Story summary

The Denver Broncos (2-2) face the struggling Los Angeles Chargers (0-4) on Sunday at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, aiming for their first win in the AFC West and to avoid a 0-5 start for the Chargers. The Broncos' offensive issues have seen them rank 27th in both scoring and total yards per game. Coach Sean Payton has taken back play-calling duties from Davis Webb due to poor performance. Meanwhile, the Chargers are dealing with major injuries up front, having used four rookie linemen protecting QB Justin Herbert in their last loss to Seattle. With both teams' offensive coordinators under pressure, oddsmakers favor the Broncos by 3.5 points despite the home-field disadvantage for Denver.
