Broncos vs. Chargers series history: Denver holds commanding lead over L.A.
The Denver Broncos will look to snap a two-game losing streak when they face the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 6’s installment of Monday Night Football.
The Broncos have a 70-54-1 all-time record against the Chargers, dating back to their time in San Diego.
This will be Denver quarterback Russell Wilson’s first meeting against Los Angeles in the orange and blue. Unfortunately, Wilson owns an 0-2 record versus the Chargers during his career.
Last season, the Broncos were 1-1 against their AFC West rivals. Their last meeting was a decisive win for Los Angeles, a 34-13 loss for Denver at SoFi Stadium.
Former Broncos quarterback Drew Lock went 18-of-25 passing for 245 yards and a touchdown. Lock’s counterpart, Justin Herbert went 22-of-31 for 237 yards and two touchdowns in the beatdown. The straw that broke Denver’s back during the game came in the fourth quarter, when Chargers returner Andre Roberts returned kicker Brandon McManus’ kickoff 101 yards for a touchdown, effectively putting the game out of reach.
Can Broncos coach Nathaniel Hackett find a way to keep up with Los Angeles and keep Denver in the hunt for the AFC West? We’ll find out on Monday night.
