Week 6 NFL picks for Chargers vs. Broncos
Before tuning into Sunday's Broncos vs. Chargers game, you need to see the NFL picks from SportsLine's advanced computer model. The model, which simulates every NFL game 10,000 times, is up well over $7,000 for $100 players on top-rated NFL picks since its inception. The model enters Week 6 of the 2024 NFL season on an incredible 10-2 hot streak on top-rated NFL picks this year. Longer term, it is on a 191-131 roll on top-rated NFL picks that dates back to the 2017 season and a 45-23 roll on top-rated NFL picks since Week 7 of 2022.
For Broncos vs. Chargers, the model is backing Denver to cover the spread. Nix is looking more comfortable in the pocket while Javonte Williams and Courtland Sutton have helped him pick up the offense. The Chargers have the fifth-ranked defense in the league, but Denver should have enough tools to cover at home for a second straight week.
The Chargers have had extra rest because of the bye week, but there are still questions about how healthy Herbert will be after playing through different injuries to start the season. Jim Harbaugh will likely lean heavily on J.K. Dobbins to get the ball downfield. The Chargers also haven't won a game at Mile High since 2018, which could contribute to the Broncos covering as underdogs in well over 50% of simulations. You may be able to stream the game here.
