Why the Broncos Losing to the Redskins is Even More Important

Let's play the what if game. What if the Chargers beat the Broncos on Sunday? Well, then they are in sole possession of first place and, as the saying goes, "Control Their Own Destiny." That means they would win the division if they won all their remaining games and the Broncos won all their remaining games. However, as much as I love the Chargers, I'm not sure I see them finishing the season on an 11 game winning streak. So, what else could happen?

Chargers Roll with Scott Mruczkowski

My favorite Chargers Roll to date. No question about it. Mooch is stellar, and there's not an ounce of BS in his answers.

Here was how I started the preview for the last Broncos/Chargers matchup.

So, the bye week sucked, huh?  Back to business in a big way this week with the Week 6 AFC West Championship Super Bowl Extravaganza (W6AFCWCSBE for short).

The ligaments in Kyle Orton's left ankle are torn. He certainly isn't.

Orton adamantly wants to start Sunday against San Diego and help the Denver Broncos snap out of a monthlong funk that has wiped out their 3½-game cushion over the Chargers in the AFC West.

Makes you wonder, who would the Chargers prefer to go up against? The healthy second-stringer, or the hobbled first-stringer?
