Chargers won a lot of close games last year, usually that normalizes, so they seem like a 9-7 type squad if that happens.
Packers could implode again.
My Cowboys prediction is really based around their Defense and having Amari Cooper all year.
I believe Zeke will report sooner or later regardless of new deal or not because he can't reach FA if he doesn't report in time. Plus what leverage does he really have if the Cowboys go 4-2 [Reply]
I just went week by week, did not track how things were going as I went.
Chiefs 11-5 (home 6-2, away 5-3 - lost to BAL, HOU, DEN, NEP, CHI)
Broncos 9-7
Chargers 7-9
Raiders 2-14
other AFC Div Winners
CLE 13-3 (tie breaker over PIT)
HOU 13-3
Pats 12-3-1 (not sure what I did there, but don't recall selecting a tie and not going back to look)
Chiefs topple @ NE in the AFCCG and face the Rams, whom defeated PHI in the NFCCG.

Andy and this team is very sporadic.
They were with Alex and bounces definitely mattered more. Historically though, offense like the chiefs had last year translates year to year so I don't think they'll back up that much.
If they stay healthy I think they'll win the division and should challenge for the 1 seed, but the d needs to improve for sure. [Reply]
