Denver Broncos vs San Diego Chargers week 6
Will we see Peyton Manning put together good solid drives that move the ball down the field? Or will he throw interceptions like he has been in some of his games earlier in the year?
I think if he can get a few receptions during his first drive and make the first down it would be a big boost to their confidence. And if you look at his stats the interceptions he has had this year, none of them from the last 3 games.
Will the Chargers defense be able to stop Manning and shut him down? Grab a drink the game is going to start.
