Main caution

Points to Broncos

Los Angeles cannot protect its quarterback. The Chargers allowed the second-highest pressure rate per dropback in the league through four games and have lost both starting tackles, leaving a line that could start four rookies.
The Chargers had allowed the NFL's second-highest pressure rate per dropback through four games, at 46.9%.
The Chargers give the ball away at a league-worst rate, and Herbert has been intercepted in every game this season. Denver's defense has been converting those opportunities into short fields.
The Chargers had committed 10 turnovers through four games, tied for the most in the NFL.
Denver's defense creates takeaways and its offense has been far more productive after halftime, while the Chargers have started games well but still sit winless and near the bottom of the league in scoring.
Denver's defense had four interceptions through four games, tied for fifth in the NFL.

Points to Chargers

Denver plays without both starting cornerbacks for the first time since 2023, and its defensive coordinator has said the defense cannot be called the same way without them.
Pat Surtain II and Riley Moss will both be unavailable for Denver in the same week for the first time since Moss was drafted in 2023.
Denver's offense has been among the league's least productive, ranking near the bottom in total offense and failing to score on any opening drive. That limits how far ahead Denver can get.
Denver entered Week 5 ranked 27th in total offense through four games.
