Fourth Quarter
Our Mitchell Schwartz weighs in on Herbert’s Controversial Forward Pass
QBs shouldn’t be allowed to do that flip to the RB if you want to protect them on roughing calls the way the NFL does. Why wouldn’t a DL come in and try to blast Herbert the next time he’s trying to resist being sacked while wrapped up like that?

Broncos' Defense Hurting Before Monday Night
The Denver Broncos will be without multiple key defenders for Monday night against the L.A. Chargers. One of the heroes of Week 5's win over the Colts, safety Caden Sterns, is among the inactives due to injury, one week after bringing in two interceptions. Also inactive due to injury is inside linebacker Josey Jewell, and the team's offense is missing tight end Albert Okwuegbunam.
👀 our inactives for #DENvsLAC.

Allen Misses Another One for L.A.
The Chargers are missing Keenan Allen once again in Week 6, the fifth consecutive contest the team's top wide receiver will miss after a Week 1 injury. Also out for L.A. is the team's anchor in the middle of the offensive line, center Corey Linsley.
