Week 16 DraftKings & FanDuel Showdown Plays: Broncos vs. Chargers Thursday Night NFL DFS

Welcome to the showdown breakdown for Thursday Night Football, a crucial divisional matchup between the 8-6 Chargers hosting the upstart 9-5 Denver Broncos in a game with massive playoff implications. The short week is especially tough for Los Angeles, as they are now only reeling a bit, having lost three of four, they’re also nursing a ton of injuries all over the field, including TE Will Dissly (who looks like he’ll miss yet another week). Meanwhile, Denver looks to be at nearly full strength. This should be a fascinating test for rookie quarterback Bo Nix in a playoff-like atmosphere. The extremely low 42-point over/under has some playoff-esque vibes as well. Let’s break this one down from a single-game DFS perspective.
