Thursday Night Football will see an all AFC West match up tonight between the table-topping Denver Broncos and the second-placed San Diego Chargers. Both of these teams have been hugely impressive this season, and this match up promises to be one of top quality between two of the league's best sides so far this year.
Thursday Night Football will start at 8.25 p.m. EST, and tonight takes place from Sports Authority Field at Mile High in Denver, Colorado. The game will be broadcast as usual on the CBS and NFL networks, but can also be watched online through live stream - free for subscribers - via the link provided below.
The Denver Broncos will be favorites to claim the win today. They generally are the favorites against most teams they come up against these days, but with home field advantage today they should be able to navigate their way to a sixth win of the season.
However, the Chargers will not go quietly, and they will come into today's clash in confident mood after an excellent opening 7 weeks of the season so far.
The Chargers are 5-2 coming into Week 8, and if they can win today they will move to 6-2, while dropping the Broncos to 5-2.
The quarterback match up tonight will be immense, with Peyton Manning once again electrifying the NFL with 19 touchdowns through the Broncos' first six games. However, Philip Rivers is also having an amazing season and he has thrown 17 touchdown passes, albeit in one game more than Manning (the Broncos have had a bye week).
Manning is 149 of 217 attempts for 1,848 yards and 19 touchdowns, where as Rivers is 155 of 230 attempts for 1,961 yards and 17 touchdowns.
