There are three week four games involving the AFC West including the Denver Broncos hosting Kansas City. Here are predictions for those games.

Every week in the National Football League, teams continue to form an identity. Some teams are on the rise, while others prove that they have a lot of work to do. The AFC West is often a division where you never truly know who will come out in front at the end of the year. Anything can happen.

Right now, the division looks like this:

1. Kansas City Chiefs (3-0)
2. Denver Broncos (2-1)
3. Los Angeles Chargers (1-2)
4. Los Angeles Raiders (0-3)

Many divisional matchups are yet to be played over the course of the season. That means that the division is still very much up for grabs.

That’s the exciting thing about the NFL. You’re never really truly out of playoff contention until the mathematics say you are.

I won’t get ahead of myself here, so let’s stick to talking about this week’s matchups.

Each team in the league always will have something they need to work on to get better. No team is perfect, despite what their record says.

If any team was “perfect” then the rest may as well stay home, right?

Now, let’s get started. Fellow staff writer Baylor Bradac and I give our predictions for the AFC West teams’ games this weekend.
