INGLEWOOD, Calif. — Inside the Broncos locker room, there were yellow towels strewn across the floor and red faces in front of cameras.
A proud team in need of results to match its mouth had a chance to paint itself in brilliant colors. Instead, they painted themselves into a corner.
Three weeks into the season, the Broncos trail the Chargers by three games in the AFC West.
There’s no excusing this mess. No spinning this into anything positive. The Broncos gagged again. They ruined September and all that talk of a fast start by getting walked off for the second straight week.
