All four teams lost and all four defeats were dreadful in their own way. Kansas City, which started the season 3-0, is now 3-2. They still hold first place in the struggling division with Denver, Oakland and San Diego all at 2-4.
The Chiefs have to be kicking themselves. They had a 24-14 lead early in the fourth quarter in a 35-31 final-seconds loss at Houston. Had the Chiefs just made one more play, they’d be 4-1 and be in complete control of the division. What is wrong with the Chiefs?
San Diego is in much worse shape after losing 20-17 at St. Louis. The Chargers are now 0-4 on the road and still making way too many mistakes. With this said, now faces a much tougher schedule as they host New England and Tennessee the next two games before going to Houston. The Chargers have to figure it out soon.
Making things worse, Charger's star tight end Antonio Gates was wearing a protective boot on his injured ankle and it could be serious. That would be a huge blow to the Chargers’ explosive offense. How does this injury impact the rest of the offensive guys like Phillip Rivers?
Denver fell to the Jets after committing a pass-interference penalty with less than two minutes to play and the Raiders were handled by Bay Area rival 49ers, who were previously 0-5.
Who do you think will win the division? Does any team in this division deserve to make the playoffs this year?
Based on this week, it is hard for me to say so.
After reading these i am very excited because i dont like the cheifs and on a greater note the Rams won, my favorite team. I dont know if the Cheifs will win too manyt more games.
ReplyDeleteThe Chiefs will be fine. They are a young team, and are playing with great promise. If we would not have had that bogus past interference call we may have one the game. I believe the Chiefs will win the division
ReplyDeleteThe AFC West is obviously going to be a weak division this year. With that said, I think it is a good thing for a young team like the Chiefs. As long as we stay around five hundred, we will be in the hunt at the end of the season. It would be a nice change to actual have some games that matter at the end of the season.
