The AFC West has a chance to be a strong division in 2017. At RaiderSnakepit.com, we like to keep our subscribers up to speed on the enemy. So, let’s rank the four offenses (this could be a potent division) as I see it heading into the season. Kansas City: I can hear you all now.
Ranking AFC West offenses
Bill,
I agree with your rankings above. Lots of unknowns on the Raiders, Chiefs and Broncos. Chiefs and Broncos have new QBs. Raiders have a new coaching staff and changes, and team regressed in 2017. Chargers have the most stability from an overall roster and coaching staff.
The national media is in love with the Chargers from their late season surge. In addition, in the last several weeks, many are claiming that Mahomes is the next Brett Favre. Okay now….everyone hold on to their britches. It’s way premature.
Finally, what QB will the Broncos get? The journey man Case Keenum or last year’s Case Keenum who led the Vikings to the NFC Championship?
Lots of intrigue leading up to the season
Can’t wait, Ghost.
Happy Fourth, Bill! I think you are right on the button with your rankings. I think it is telling that the Vikings moved on from a QB who took them to within a game of the SB. It tells me that he is the journeyman (to use Ghost’s term) and not THE guy. The Vikes thought so little of their three QBs, that they took a chance on a guy whose team refused to sign him long term and ultimately let him go. Lots of “ifs” with the Raiders offense. The Chiefs and Chargers offenses, IMHO, are pretty close. The Chargers just need their players to stay healthy. Long story short, I agree with you! 🙂
