Yeah, I know people like that too.
Looking ahead like your buddy did, the AFC West may be a pretty stout division next year. But I really do wonder if the Raiders can keep this improvement curve up, and I am really curious what the Chiefs will be like next year. While they have been on as good a run for the past three years as any team in recent Chiefs memory I cannot help but feel their coach will be the reason they never get over the hump. But I'll save that discussion for after the draft and schedule is released.
The ridiculously bad clock management that Reid has always had will be very hard for him and the Chiefs to ever fully overcome. Smith also seems like the type of QB that is good enough to keep his job but not quite to that level that you can lean on him to take you to that next level. Now he could go win with a defense like ours this year heck I think a decent number of QB's probably could have but not too often does a QB get such a group around them.
I will say though the Chiefs definitely have some nice pieces. Maclin if he can stay healthy and Kelce both look like nice weapons for the next few years on offense and defensively they have playmakers at every level. Like you said though hard to really know what any of our teams will look like as I do suspect quite a few changes throughout our division.
