I'm going out and looking at the other teams' depth charts, and ... wow. Those other three teams have holes.
Chiefs 17-0, or maybe as low as 13-4 if they hide some looks and go vanilla.
Raiders 9-8. They have have a veteran QB and some good players on defense. I think maybe they can eke out a +.500 season.
Chargers 6-11. Their roster is as bad as the broncos' roster. They'll get coached to some wins as Harbaugh steals signals. But there's not much talent there any more.
broncos 5-12. A rookie QB with little skill position talent around him won't score many points, and I don't see their defense keeping games close without an offense. [Reply]

Agreed. They have no receivers for their supposed franchise quarterback, so they're going to be a Gus Edwards-driven offense. And the defense will be without Joey Bosa for 12 games.*

They lost a lot of one score games. They do have a very good QB & a head coach that is actually good. Its not that hard to go 9-8 in todays NFL. Most games are close. I think there are 5 really good teams in the AFC. Chiefs, Bengals, Bills, Texans and Ravens. The rest are about the same. So coaching and QB make the difference at the next level. Herbert, Tua, Rogers [Reply]

I don't buy it.
Look at their team...
Their OL should be good..Herbert has plantar fascisitis which is a shitty injury.
They have nothing at WR, like that group sucks, their RB room is the skeletons of the Ravens.
And that doesn't even account for the fact that their defense is pure liquid shit, they'd literally need Bosa and Mack to get 20 sacks a piece to be a middle of the pack unit. [Reply]

That team had Keenan Allen this one has Quentin Johnston Ladd McConkey and Josh Palmer. [Reply]

Agree. Note that team could have won a lot more games with even decent coaching. 10-7 is not that hard in todays game. Ofcourse I hope they suck! [Reply]
