Broncos vs Chargers Spread

When early lines for Broncos/Chargers were released this offseason, Denver was listed as 4-point underdogs. Since then, the spread has dropped by 1.5 to a 2.5-point spread on most sportsbooks. The Broncos have been one of the biggest surprises this season which has contributed to the spread dropping.

Broncos vs Chargers Moneyline

Being that the Chargers are favored on the spread, they are moneyline favorites here as well. We can convert the moneyline odds for Chargers vs Broncos to an implied probability for each team to win, which comes out to a 60.8% chance for the Chargers (-155) and a 43.5% chance for Denver (+130).

Broncos vs Chargers Over/Under

The total for the Week 16 matchup between Denver and Los Angeles has seen a small change from the offseason, going from 43 down to 42. This means over bettors would need at least 43 combined points while under bettors need 41 or fewer points. If you want to bet the under, doing so at FanDuel would be your best option as the total is currently listed at 42.5 there.
