Default Week One, and the AFC West looks completely awful!

Seriously, this division looks completely winnable. The Chiefs look awful. The Raiders may be playing for the #1 pick. And the Chargers aren't going to play the Raiders every week - at some point, Phillip Rivers is going to have to win some games for them. Tonight, they didn't seem all that comfortable letting him throw - even on third and 5 or 6.

Then again, the same could be said about us, after yesterday.

Man, the Raiders just look shockingly terrible. Art Shell looks like he's in a coma.

I don't know why. The man equalled the total point output he got from his team over the past decade. That's pretty good if you're anybody but Art Shell.

Damn, it's week one. It's a little early to be calling this a weak division. Let's be honest, it's a damn fine division, if you eliminate the chefs and the faiders.

Nobody's a playoff team yet, Bob. Wait until the playoffs and then tell us who you lost to.

We turned the ball over five times on the road, never gave up a TD and still only lost by one score. You got obliterated at home.

If the roles were reversed, I'd be more pissed off than you could possibly imagine and be scared to death of playing you guys this week.

Oh, what garbage. We turned the ball over several times and lost by five more measly points. We also lost our starting quarterback for over a quarter.

Right now, there's not much difference from where I'm sitting.

they are in such a bad division i could see them sneaking a win vs. Seatle and possibly winning that division.

Ahhh Bob. I'll add this to your great list of comparisons:

Trent Green = John Elway

Losing at home = Losing on road

Bobo logic-Vol II

Love this stuff

"We were 6th against the run maaaaan"-translated-25th defense over-all

.."we only lost by five more measly points..."-translated-lost by 13 points. TWO touchdowns minus one XP.

With this kind of thinking, Germany won the war & we are speaking German...we just don't know it.

Watching the Rams play I must say... I was probably their biggest critic over the past four or five years... notably going into this game. They looked very impressive and call it what you want but St. Louis has the ability to become a playoff team. The parts are there... they have two stud OT's... a work horse HB who the coach is committed to running, and some big play WR's, even Bruce in his old age. Even Bulger has the ability to pick up big 3rd down conversions if he can stay healthy. Frerotte will be good in the backup role if he has to come in.

I severly doubted their defense but they looked really good. I don't think they are overly talented but Haslett has hime in the right positions. He could do a job very comparable to what Williams is doing with Washington.

I like the Rams better than Washington, Tampa, and Arizona right now. Washington doesn' thave a QB... Tampa doesn't have a proven QB in my eyes and Arizona's defense just isn't that good.
