The Denver broncos and Los Angeles chargers faced off in a week 1 division rivalry if you didn’t know that where have you been?? The game was an obvious banger with the broncos coming out on top in an offensive master class with a 45-40 win. Despite the score being so close the Broncos looked really good in their season opener. Bo nix who coach Mari expects to take that leap this year balled out with the questionable weapons he has,dropping a staggering 6 touchdown dots on a 76 completion% Troy Franklin went out there and proved why he won the wr1 role in training camp with only one 3 targets he caught 3 passes for 131 yards and 2 whole tds that is not easy to complete folks that is very impressive. This was a highly anticipated game since the last season with all the buzz being around how Great the AFC west is and how better they are then last year with new and proven head coach coach Mari, coach Isiah and the raiders just winning the Super Bowl, coach lion who just lost in a over time thriller in Vegas against the raiders in the conference championship, and the new kid on the block the chargers who has a grudge and wants to prove he’s the best out of this crazy division.I feel like every single one of their enter division games are going to be tough gritty nasty gotw’s who’s going to finish last in the division?Only god knows
