Broncos, Raiders, Chargers. Better than we thought they were?
So this past Sunday, the AFC West went 3 out of 3 against the NFC North, a division populated by the Packers (7-2) and the Vikings (6-3), two playoff caliber teams.
Perhaps three, if we include the Lions (3-4-1) who are the outside looking in right now, but have proven statistically and on the field that they are a tough football team trending towards becoming a good one in the near future. But somehow the Chiefs, Raiders, and Chargers all defeated their respective NFC North opponents over the weekend. So the question must be asked: are our division rivals actually better than we thought they were? Why or why not? This is a hypothetical question, btw. A mental exercise. I'm not saying that I believe that the Chargers/Broncos/Raiders are playoff caliber teams. Just thought it might be an interesting debate topic. Last edited by Megatron96; 11-07-2019 at 03:37 PM.. |

Not really. A bad team and two mediocre teams. Unless you are a total dreg POS team(Bengals, Dolphins)you’re going to beat a decent team or two per year.

Raiders are underrated. As is Carr.

The Raiders Derek Carr just threw for a 71% completion percentage, has 13 TDs against 4 INTs. Josh Jacobs is arguably a top 10 RB, maybe top 5. And they defeated a Lions team that came within a 99-yard fumble return of defeating our Chiefs (maybe, but the Lions were a tough out for the Chiefs).
The Chargers thoroughly dominated a Packers team that the Chiefs couldn't beat, in spite of a solid performance by our defense and a very good performance by Matt Moore. Our Chiefs defeated the Vikings, led by October's Offensive Player of the Month, a legitimate top 5 offense and top 5 defense. And were considered the hottest team in the league going into Sunday. Even the Broncos starting a back-up QB and a team with more holes in it than a block of swiss cheese somehow managed to beat the Browns, a team that on paper should've dominated that game. Was that all just luck? |

Yes, Carr isn't a bad QB. He's just a less clutch version of Alex Smith. And a huge pussy.
