This is the fourth preseason game for a retooled Denver offense that hasn't been very good, averaging 14.3 points per game. The QB trio of Joe Flacco, Kevin Hogan and Drew Lock have combined for one TD, two picks, and 11 sacks. And Lock is dealing with a sprained thumb. At least the Denver defense is far ahead of the offense, allowing 18.6 ppg. Los Angeles won the NFC last season and has nothing to prove on offense this August. It shows, scoring a total of 13 points in two losses. After QB Jared Goff, the QB rotation is unimpressive with Sean Mannion, John Wolford, Blake Bortles and Brandon Allen - three of them learning a new playbook. The defense has great talent and depth, allowing 14 points apiece to the Raiders and Cowboys. They picked off two Oakland passes and have held their two opponents to 9-of-27 on third down. This one stays UNDER.
