There's no way the Chargers are for real. The Lions were blowing the fucking doors off of them before the Lions remembered they're still a horrible team.
I think that whole division is a shitshow, but Denver's pass rush looks scary good and even a floppy arm Manning can still make some pretty ridiculous passes at times. I think they win the division pretty handily.

My man.
In all seriousness though I am not looking forward to playing either team. Denver and KC both have a pretty serious pass rush and the Chargers Oline was really shitty.

noodle manning is just hiding his true power level. I bet when the first frosts of the year roll around he turns into some mechanic ice juggernaut that goes to 80% completion and throws 500 yards a game.
We'll probably even get to see his eyes glow red before he wins his ring.

Manning's Oline is making him look much worse than he actually is. People have been making fun of his arm strength since he came to Denver while he's gone 13-3, 13-3, and 12-4

Yeah, I don't think it is that difficult to imagine the Broncos making the playoffs, but they are in Super Bowl or bust mode and they don't look like a Super Bowl contender to me.

And? Even a fucking limpy arm still puts Manning better than just about every QB in the league. I'd put noodle Manning no worse than 8th, honestly. 8th best QB can still win you a championship, let alone the shitty AFC West. Especially if their defense holds up. The problem is, Manning is fucking shit-tier come playoff time.

Well that's kinda the problem isn't it? I'm not saying he sucks and they should bench him. Of course they are going to win games. But beyond the W-L record its looking likely to be a repeat of last year. This is a team that wants nothing short of a SB and when he falls off a cliff down the stretch the D and run game alone probably aren't going to carry them against other AFC contenders.

Not to mention that prior to this season, throughout his career, he's been criticized for his poor performance in bad weather. so not only will he deal with just general fatigue as the weeks go on, but you can only assume his home games in Denver in Dec, Jan won't be stellar.
