The Chargers' offensive coordinator Greg Roman has indicated that both Gus Edwards and J.K. Dobbins will see significant playing time. However, he emphasized the importance of riding the hot hand, suggesting that whichever running back performs better during the game will receive more carries. With the Chargers shifting to a more run-focused offense, this could lead to a productive day for the RB who capitalizes on their opportunities, especially against the Raiders.
