Los Angeles Chargers, Broncos and Sunday Night Football

The Denver Broncos take on the Los Angeles Chargers on Jan. 4 with a chance to secure the top seed in the AFC. Here is how to catch them in action.
Nix has rushed less than he did as a rookie, but the playmaking ability with his legs could be a wild card for the Broncos in the playoffs.
The turnaround is worth digging into because the Broncos look like entirely different units when you turn on the tape, and the stats and analytics back it up, with one exception: the run game. The Broncos lost J.K. Dobbins in that game against the Raiders, and he was their most consistent and reliable running back.
The Denver Broncos won't clinch the No. 1 seed in the AFC playoffs before Week 18. The Broncos could have clinched the top seed in the conference on Sunday if the New England Patriots (12-3) lost and the Buffalo Bills (11-4) and Jacksonville Jaguars (11-4) both tied or lost their games.
Broncos legend John Elway chose an interesting time to reopen one of the franchises biggest Josh Allen wounds this week.
The NFC West and the top overall seed in the conference is on the line Saturday at Levi’s Stadium when the San Francisco 49ers (12-4) host the Seattle Seahawks (13-3). Sam Darnold and the Seahawks have won six in a row to take a one game lead into the final game of the regular season.
