NFL Week 1 Same Game Parlays: Raiders vs. Chargers
(Odds courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook)
Las Vegas Raiders @ Los Angeles Chargers
- Leg 1: Raiders +14.5 (-315)
- Leg 2: David Njoku 3 + Receptions (-142)
- Leg 3: David Njoku 25+ Receiving Yards (-117)
Our next selection doesn't yield the highest return. However, there's something to be said for stacking singles on your parlays. Sure, the nine-leg parlay is impressive (most likely annoying) to your friends in a group chat. Beyond that, it's not a strategy that will consistently pay off. You also do not have to take a smaller parlay only once... If you feel confident enough, run the same play 10X's. The only right path to engage in sports betting is in regards to comfort, enjoyment and profit. There's no cool way to win or lose.
The Las Vegas defense performed at a very high level in their first game, with the team recording five sacks on the day. The Raiders forced two turnovers against Miami – one interception and one fumble. The Raiders run game was the catalyst for the offense, totaling 130 yards on the ground. Las Vegas kept it simple with run plays and screens to Austin Jeanty. The Raiders are not looking to throw deep passes, which means they are going to grind the clock as much as possible, while limiting possessions for the opposition. In that scenario, covering 15 points will be extremely difficult for the Chargers.
David Njoku was the only receiver other than Ladd McConkey to record at least three receptions or more in the first game for Los Angeles. McConkey will not be available on Sunday, which could result in the excess targets going to David Njoku. The tight end caught all five targets for 58 yards, with a long reception of 15 yards. He was easily the most reliable receiver on the field for Herbert. Without their top receiver on the field, David Njoku should see a large share of the targets in the passing game.

NFL Same Game Parlay Betting Strategy
NFL same game parlays let bettors combine several predictions from one matchup into a single ticket. While adding legs can produce a more appealing payout, it also reduces the margin for error. Successful construction starts with a strong opinion about the game and selections that tell a consistent story.
Create a Game Script First
Begin by considering how the matchup is most likely to develop. A team playing with a lead may run more frequently, while a trailing offense could produce additional pass attempts and receiving opportunities. Use that projected game script to guide every leg instead of choosing unrelated bets based solely on their individual odds.
Target Outcomes That Work Together
Look for selections that benefit from the same result. A quarterback passing-yardage over may pair naturally with a top receiver's yardage over, while a favorite to win can complement a rushing prop for its lead running back. Be cautious with legs that require opposing scenarios, such as betting on a comfortable victory while also expecting the winning team to throw aggressively throughout the second half.
Make Your Best Bet the Foundation
Start with the market in which you have the strongest conviction, then add only legs that reinforce that position. Do not include a selection simply because it significantly increases the payout. Each additional leg lowers the probability of winning, so a focused two- or three-leg parlay is often more defensible than a larger ticket built around weaker opinions.
