Odds to win the AFC West: Chiefs still on top
The AFC West was considered the class of the NFL entering the season. Now it's not so, because the Denver Broncos and the Oakland Raiders have failed to impress and Los Angeles Chargers have had injury problems.
The Chiefs are still the favorite to win the AFC West. The Chargers are in the fight, but the Broncos are struggling.
The Chiefs are the favourite at (-670) despite their 6-2 record. They have a good defence and a great offence led by Patrick Mahomes. The team has also banked divisional victories. Buffalo Bills are a team that looks like a juggernaut. The Chiefs could be in for a smooth ride to the division title.
The Chargers haven't won a division title since 2009. They are 5-3 and have a negative point differential. Their last five games have been successful, but they lost to Seattle Seahawks at home. Austin Ekeler has played well recently. The team needs to get Rashawn Slater, Joey Bosa and Mike Williams back healthy.
The Raiders lost to the Jaguars and are now 0-5 on the road. The Broncos are also struggling and their offence is not good enough to be considered a contender.
