We all sorta expected it at some point. The Donkeys and Bolts have substantially improved so it looks like the cakewalks of years prior won't be so easy. They would give us the division by like game 8. Not this year even though we are highly likely to close it out again. End of year division games may mean much more this year.
I think it's better for the Chiefs as they have to focus for every game and the proof will be in the results. No easy games.
Then you have the Raiders, who are the Browns or Jets of the West. They have one or two big victories a year like beating the Ravens this year and us last year.
As we finish up 2024 with a Super Bowl march and look at 2025 and beyond, our drafts, the ability to execute in free agency and having a season with fewer injuries will be much more important.
Beating them will be tougher BUT much more rewarding.
Here's to a better overall, more respected AFC West.........:-) [Reply]
I loved the Harbaugh and Peyton hires. Honestly, I wouldn't have been mad if Reid retired and KC hired one of them. Both are fantastic coaches and significant upgrades to their previous coaches....and after sucking ass for so long, they are loaded with talent.

Then there are the Raiders...
Sean Peyton is a low life piece of shit coach that paid players (bounty gait) to end careers of football players. I would be pissed if he ever coached the Chiefs. He fits the Broncos with their history of cut blocking.
