San Diego Chargers at Denver Broncos Betting Odds

Emotions could be running high on Sunday afternoon when AFC West rivals meet in Denver as the Broncos host the Chargers in NFL odds at 4:15 pm EST on CBS. The last time they played, Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers was seen yelling at Denver quarterback Jay Cutler. You can bet none of the Broncos players have forgotten what happened last season. Rivers sure doesn’t want to talk about it. "I'm not going to get into it through you guys, through the media, all week long," said Rivers, "I'm just not going to do it. I'm going to talk football about Denver and see what kind of team they are as I get to prepare for them and go play the game. Whatever happened to me is gone.”

Denver lost both games in NFL betting odds to San Diego last season but the Broncos look like a much better team this year. They also will not have to deal with San Diego linebacker Shawne Merriman who is out for the year. Merriman didn’t do much last week in the loss to Carolina and felt surgery was the best option for his injured knee. Denver routed Oakland last week in betting odds, winning 41-14 and looked very impressive with quarterback Jay Cutler throwing for 299 yards and two touchdowns. Receiver Eddie Royal had a great game, catching nine balls for 146 yards and a TD. Brandon Marshall was out last week due to suspension but he returns this week.

"This just opens up a lot of possibilities for us," Cutler said. "We anticipated B-Marsh getting a lot of double coverage up top, and now you can't, because Eddie is on the other side. I've had a good feel for Eddie, and I've been throwing it his way more and more." The Chargers have won the last two meetings in NFL betting odds between the two teams in Denver. The Broncos are a 1 point favorite in NFL odds with a total of 45.5.
