Let's just say the Chargers were the best losing record team at the end of these last few seasons you did not want to play if you were on the bubble to make the playoffs and we found out a time or two. With all teams staying relatively healthy in the AFC West this year, it will be us and SD fighting it out for first place with Oakland a close 2nd or 3rd and the Broncos bringing up the rear. Broncos defense will get gassed again this year because their o-line problems will continue(a la many 3 and outs along with QBs running for their lives). Donald Stephenson will start at LT and that won't last long  and this new 1st rd LT will be baptized by NFL D-line fire much like Fisher went through.
If SD stays healthy they are legit.  |
Wait that Oakland team that was in he drivers seat week 16 before Carr was hurt is all of a sudden a close 2nd? That was even after losing to KC twice. If Carr didn't break his leg it was very likely the Raiders would win the AFC West.
It's nice to see the AFC West very competitive and it's anyone's division this year. If anything it's the Broncos who will struggle not having a quality QB.
