Los Angeles Chargers 2025 NFL Betting Odds & Picks
Since losing the divisional round in 2009, the Los Angeles Chargers have made the playoffs only four times. However, one of those postseason berths was last year, which was the first for head coach Jim Harbaugh. In his successful debut season, Harbaugh produced 56 more points on offense and 97 fewer points defensively. The fundamental quality of football and physicality was significantly improved. Now comes the 2025 season, and higher expectations and greater scrutiny from the gambling public.
Still, Los Angeles was very quiet for a team with a lot of cap space, outside of signing Mekhi Becton late in free agency's opening window. Although the Najee Harris signing looked good at the time, it felt a bit redundant after the team drafted Omarion Hampton in the first round.

2025 Los Angeles Chargers Schedule, Results & Record
The Chargers outperformed the talent level on the roster last season to make it to the playoffs, where they promptly played to the talent level on the roster and quickly bowed out. Given Jim Harbaugh coaches them, gamblers put strong money on them maximizing their regular-season performance in just about any given season.
Given Harbaugh's general philosophy, it was surprising to see them invest in offensive skill players with their first two draft picks. They emerged from the draft still having question marks on the interior of the offensive and defensive lines. This is a team that got better, but given the amount of resources that were on hand, it probably could have done even more.

Founded in 1960 as charter members of the American Football League, the Los Angeles Chargers moved to San Diego in 1961. Barron Hilton, an heir to the famous hotel chain, was the original owner. He named the team the Chargers after his credit card company, which was aligned with his hotels and restaurants. The early Chargers were the power of the American Football League. Their marquee man was Hall of Fame receiver Lance “Bambi” Alworth. Head coach Sid Gilman was a pioneer in passing game development. The Chargers played in the first two AFL championship games, losing both. Finally, they won the 1963 AFL championship. After losing the AFL championship game in the next two years, the Chargers went into a long period of darkness.
But head coach Don Coryell and quarterback Dan Fouts led a franchise resurgence in the early 1980s. Following that was another long period of losing. The Chargers made their only Super Bowl appearance in the 1995 season, losing to the 49ers.
From 2004 through 2018, the Chargers made the playoffs seven times. For most of those years, the quarterback was Philip Rivers, who could never get the Chargers to the Super Bowl.
Finally, after years of futility in trying to get a new stadium built, the Chargers returned to LA from San Diego in 2017.

Betting Rules & Policies
Free Play Rules
- Free plays cannot be used on proposition bets.
- Free Plays do not earn any BetPoints™
- Bets made using Free Plays do not count towards completing any rollovers. (Free Plays are always subject to a rollover of their own. You must complete the required rollover prior to making a withdrawal).
- The maximum payout for any Free Play is $5,000.
- Free Plays that are left unused for 180 days will be removed from your account.
ROLLOVER
- Did you know that on all deposits made at BookMaker, there is a rollover requirement: an amount of betting action you must fulfill before you are eligible to make a withdrawal.
- Did you know that rollovers are calculated by multiplying the amount initially credited to your account a certain number of times? Yes! If you deposit without claiming any bonus, the rollover will always be 1x (one-time) your deposit amount. If you do claim a deposit bonus, the rollover will be higher and is based on the deposit plus bonus amount.
Wager disputes (claims)
If you disagree with any aspect of a wager you’ve placed, you are welcome to log an official dispute (commonly known as a “claim”). Claims must be reported no later than 15 (fifteen) calendar days following the settlement of the wager.
If following an initial review of the case there remains any doubt regarding the wager type, line, market, amount, or any other detail, the claim will be escalated to the BookMaker management team. All decisions made by them are final.
Wager Cash Out - How it works
With the Cash Out feature you can choose to eliminate a wager that's already been placed, and receive back either a portion, or your full stake amount.
Cash Out is selectively available on certain events, fixtures, and markets.
In order to see if a wager is eligible to be cashed out, simply navigate to your Bet Slip and check the 'My Open Bets' tab. If eligible, the Cash Out button will be displayed.
It’s also important to note that Cash Out is not contributing to any bonus or promotion including Bet Point accumulation and Rollover for releasing bonus cash.
