

The Chargers pitch in 5.2 points per first quarter which ranks just outside the top 10 in the league, but the defensive numbers show promise in favor of the OVER as well.

Neither team is elite defensively in the opening frame as Kansas City ranks in the bottom half of the league with 4.0 points allowed and Los Angeles isn’t much better with their 3.9 points allowed average.

Los Angeles Chargers Team Total: O/U 23.5 Points

One of the biggest stories entering the game is going to be just how well the Chiefs defense has been playing. Kansas City is allowing just 10.83 points per game over the last six weeks but the Chargers team total is set well above that.

Kansas City has allowed just one of their last eight opponents to reach this number, but Los Angeles has done so in three of their last four and in five of their last seven games overall.

Kansas City’s defense has proven their strong play has not been a fluke and they should continue to give their opposition difficulties on the short week.

First Team To Be Penalized

A bet that NFL betting sites offer that is often overlooked is which team will be the first to get penalized. In most cases, fans hate to see the yellow flag on the field but this gives a reason to cheer for it.

The Chargers are the fifth-most penalized team in the NFL with 93 total accepted penalties on the season while the Chiefs have drawn the fifth-most penalties this season with 95 against.

The odds show an equal chance for either team, but the numbers show that one is much more likely than the other.
