It seemed like Denver would come into this divisional tilt with at least one win but they lost at home to Jacksonvillle….at the gun too.
The Chargers had a much easier time of it, flexing some muscle against Miami. They cannot afford to lose a game like this as they try and chase Kansas City.
Denver Broncos
Denver is not a good team but they were favoured last week at home against the Jaguars.

Through the first half they looked pretty good but a team that is supposedly built on defense couldn’t stop Jacksonville much in the second half.
The Broncos defense was crushed by Leonard Fournette – 225 yards. 81 came on oen play but even if you take that away Denver was gashed repeatedly on the ground. With Melvin Gordon back the Chargers might try the same thing.
Joe Flacco has looked OK at quarterback this season but that is as high as the praise goes. He has thrown interceptions in back to back to back games. This offense needs him to be more precise than that.
Denver sacked Gardner Minshew five times last week but it was not enough to shake the rookie who was steady and mistake free. They are not going to have much better luck against the savvy Phillip Rivers.
Denver is off to an 0-4 start. This team is not going to be epically bad but this does not look like a spot for their first win.
Los Angeles Chargers
The Los Angeles Chargers won at Miami. They did what was needed to get the win but I am not very bullish on this team after the first quarter of the season.

The biggest reason to be negative is that staggering injury report. It is hard enough to win in the NFL as it is let alone when you do not have your best.
Melvin Gordon is back with the team but did not see any action last week. The running game could definitely use a boost as they did not doo much against Miami, less than 3.5 yards per carry. If Gordon is in shape he will help them.
Rivers had a strong game but that was to be expected against a weak Miami team. Denver will get after him a lot more.
Speaking of getting aftrer the quarterback San Diego had 5 sacks last week. 2.5 came from DB Desmond King which has to have coordinators looking closely at the tape – he had no sacks a year ago.

4* Free NFL Betting Prediction: Los Angeles -6.5
I think the Broncos will have some success limiting the Chargers on offense in this one. The challenge will be scoring enough to get a win. Their offense stalled out last week and that was at home.
NFL Free Week 5 Score Prediction: Los Angeles 28 – Denver 16
This is a great teaser opportunity as long as the number stays where it is. I can’t see there being a lot of support for the Broncos after last week so it might get to -7. San Diego has injuries on defense but they still have enough up front to limit Denver.
That is the key to the game.
