    love it..everything went wrong for them last season..KC is only team in division with a chance, you can throw Oak and den from the equation. Rivers is head and shoulders the best QB in the division and SD holds the edge in most other positions on offense and defense

    Huge KC fan....but I also dont disagree. KC stole the division last year and the main reason was SD horrible special teams. Den and Oak will be no factor in the division so basically its a two horse race. GL with the pick

    KC has improved greatly over the past couple of years and has a lot of young talent. That said, SD is angry over last year and I don't see the special teams debacles from last season happening again. The ball bounced the wrong way for the Chargers all year last season, you can't expect that again. Adding Bob Sanders and Takeo Spikes are also huge veteran additions to the defense. Even if they don't contribute much on the field, they will add leadership and a veteran presence to the team that we have needed. The whole offense will be back except for sproles. Look for SD to have a big season barring an injury to Rivers.

    The payout last year for the Chargers to win the West was even lower. -400 or something like that. I put a $100 on all the other teams paying over +600 last season. Won about $350 on the Chiefs which was paying +750. Just food for thought. Chargers were bigger favorites last year, and saw what happened.

    I think it's a toss up between the Chiefs and the Charges to win the AFC West.

    yes but based on what happened last year the Chargers are much more motivated and maybe humbled...highly doubt KC wins this season

    The only other thing I can say about the Chargers is that I would also bet that Rivers doesn't throw for that many yards again...that was pretty insane.

    Chargers will win this division EASILY. They lost 3 games last season because of special teams gaffs, that won't happen this year.

    That is quite the gamble, Oakland always has it out for San Diego and you never know how the Chiefs will do. I wouldn't put much on it, San Diego always chokes.
