In the AFC West preview, Todd Fuhrman and Payne Insider dive into the division’s dynamics, starting with the Denver Broncos. With Sean Payton taking over as head coach, there’s optimism about turning things around after a disappointing season with Russell Wilson at QB. Denver has moved on from Wilson and they now hope Bo Nix can provide them with a bounce back season. However, questions remain about the Broncos' offensive line and whether the defense can keep up with the Chiefs and Chargers.
Moving to the Kansas City Chiefs, the reigning Super Bowl champions are still the team to beat. Patrick Mahomes continues to redefine the quarterback position, and the Chiefs’ offense remains potent even after losing some pieces in the offseason. The duo emphasizes the importance of Chris Jones on the defensive line, especially with the depth concerns in the secondary. Kansas City’s continuity and coaching under Andy Reid keep them atop the division.
The Las Vegas Raiders face more uncertainty. The Raiders have offensive weapons like Davante Adams, but their defense, particularly the secondary, is a significant concern. Todd and Payne are skeptical about the Raiders making a playoff push in a tough division.
For the Los Angeles Chargers, the potential is high, but so is the pressure. Justin Herbert is expected to elevate his game, especially with Jim Harbaugh coming to town. However, injuries have plagued the Chargers in recent years, and the defense, despite having stars like Joey Bosa and Derwin James, needs to be more consistent.
