Week 16 of the 2024 NFL season begins with an AFC West matchup featuring the Denver Broncos and Los Angeles Chargers. We predict the winner.
The AFC playoff picture takes center stage for Week 16’s Thursday Night Football kickoff. Two AFC West teams, the Denver Broncos and Los Angeles Chargers, faceoff in a battle for wildcard seeding. A win would lock the Broncos into the postseason, while a win and losses by the Indianapolis Colts and Miami Dolphins would lock up a playoff berth for the Chargers. There is a lot on the line for tonight’s game.
Our contributors here on The Phinsider return to predict how we think this game will playout. As we do for every game throughout the season, we pick the straight-up winner for tonight’s game.
