AFC West matchup between two sides with postseason aspirations. The .500 Broncos have lost five of their last seven outings, and the Chargers haven’t fared too much better, losing three of their last five.
The Chargers have struggled against the run all year, ranking dead-last in the NFL for rushing yards allowed per game, and have given up thirteen TDs to the RB position already this season. Former Charger Melvin Gordon has been in a rich vein of form recently with five TDs in the last four games, and you know he’ll be desperate to add to that total against his former employers.
Spread: Chargers -3
Total: 47.0
Game Prediction: Chargers 27-21 Broncos
Best Bet: Melvin Gordon to score a TD @ 8/5 with Bet365. [0.5]
