Exchange buyers: New York Jets at Los Angeles Chargers

Neither Kalshi nor Polymarket has a market on this game that we can match, so there is no exchange buyer data to show.

Polymarket US: prices only

Polymarket US lists moneyline, spread, total, team totals and alternate and period lines for this game. No trade split yet for these markets (none captured, or too few to show), so they show prices only.

📘 New to betting? Two-minute translation. A moneyline bet is picking who wins, nothing else. In this game, +108 means a $100 bet profits $108 if it wins. The spread is a head start: -7.5 must win by 8+, while +7.5 cashes by losing by 7 or fewer (or winning). The total is combined points by both teams, over or under the books' number. +EV means the price pays better than the market-implied fair odds (vig removed); consistently taking better prices raises your expected return over time.

A Winless Favorite at SoFi Stadium

The Los Angeles Chargers had not won a game as of November 11. They were 0-8, and the market still makes them the favorite. The New York Jets were 2-7 on that date, and you can bet them at plus money. That gap between the records and the price is what makes this one interesting. Chargers vs Jets predictions start with a simple question: why is the winless team favored?

The Matchup: Who Is Favored to Win Jets vs Chargers?

This is Week 11 of the 2026 regular season, Sunday, November 22 at 4:05 PM ET on Fox, at SoFi Stadium. As of November 11, the Jets were 2-7 and 3rd of 4 in the AFC East. The Chargers were 0-8 and 4th of 4 in the AFC West. Treat those records as a snapshot from that date. The Chargers are the favorite at -122, and the Jets are the underdog at +110. The market is pricing something other than the standings.

Players to Watch

Look at the quarterbacks first. They have played different numbers of games, so we compare them per game. Geno Smith has played all nine Jets games, averaging 230.9 passing yards, 1.3 touchdowns and 0.3 interceptions per game (2,078 yards, 12 touchdowns, 3 interceptions on the season). Justin Herbert has played all eight Chargers games, averaging 198.9 yards, 0.8 touchdowns and 1.4 interceptions per game (1,591 yards, 6 touchdowns, 11 interceptions). An interception is a pass caught by the defense. Herbert is throwing more interceptions per game than touchdowns. That is a hard way to win a first game.

The Numbers: What Is the Jets vs Chargers Spread?

Start with the moneyline, a bet on who wins outright. A minus sign marks the favorite and a plus sign marks the underdog. The best Chargers odds are -122 at Bally Bet, where a $100 bet profits $81.97 if they win. The best Jets odds are +110 at DraftKings, where a $100 bet profits $110.00.

The spread is a head start in points. Jets +1.5 at -108 at bet365 wins if the Jets win outright or lose by 1, and it loses on a 2-point loss. A $100 bet profits $92.59. Chargers -1.5 at -109 at Caesars wins only if Los Angeles wins by 2 or more, so a 1-point win loses. A $100 bet profits $91.74. The half point means there is no push (a tie that refunds your stake).

The total is 42.5 combined points. The Over is best at -110 at DraftKings and the Under at -107 at Bally Bet. Books did not agree at the open: five books posted the total anywhere from 42.5 (Rebet) to 43.5 (FanDuel). That is why we line shop, meaning we check every book and take the best price.

Where the Value Is

Every price carries the vig, the sportsbook's built-in cut. Remove it and the market reads about 53.5% Chargers, 46.5% Jets. The Jets at +110 need 47.6% to break even (the win rate where you neither make nor lose money). Expected value is your average result per bet if you placed it many times. Nothing on this board is positive. Jets +1.5 is minus $3.04, the Over minus $3.00, Chargers -1.5 minus $4.79 and the Under minus $4.84, all per $100 risked. The Jets moneyline is simply the smallest leak.

Injuries: Is Justin Herbert Playing?

As of the November 11 report, Herbert is listed Questionable, meaning his status is uncertain. DJ Uiagalelei is listed Active. Chargers listed Questionable also include Kendall Williamson, Brenen Thompson, Deane Leonard, Kayode Awosika, Isas Waxter and Justin Eboigbe. David Njoku and Denzel Perryman are on Injured Reserve, a list that sidelines a player for multiple games. For the Jets, Garrett Wilson, Trevin Wallace, Nahshon Wright and Joseph Ossai are Questionable, and VJ Payne is on Injured Reserve. Smith and Breece Hall are listed Active. Check the final report before Sunday's kickoff.

The Pick

Our Jets vs Chargers prediction lands on the Jets moneyline at +110 at DraftKings. This is a matchup lean, not a value bet. We like Smith's 0.3 interceptions per game over nine games against Herbert's 1.4 per game over eight, plus the uncertainty around Herbert. Keep the stake small and take +110 or better only.
