Good-on-good matchups make for must-see TV in the NFL. Good-on-bad matchups often determine the outcome of games. If the Broncos are to run their winning streak to four games Sunday by beating the Los Angeles Chargers, they’re likely going to have to notch a win or two in an area where they’ll be big underdogs: The offensive red zone. Denver through five weeks is tied for 27th in the NFL with a 43.8% red zone touchdown rate, though they’ve been on a bit of an upswing recently.

The Broncos depth at wide receiver will be tested in the coming weeks. Veteran wide receiver Josh Reynolds is expected to miss some time after undergoing a minor finger surgery, a source told The Denver Post. Reynolds will miss Sunday’s game against the Chargers, and potentially more. Head coach Sean Payton did not comment on Reynolds’ procedure. He appeared to have sustained the injury while falling to the ground following his touchdown catch in the fourth quarter of Week 5’s win over the Raiders. Reynolds has been absent from practice this week and was not seen on the side field with other injured players.
