Chargers wide out Keenan Allen downplays Broncos win

After the Denver Broncos defeated the Los Angeles Chargers, wide out Keenan Allen was not shy in letting it known how he feels about Denver’s win.

Happy Victory Monday Broncos Country. The Denver Broncos got a solid win against a good team in the Los Angeles Chargers. It took a Brandon McManus field goal as time expired to get the job done, but the Denver Broncos was able to record their fourth win of the season.

With the win, the Denver Broncos are now only one game back for the final wild card spot, but would lose the tiebreaker to the teams ahead of them, including the Baltimore Ravens.

However, there is a player on the Los Angeles Chargers roster who is not giving the Denver Broncos the credit they deserve. Keenan Allen had a solid game, catching nine passes for 89 yards and a touchdown.

But it was his words after the game that drew the attention of the NFL. Talking to reporters after the game ended, this is what Allen had to say about the result of the game. And he rips apart the Broncos.

“No, I don’t think they played well at all. We dominated the game. Turnovers, we gave them some points, and that’s what happened. They suck.”

Ouch. That stung a little bit. I can understand players saying that about their own team. But saying that another team sucks to reporters after a loss says a lot about someone.

Not sure if it was frustration in his team or if that is how he truly feels. However, a lot will say that it was Allen being bitter about the loss. But in reality, it was the Chargers that allowed them to get back into the game.

The Broncos and Chargers will see each other again on December 30th. It will be interesting to see how the rematch goes and how important the game becomes.
