The Denver Broncos (3-2) welcome the LA Chargers (2-2) to Empower Field at Mile High for an AFC West showdown Sunday. Kickoff is set for 4:05 p.m. ET (CBS). Below, we look at Chargers vs. Broncos odds from BetMGM Sportsbook’s NFL odds before making our expert NFL picks and predictions later in the week.
The Chargers had their bye week in Week 6, but are riding a 2-game losing streak. They did win their 1st 2 games of the season, beating the Las Vegas Raiders by 12 points and the Carolina Panthers by 23. Los Angeles faced stiffer competition after those 2, losing by 10 to the Pittsburgh Steelers and by 7 to the Kansas City Chiefs.
The Broncos have been one of the surprise teams this season. After losing their 1st 2 games they have won 3 straight. Those games weren’t easy wins either, taking down the Tampa Bay Buccaneers by 19 points and the New York Jets by 1, both games on the road. Denver beat the Raiders 34-18 in its last game, closing as a 2.5-point favorite in that Week 5 battle.
The Chargers are'led by QB Justin Herbert, who has 578 passing yards and 5 TDs, and is a well-versed player in the divisional rivalry. The Broncos will have rookie QB Bo Nix leading the charge.
