the chargers have won their last 3 games by at least 20 points each, looking dominant.
the lions have won their last 2, but both were squeakers that came down to the last possession.
detroit's defense has been awful the last 6 games, giving up an average of 31 pts/game. on the flip side the chargers defense keeps getting better, holding the last 4 opponents to 16, 14, 10, and 14.
so this is one of those matchups where one team looks tired heading into a possible playoff spot while the other team looks awesome.
