AFC West: Repeat Offenders

The Pick: San Diego Chargers. again.
Why?!!?: Heres why, since 2006 only one team has won the AFC West. Regardless of the coach, the Chargers come out on top. I'd like to say that this was thanks to LaDanian Tomlinson, but thats not the case. Since 2006, the man making the constant difference in San Diego is Billy Volek...'s starter Philip Rivers. River's continues to lead the Chargers even in the absence of LT and Vincent Jackson. So they lost to the Chiefs and so what if Marcus McNeil is holding out. Rivers will continue to operate at a high level and lets be fair, which team has the fire power to compete with the Chargers down the stretch? None. A resurgent defense and the powerful Antonio Gates, yeah they'll be fine. Winners of the AFC though? Nah...keep looking. Chargers win the division, but not the conference.
Runner up: Kansas City Chiefs; in a surprise move the Patriots Mid West start to resemble their blue print.
Not in the Basement: Broncos. Tebow era can't come soon enough.
Cellar Dwellar: Surprise Al Davis continues to rent from the basement.

Al Being Al...
