Time to break down the Broncos, Chargers game. Might be the shortest column I have ever written. You want stats? Go to San Diego’s writers, they are great at stats.

We all love a good storyline. We wanted to see Peyton Manning face Andrew Luck at Peyton’s place this Sunday. We wanted to see Broncos vs. Colts. It would have gotten everyone talking, and the media would bombard us about this matchup to ad nauseam, especially ESPN. Read More
