Previewing the Week 16 game between the Broncos and Chargers.

This week starts a two game-series with divisional opponents to end the Denver Broncos‘ season, and this week’s matchup features the Los Angeles Chargers, who, like the Broncos, are holding a 5-9 record on the season, and looking to overtake the Broncos for third place rights in the AFC West.

Meanwhile, the Broncos are looking to maintain that position, and hope to finish in third place at least in the division in 2020, and although they have already been eliminated from playoff contention, it would be a trend in the right direction for the Denver Broncos to finish the season with a couple of wins, even if they will still finish below .500. After a disappointing and injury-ridden season, finishing the season with a couple of in-division victories would be ending on a positive note.

Let’s preview the game.
