So what AFC teams are actually in contention for the 1 seed?
I think we can safely remove these (barring something really crazy happening):
-the rest of the AFC West (seems really unlikely that any would win the division)
-Browns
-Titans
-Jags
-Dolphins
-Patriots
We can probably eliminate:
-Colts (bad QB situation)
-Bengals (3 losses already)
That leaves:
-Chiefs (undefeated, but injuries)
-Buffalo (can they beat good teams too?)
-Jets (offense looks really really bad at times, Rodgers may not last)
-Steelers (great defense but Fields limits the team)
-Ravens (will Lamar/Henry last?)
-Texans (were well behind the Ravens last year and haven’t impressed this year) [Reply]

Baltimore was also 2-2 after 4 games in 2019. They won 14 in a row to finish the regular season at 14-2 with the #1 seed.
Their division is a lot better this season. [Reply]
