First Place Broncos
The Broncos have been really good with their three losses coming at home to the Colts, on the road at the Steelers, and at home to the Browns. In their three losses, they lost by an average of 4 points per game. Baltimore is scoring 27.6 points per game, which is 4th in the NFL, and allowing 16.1 points per game, second in the league.
The run game has been the best in the league with more than 155 yards per game. Gus Edwards leads a crew of guys in the rushing attack for Baltimore. Quarterback Lamar Jackson is putting his running shoes on early and often as well. Jackson also has 2,441 yards passing and 12 touchdowns.
Zay Flowers has been his go to guy in the passing game. Especially now with the loss of Mark Andrews, who could potentially return before the season is out. Flowers has caught 53 passes for 588 yards on the season.
Strong Defense in Baltimore
The defense for the Denver Broncos has forced five fumbles and picked off 10 passes. Kyle Hamilton has an interception returned for a touchdown for the only score of the season. Roquan Smith leads the Broncos in tackles with 118 on the season. Justin Madubuike leads the team with 9.5 sacks, while the Broncos have 44 on the season.
What’s next for Baltimore?
The Broncos are at home against the Rams on December 10th, and then will play back to back road games in Jacksonville and San Francisco, before finishing the season back at home against the Miami Dolphins and Pittsburgh Steelers.
2023 Los Angeles Chargers
The 2023 Los Angeles Chargers on paper look like they should be winning games. Instead, here they are, on the brink of elimination if they do not turn things around quickly. Los Angeles is ninth in the league in passing yards with just shy of 250 per game. The rushing attack has not been great, but its acceptable at more than 105 yards per game. The Chargers are scoring 25.9 points per game.
Quarterback Justin Herbert is 237 of 358 passing for 2,609 yards and 19 touchdowns, with just 5 interceptions on the season. His top target, Keenan Allen has gone over 1,000 yards on the season, and leads with 7 touchdowns. Next is Donald Parham Jr with four, while Gerald Everett, has two.
Austin Ekeler leads the rushing attack for the Chargers. He has ran the football 102 times this season, in 7 games. He’s just shy of 400 yards, and has scored four touchdowns. Ekeler also has caught 24 passes this season, and has a touchdown. Joshua Kelley has taken over in games Ekeler has missed and has 352 yards and two touchdowns on the season.
Defensive Struggles for the Chargers
Los Angeles is allowing 23.8 points per game, which ranks in the bottom third of all of the National Football League . The top defensive players for the Chargers this season have been Kenneth Murray, who leads the team with 75 tackles, along with Khalil Mack and Joey Bosa. Mack leads the team with 11 sacks, while Bosa sits at 6.4. The Chargers do not have a defensive touchdown this season. They have six interceptions, and have forced nine fumbles, but none of them for scores yet this season.
Finishing 2023 for the Chargers
The Chargers will go on the road next week and take on the New England Patriots. Following that, the Chargers play back to back divisional games; at home against the Broncos and at the Raiders. The final three games will feature a home game against the Bills, a trip to Denver, and a home game against the Chiefs.
Chargers Season on the Brink
The Los Angeles Chargers are just a mess. They should be much better than 4-6 on the season, and frankly should be pushing the Chiefs at the top of the division. There are obvious concerns about what is going on with the Chargers around Los Angeles. Look for this to be one of those final straw type games. Lamar Jackson and the Broncos offense clicks early, and clicks often. The Broncos score a bunch of points early, and do not look back. The final bet for this game is the Denver Broncos -3.5 over the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday Night Football. This will be a crushing blow for the Los Angeles Chargers, who seemingly again will have high expectations, and miss

For all of Denver’s issues this season, and there have been many, the Broncos remain in the hunt to win the AFC West. After Saturday’s result where the Buffalo Bills beat the Kansas City Chiefs, the Broncos know a victory on Monday night nets them a tie with the Chiefs and Chargers in first place.

The team is flying high after beating the Houston Texans and Cleveland Browns in their last two games. Also, Denver can force a three-way tie atop the division with a victory.

Denver Broncos at Los Angeles Chargers Final Betting Prediction
One team has a significant edge over the other. The Chargers are playing like a team destined for the playoffs. The Broncos are playing like one of the worst teams in the NFL.
That doesn’t mean Denver can’t turn it round. The team has enough talent to do so and the defense remains one of the better units in the AFC.
But the Broncos’ offense is a disaster. Starting left tackle Garrett Boles and starting running back Javonte Williams are out for the season. Russell Wilson is suffering from a torn lat muscle.
The problem Denver will have in this is keeping up with a Chargers’ offense that ranks second in passing yards and eighth in points per game. Not only that, but the trends point to a Chargers win and cover.
Nothing has changed on since Sunday. The Bolts remain the pick to cover in NFL Week 6’s Monday Night matchup.
