AFC West Betting Totals Picks to Win the Division Next Season

 

Previous Betting News

Football is back, and while we are still basically at the start of preseason, the regular season is now very much on the horizon. Some bettors like to wait until the end of the preseason period before making predictions for the season, as you simply never know what type of injury issues might arise in the next month or so. For those of you ready to dive right in, we are going to start looking at the win totals for each team, with the AFC West in the spotlight today. The Kansas City Chiefs come in as the favorite to win it all, which also means that their win total is high. Let’s see if they can cross that big barrier, while also looking at the totals for the other 3 teams in the West to consider in your NFL betting odds.

Writer’s Picks for the 2024 AFC East Totals Picks

Kansas City Chiefs

Regular Season Wins: 11.5
Over: -142
Under: +116

To the surprise of no one, the Chiefs will head into the new season as the favorite to repeat as the Super Bowl champion. This is a team that has done a fantastic job of working within the salary cap to keep the core group in place, which means another year as a serious contender for the Super Bowl. Of course, it is Patrick Mahomes who serves as the leader of this team, and as long as he can stay healthy, the Chiefs are always in with a shot. In the 5 years that Mahomes has been in the league, the Chiefs have won 12 or more games, making the OVER seem like the way to go here.

LA Chargers

Regular Season Wins: 9.5
Over: -121
Under: -101

The win total posted by the bookies for the Chargers certainly makes it appear as though they could be a legitimate challenger for the division. They certainly have their QB in place, with Justin Herbert seemingly getting better with each passing season. Herbert is once again going to put up some gaudy numbers, but can the rest of the team climb on his shoulders to make this a winning season? I don’t see the Chargers winning the division, unless something happens to Mahomes, but they look like a definite Wild Card team. They won 10 games last season and have improved their win total in each of the last 5 seasons. A good OVER bet here.

Denver Broncos

Regular Season Wins: 8.5
Over: -110
Under: -110

A new head coach is in place in the Mile High City, but Sean Payton has made headlines for the wrong reasons this offseason. Will all of that end once the season begins, or will he continue to be a distraction throughout the regular season. My guess is that things will settle down once we get started with meaningful games. Another question that needs to be answered is whether Russell Wilson can have a bounce back year. Offense killed them last season, so any improvement there could take them OVER the posted total.

Las Vegas Raiders

Regular Season Wins: 9.5
Over: TBD
Under: TBD

This is something of a transition year for the Raiders, as they will be moving on from Derek Carr and starting the Jimmy G era in Sin City. Garropolo gets a ton of negative press, but this is a guy who has made a habit of finding a way to win, even if he doesn’t always look particularly flashy while doing it. The big question mark is the defense for the Raiders. If they struggle again, we might be looking at the UNDER.

The Denver Broncos may have won the AFC West title last season en route to their first Super Bowl title since John Elway retired following the 1999 season, but the defending champs look like they could be hard-pressed to simply reach the double-digit win mark in 2016. Thanks to the expert NFL betting lines analysis you’re about to get on the 2016 Total Win Odds, you’re going to find out, not only whether the Broncos have what it takes to win the AFC West in 2016, but the likely win totals for each AFC West Super Bowl hopeful. Okay, with that said, let’s rock and roll!

Betting Predictions on the 2016 NFL Season AFC West Win Totals

Denver Broncos (9.5)

The Broncos (12-4) may have won it all this past season, but they’re going to have a difficult time duplicating that success thanks to the retirement of Peyton Manning and departure of backup Brock Osweiler. Now the Broncos will look to reach the double-digit win mark, but they may have mediocre veteran Mark Sanchez leading them and that simply doesn’t bode well if you ask me. Still, with an elite defense, the Broncos could surprise in 2016. Now, let’s find out if they will.

I’ve got Denver losing home games against Carolina and Indianapolis in their first two games of the season before dropping other home dates against Kansas City and New England. I also have the Broncos losing road games at Cincinnati, San Diego, Oakland, New Orleans and Kansas City to finish at either 7-9 or potentially 8-8. Either way, the new-look Broncos will struggle to reach the 10-win plateau in 2016.

The Pick: Denver 7-9/Under

Kansas City Chiefs (9.0)

Andy Reid has built a perennial winner in Kansas City (11-5) and they could fly higher than ever in 2016 after winning 11 games last season despite not having dual threat running back Jamal Charles for virtually the entire 2015 campaign. Now, let’s find out why I believe the Chiefs are a lock selection against their 2016 win total odds.

I’ve got Alex Smith and the Chiefs potentially running the table at home in 2016 while losing road games against Pittsburgh, Indianapolis and Carolina to easily to their 2016 win total odds by finishing at 13-3 or a more realistic 12-4 or 11-5. No matter, the Chiefs easily reach the 10-win mark!

The Pick: Kansas City 12-4/Over

Oakland Raiders (7.5)

The Oakland Raiders (7-9) are undoubtedly a team on the upswing after winning seven games last season. The Raiders finally have a head coach and a front office with a plan, making them one of the most attractive teams in all of football as far as possible improvement is concerned in 2016. Now, let’s find out if Oakland can reach .500 in 2016.

I’ve got Derek Carr and company losing road games against Baltimore, Kansas City, San Diego and Denver while dropping home games against Houston, Carolina, and Indianapolis to finish with a winning record for the first time since Jess was a baby. Seriously though, the Raiders easily win eight games to top their 2016 win total odds.

The Pick: Oakland 9-7/Over

San Diego Chargers (7.0)

San Diego (4-12) took a huge step backwards in 2015, but they could rebound in a big way if all goes well. The Bolts still have an elite quarterback in Philip Rivers and a running back that should make great strides this coming season in Melvin Gordon. Will they be enough to help San Diego reach eight wins in 2016? Let’s find out!!

I’ve got Philip Rivers and company losing road games against Kansas City, Indianapolis, Oakland, Atlanta, Denver, Houston and Carolina while losing one home games against Kansas City to finish at 8-8 and narrowly OVER their 2016 win total odds.

The Pick: San Diego 8-8/Over
