Chargers fire Brandon Staley after historic loss to Raiders, plus NFL Week 15 bold predictions and best bets

Welcome to the Friday edition of the Pick Six newsletter!

The NFL weekend is off to a wild start, thanks to the Los Angeles Chargers. After getting hammered 63-21 by the Raiders last night, the team responded by firing Brandon Staley. In a move that was announced less than 12 hours after the conclusion of the game, not only did the Chargers make the decision to dump Staley, but they also fired general manager Tom Telesco, who had been with the team since 2013. 

If you want more coverage of the two firings, be sure to read our full story here. 

As for the rest of the newsletter, we’ll be grading both teams from last night’s game and taking a look at nine crazy stats from the Raiders’ win, plus we’ll be making some picks and bold predictions for Week 15. Also, just as a friendly reminder, don’t forget that there’s football on tomorrow. The NFL has a tripleheader scheduled and that will be kicking off at 1 p.m. ET with Vikings at Bengals (All three games will be on NFL Network).
