The Denver Broncos fell from the ranks of the unbeaten last Sunday in a 23-16 loss to Atlanta as 3.5-point home favorites following four=straight wins, but BetAnySports has listed them as three-point road favorites to get back to their winning ways this Thursday night against the struggling 1-4 San Diego Chargers in an AFC West tilt at Qualcomm Stadium. The betting line for the total has been set at 45 and kickoff is set for 8:25 p.m. (ET) on CBS.
The Broncos' offense could never really get in gear last Sunday against the Falcons with rookie quarterback Paxton Lynch under center, but it does look like Trevor Siemian should be able to return to the lineup on Thursday night after missing last week's game with a shoulder injury. The real key to getting a win on the road against this division rival will still hinge on Denver's defense shutting down Philip Rivers and a Chargers' offense that is ranked second in the NFL in scoring with an average of 30.4 points a game. San Diego's biggest issue this season has been late-game collapses behind a defense that is ranked 28th in points allowed (28.4).
