The last time they played, Denver’s Eddie Royal had a 93-yard kickoff return for a touchdown and a 71-yard punt return for a score. Broncos quarterback Kyle Orton also threw for a pair of TDs while Philip Rivers passed for 274 yards and a TD for the Chargers. LaDainian Tomlinson ran 18 times for 70 yards, which is his second-highest total this season. If the Bolts can keep Royal from breaking loose again, they’ll have a shot in this key AFC West matchup.
