AFC West 2026 Deep Dive: X-Factors, BOLD Predictions & Win Totals

Описание: Nate Tice & Hayden Winks deep dive on all four teams in the AFC West ahead of the 2026 NFL season. The duo start off with the defending division champs, the Denver Broncos, who are hoping to improve on an impressive playoff run last season with a new offensive playcaller (Davis Webb) and a new superstar at wide receiver (Jaylen Waddle).

Next, Nate & Hayden attempt to decipher whether we can trust the hype around the Los Angeles Chargers, who have been receiving a lot of attention around a new-look offense under offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel. The Kansas City Chiefs are up next, as Nate & Hayden discuss whether some huge changes could be coming to the offensive system following the addition of Kenneth Walker III.

The duo wrap things up with the Las Vegas Raiders, who are hoping to see a return to normalcy under head coach Klint Kubiak and a solid development year for first overall pick quarterback Fernando Mendoza. Nate & Hayden finish off the show with their final predictions for how the AFC West will shake out in 2026.
