The best division in football bar none. The reigning champions lost Tyreek Hill & others. The chargers added Von Miller, the Broncos changed coach & added Russell Wilson & the Raiders changed coach & added daVante Adams & chandler Jones, it’s like the space race division!
1). Kansas City Chiefs - this will be the toughest test for years but they have Mahomes & Andy Reid which means the division goes through KC for me. The loss of Hill, Matthieu, Hitchens & Charvarius Ward will hurt this team. The addition of Valdez-Scantling may soften the blow a little but make no mistake this division is wide open & Kansas City’s recent domination is under serious threat but I think they may squeak a tight race.
2). Los Angeles Chargers - good draft, same staff, Williams signed his deal, Keenan Allen remains & Justin Herbert is MVP material. They also added Kalil Mack which should compliment Joey Bosa nicely. The O-Line is a good one & if Austin Eckler stays healthy they should have a balanced attack. The only question mark is on coach Brandon Staley especially after the time out debacle at the end of the regular season. Playoff contention for sure.
3). Las Vegas Raiders - great additions in daVante Adams (best WR in football) & Chandler Jones plus Josh Jacobs in a contract year will help. They have the least brutal schedule of all 4 teams in the division too but some questions remain on the roster & in particular on new coach Josh McDaniels who has it all to prove in the top job. Playoff contender especially with Carr reunification with Adams.
4). Denver Broncos - elite quarterback addition in Russell Wilson, new offensive head coach in Nathaniel Hackett & the return of Courtland Sutton from injury all help the offence. Addition of Randy Gregory & Patrick Surtain II help an already sound defence, however it’s a lot of changes to gel together in a really tough division so may take a year of growing pains for the Broncos. Still a playoff contender though, in fact the entire division could make the post season it’s that strong!
