Chargers Broncos AFC West Battle


AFC West Triple coming to a head in Denver tonight for Chargers, throwback Thursdays, records broken, horses with 509, keep a way and all to see who will grab first place in the AFC West, with a few memories looming and on a beautiful night in Denver, kickoff at 5:25PM PST.

Peyton took the record from Brett Farve on Sunday with 509 and then to 510, Phillip Rivers was the first NFL QB to go 5 straight games with a passer rating of 120 as well. 

Chargers come in with a rough loss at home vs. KC, and endure a triple of division games all in a span of 11 days, tonight the biggest one.  With Chargers coming in with everyone picking the Broncos, actually historically this team does well on these notes.

Last year they came in as underdogs as well, do you remember the Phillip Rivers to Keenan Allen hurdle TD!  That followed with an excited QB on set with NFL Networks crew sharing his excitement like a pop warner player, his true Alabama self and somehow still innocent and all the love for the game came out and shined bright, with bolo ties and snake skin boots.  The last time these two met was close as well, and an advertisement for Omaha Steaks as that was the word Peyton was stuck on, ending not favorably for the Chargers.

Keep Away, Just as the Broncos players did with Peyton and his 509 game ball, that’s what the Chargers need to do tonight.  Time of possession and sustain drives, productivity, the ingredients which they have won with.  Defense will need to limit receivers, disguise schemes as they play chess with Peyton on the line.  Freeney will be hopefully greeting his former teammate on the ground, while the Chargers line will need to keep Von Miller and Demarcus Ware at bay and away from Phillip.  Contain the run as well as former Aztec Ronnie Hillman as he is getting his groove with 2 TD’s last week vs. SF.  Along with continuing to run the ball themselves and of course #Rivers2Gates always has a great ring with results, how bout that tipped TD catch! 
Bolts continue to be ailing espescially with a short week and a must win division game but keep in mind secondary players will be the same as they were in the last TNF game and that ended with a win, Shaureece Wright and Brandon Marshall will mostly be the corners.

Injury update:  OUT: Flowers, Te’o, Matthews,  and Brown
Doubtful: Attochu
Questionable: Verrett, Williams

Broncos are pretty much running on all cylinders, with only Montee Bal and Omar Bolden out with Steven Johnson questionable

After the loss on Sunday, immediate panic for fans myself included, that the game would be coming at the worst possible time, however after sleeping on it, this may have been a blessing, plus everyone even dogs are picking the Denver. These are the games the  Chargers rise to and with that I’ll leave you with yet one more Bobby Rubio illustration.

I think they come out with a W and surprise this dynamic team in all faces at their home.
I know, I’m crazy, but they somehow match up well against Peyton.

Dynamite game wishes boys!
