Week 5 of the 2019 NFL season features a divisional matchup, as the Denver Broncos hit the road to take on the Los Angeles Chargers.

As we enter Week 5 of the 2019 NFL season, the AFC West currently looks like it is the undefeated Kansas City Chiefs, and everybody else. The Chiefs have gotten off to a 4-0 start to the 2019 campaign, with a divisional win over the Oakland Raiders on their resume, and recently avoided a loss to the Detroit Lions this past weekend.

Overall, the Raiders and Los Angeles Chargers sit at 2-2 a piece, while the Denver Broncos are still in search of their first victory of the year. The Broncos not only have lost every game this season, but they have also lost one of the best players on their team, as Bradley Chubb is out for the rest of the year with a torn ACL.

When it comes to the division, many expect the Chiefs to run away with it, but the Chargers and Raiders are full entrenched in the Wild Card picture in the AFC as we enter the second quarter of the season. All four AFC West teams will take the field this weekend, with the Chargers and Broncos battling it out in Los Angeles.

Here is our Week 5 preview and predictions.
