SAN DIEGO (AP) – Brock Osweiler and the Denver Broncos felt right at home in San Diego from the minute they came out for pregame warmups and saw all the orange-clad fans.
Then they got a remarkably easy victory against the hapless San Diego Chargers.
Osweiler threw a 3-yard touchdown pass to Demaryius Thomas on the game’s opening drive and Danny Trevathan intercepted Philip Rivers and returned it 25 yards for a score to lead the Broncos to a 17-3 victory.
“Oh my gosh it was unbelievable how much orange,” said Osweiler, who was 16 of 26 for 166 yards as he moved to 3-0 since he took over for the injured Peyton Manning. “They have no idea how much that means to us.
“No one blinked with this being a road game.”
