Summary

DNVR Broncos Zac Stevens, Ryan Koenigsberg & Henry Chisholm Break Down Why you should be optimistic about the Denver Broncos chances of winning the AFC West despite starting the season 1-1. Through two weeks the AFC West is upside down—Chargers 2–0, Broncos & Raiders 1–1, Chiefs 0–2—making Denver’s path to a division lead very real. We break down how a Week 3 road win vs. the Chargers would vault the Broncos into first via head-to-head/tiebreakers—and why a Burrow-less Bengals matchup next week turns this into a pivotal two-game swing. We also look at what Chiefs-Giants on Sunday Night Football could mean for the race and how oddsmakers are already shifting AFC West futures. Subscribe, drop your AFC West pick, and let’s talk what this all means for Sean Payton, Bo Nix, and the Broncos’ playoff push!

0:00.0	Through two weeks in the NFL season, the AFC West is flipped upside down.
0:04.4	You have the Kansas City Chiefs sitting there at 0 in 2 at the bottom of the division.
0:09.4	You have the Chargers at the top of 2 and on, then you have the Broncos and Raiders right there after the Chargers at 1.
0:15.8	Does this total change up two weeks into the season change the way the Broncos can win this. And does it
0:22.0	give them a better chance to win the AFC West? I think it does in a sense. You always want to see,
0:27.7	you know, like ding dong the witch is dead as it relates to the chiefs. Now, I'm not saying they're
0:32.4	dead. But I'd like to see them die. And so, So them being at the bottom of the race makes their race more open for the other three teams.
0:45.5	Absolutely.
0:46.9	Here's the scary thing.
0:49.4	Broncos play the Chargers this week.
0:51.6	You got to win this one.
0:53.6	If you don't win this one, the chargers are
0:56.3	three and oh on the season, three and oh in the division to start the season with a game on
1:02.3	every single team. It's as good as a lead as you could possibly get going out of the gates.
1:09.3	So like, you know, maybe Andy Reid and Pete Carroll are calling up Sean Payton this week
1:13.9	and giving them some tips because no one in the division wants to see the Chargers
1:18.7	start off 3 and 0.
1:19.8	So it's a great opportunity if you get this one.
1:24.3	If you get this one, it's kind of like all is equal.
1:27.3	Well, it's not even just equal. You're now number one in the division. Right. Like even if the Raiders win, they have the worst divisional record compared to the Chargers and Broncos. Broncos obviously have the head to head over the Chargers. You win on Sunday. You now are the number one team in the AFC West, and there could be some tiebreakers involved.
1:44.3	There would be at least one.
1:45.7	I think that they're in a good spot.
