Kickoff is right around the corner between the 3-2 Chargers and the 2-3 Broncos.
Denver’s defense just got a bump with the return of All-Pro safety Justin Simmons this week while the Chargers offensive line just lost All-Pro center Corey Linsley for tonight’s game due to an undisclosed illness. In a game where it felt like the Chargers could potentially run away from the Broncos’ inept offense, things just evened out quite a bit.
It’ll be up to the Chargers’ role players to step up and help out the healthy stars that remain. If the old Russell Wilson doesn’t show up out of the blue, this game should be a lot less stressful than it seems on the face.
