Melvin Gordon Is a Lock as a Favorite

The Los Angeles Chargers and Melvin Gordon face the San Francisco 49ers as 10.5-point favorites (as the lines move, stay up to date with our heat map).

This is good news for Gordon owners as he excels when the Chargers are given an advantage of four or more points. In such instances, he gets an increase of 0.5 receptions and 2.6 carries per game.

So far this season, Gordon has gotten the ball -- catches plus carries -- 18.7 times per game. His price jumped to $8,700 on FanDuel, but in cash lineups, the safety of a positive game-script is worth paying up for.
