The Broncos vs. Chargers live stream is here and it catches a Denver team that is in more of a mess so than at any point this season. Meanwhile, Los Angeles is looking to avenge a tough loss to their division rivals earlier this year and use this NFL live stream to help their postseason odds.

The Broncos (7-8) are hoping to be without their starting quarterback for the second straight week as Teddy Bridgewater remains in concussion protocol. [The Broncos] Broncos (7-8) expect to be without their starting quarterback for the second straight week as Teddy Bridgewater remains in the concussion protocol. Locke and Denver's offense should improve greatly from last week's game against the Raiders. The Broncos scored all 13 of their points in the second quarter on two long field goals by Brandon McManus and a 1-yard touchdown run by Javonte Williams.

The Chargers (8-7) may just be the team Denver now needs to face. Last week, the Chargers lost 41-29 to the lowly Texans, allowing 149 rushing yards to Rex Burkhead in the process. Run defense has been something L.A. has struggled with all season, allowing 140.3 yards per game, which is fourth most in the NFL. They now face a Denver backfield with Javonte Williams and Melvin Gordon III, who combined for just eight total rushing yards last week.

To make matters worse, Los Angeles can not only improve its chances of making the playoffs, but also end the Broncos' hopes of reaching the postseason with a win. The Chargers can also avenge their Week 12 loss to the Broncos. Denver scored 14 fourth-quarter points, including a 70-yard interception return for a touchdown by Patrick Sarten II, to beat the Chargers 28-13.

Overall, the Chargers had a bit of a strange year. After winning four of their first five games, things kind of seesawed for a while. Then they beat the Bengals and Giants in quick succession, winning two games for the first time in over a month. Now they have lost two in a row and appear to be back on the "struggle bus".

The Chargers are a strong 7.5-point favorite against the Broncos. Over/under is 45.5.

Inactives include:

Broncos QB Teddy Bridgewater, CB Ronald Darby, WR Rico Gafford, DT Justin Hamilton, OT Drew Himmelman, LB Kenny Young
