Or will Denver hopefully have more injuries playing on a short week for Thursday?
No it’s week 16. They play that next Sunday against the Bengals. We actually get a nice 11 day break before our last game in Denver since we play on X mas day [Reply]
If I looked at it right… shorter week for Denver after hosting Colts on Sunday, then travel to LAC. Then a longer break before traveling to CIN. [Reply]

Damn...the Donks have to travel on Wednesday.
So 2 days practice to prepare for the team that had them down 23-0 into the 4th quarter earlier this season.

Anything that inconveniences Donko fans is OK by me...they deserve it....for eternity.
Nobody flies in for Chargers games...so they'll be alright. [Reply]

They wanted this.
Chargers dominated them in the first meeting...it was 23-0 in the 4th. Sounds like they knew they would likely lose no matter what day they played.. Get extra rest for a team they have a chance against. [Reply]

Yeah, I would be pissed, but I’m sure tickets have this in their Ts and Cs and other guidelines. Definitely sucks if you had a weekend planned out. [Reply]

You act like teams play the same way the second time around in a season. [Reply]
