 Kansas City Chiefs
At the halfway point of the 2007 NFL season, it's safe to say that it hasn't been a banner year for the AFC West. Not a single team in the division has a winning record going into Week 10, putting the 4-4 Kansas City Chiefs on top of the pack thanks to a tie-breaking win over San Diego. The sudden mediocrity running rampant in the division is...

That's right, Oakland is a digrace to the NFL and Denver is just a little bit ahead of them. San Diego on the other hand is good enough, even though we whooped them in their own house 30-15. San Diego and the KC Chiefs are the ones that are going to duke it out for the AFC West Championship. We will take 1st place this week all by our selves. We better because we face the Colts next week, and that's an ifie game to say the least. GO KC DEFENSE!!!!!

The AFC West in the big picture is insignificant, only the Denver Broncos have been to and won and Super Bowl in the last 25 years, and only Oakland and Denver have been to a Championship game in the last 15. The division notoriously beats each other up, as is the case this year. I still don't see why the Chiefs on top at this point is so much of surprise. Oakland reeks. Denver is half-cocked behind Cutler, and San Diego has Norv Turner as a head coach. He would make the Pats mediocre in one season. That leaves the Chiefs, people bag on Herm, but he always seems to get his team in the hunt. And goal one is playoffs, after that who knows? I recall a 9-7 Pitt team winning it all just a scant two seasons ago. I would like to see KC be more aerial so that they can open up the run, in the past, especially Vermeil days, if you didn't respect the pass the Chiefs would hang 30 on you, now everyone just gets 7 or 8 in the box and keys on LJ. I don't see how getting another back to do the work is going to change anything if they are running behind the same O-Line. Once KC gets their holes filled on O-Line they might stay on top in the West.

Tommy Boy: You need to reevaluate your methods, because your reasoning is logistically and practically flawed. The quiefs are going no were. As bad as the Raider are they still have a better chance than the chiefs. Mark it down The Raiders will have a better record than the queifs when it's all over.
