Oh boy, here we go again with the Denver Broncos in prime time. They will make the trip to sunny Los Angeles to face Justin Herbert and the Chargers. I personally am sick and tired of watching the terrible Broncos offense in prime time but here we are again. Let me give you my favorite plays for the game.
Denver Broncos +4.5 -115 (2 Units)
I know I just stated above that I am tired of seeing the Denver Broncos in primetime and that their offense is horrible. This to me is a pure number play with the Broncos a 4.5 pt dog. The Chargers are fighting the injury bug already early in the season. They will be without stud tackle (out for the season) Rashawn Slater which has left a huge void at LT. To make matters worse, they will be without Captain Center Corey Linsley. This is even worse for the offense considering they will be facing one of the best defenses in the league. The chargers will also be again without best wide receiver Keenan Allen which takes another offense threat away. I expect the crowd to be pro Broncos which will help negate the home field advantage. I expect the Broncos to be able to run the ball and set up the play action pass to score enough to get inside of this number. I think the chargers win this one late with a FG to take this 26-24. Take the Broncos.
Melvin Gordon III Ov 53.5 Rushing Yards +120 (1 Unit)
The Chargers bolster the dead last rush defense in the NFL giving up almost 6 yards per rush. The broncos made a concerted effort last week to try and get the ground game going. MG has been given another chance after all of the fumble issues early in the year and will look to take advantage of it. I think he will take the opportunity against the team that drafted him and get over this number. Give me the Over.
