Last week: 8

Record: 3-2

Once again, the Chargers fell flat in a non-conference game. Norv Turner is now 8-14 ATS against non-conference opponents as Head Coach of the Chargers, 4-9 ATS before a divisional contest. This week is a huge early season test for them as they host the Broncos. I think at the end of the day, Chargers/Broncos is going to be the tightest divisional race, so these Head-to-Head matchups are huge.
