For a brief moment this season, it looked like the Chiefs’ reign in the AFC was potentially drawing to a close. Kansas City began the season 0-2 and looked rudderless on offense. However, little by little, the Chiefs began to get players back from injury and now from suspension with the return of Rashee Rice.

Fast forward to where we are entering Week 8: the Chiefs have won four of their last five games and have scored 30 points in three of those victories. They are starting to look like the Chiefs of old, and with the NFL being in such an oddball season, they appear as dangerous as ever to climb back to the top of the mountain.

The AFC West remains competitive, however, as the Broncos are coming off an incredible 33-32 victory over the Giants that saw Denver score all 33 points in the fourth quarter as part of one of the most remarkable comebacks in recent memory.

Denver’s win propelled the Broncos to a 5-2 record and the top spot in the AFC West. Their sensational defense makes them a dangerous team, but they have the misfortune of playing in the strongest division in the conference.

The Chargers kicked off Week 8 with a 37-10 blowout victory over the Vikings to improve their record to 5-3 and are beginning to get healthy again in their own right. The Chargers currently hold the tie-breaker over the Chiefs due to their Week 1 victory, but the rematch at Arrowhead awaits.

Lastly, Pete Carroll has to be questioning his decision to return to the NFL to coach the Raiders. They began the season with a win over the Patriots in a matchup that was very clearly a fluke and have been utterly miserable since. Their Week 7 performance against the Chiefs was quite literally one of the worst in NFL history.

Before we jump headfirst into the rest of the AFC West, here’s a look at the current odds to win the division.

Los Angeles Chargers+380+110+100+310
Las Vegas Raiders+10000+4500+1400+1200

Thanks to the Chiefs rattling off four wins in their last five games and looking extremely dangerous in the process, oddsmakers have Kansas City at -130 to win the AFC West for the 10th consecutive season. They were +260 after starting the season 0-2, which now looks like a gift for those who grabbed it.

The Broncos are 5-2 on the year but have the second-shortest odds to win the division at +220. Their defense is relentless, but the offense has been up and down through Denver’s first seven games. If Sean Payton can stabilize that side of the ball, this is a team that could certainly make some noise in January.

The Chargers are +380 to win the division despite holding a 3-0 division record and trailing the Broncos by only a half-game in the loss column. If you are looking for a sleeper out west, the Chargers could be that team.

The Raiders are 100-1 long shots to win the division, and that number should probably be even higher.

2025 AFC West Win Totals

There is no better way to understand how a division is perceived by the oddsmakers than looking at team win totals as the season goes on.

Here’s how the AFC West shakes out in the win total department entering Week 8.

  • It’s crazy to think the Chiefs win total was 9.5 after Week 2. That number looks like a complete steal now as Kansas City has found its groove and now has a win total back at where they opened up the season with a projected 11.5 wins.

  • The Broncos win total has yo-yo’d throughout the season and now sits at a season-high 10.5 following their amazing comeback win over the Giants. 10.5 may be a bit too inflated given their remaining schedule this season.

  • The Chargers are back down to their preseason total of 9.5 and this could be the perfect buy low opportunity on a team that started the season red hot, got dinged up, and is now getting healthy again.

  • Pete Carroll never won less than seven games in a season during his long tenure in Seattle, but that’s looking like it won’t carry over to a Vegas squad that is terrible at just about everything.

2025 AFC West – To Win Super Bowl Odds

The Chiefs have moved from 13-1 to win the Super Bowl entering Week 3 to the shortest odds to win the Super Bowl at +500 just five weeks later. The hope that Kansas City was about to fade into the background will have to wait another season as they look quite dangerous.

As a testament to how balanced the AFC West is, however, the Broncos and Chargers each have respectable odds of 20-1 and 25-1 respectively.

The Raiders have roughly the same odds as Geno Smith’s current projected interception total.

Las Vegas Raiders+40000+40000+15000+12500

Despite beating the Chiefs to open the season and having a superior record to them entering October, the Chargers are still trailing in the Super Bowl futures market, probably because deep down we all know they’ll always be the Chargers.

With that being said, their odds to win their first-ever Lombardi continue to shrink from their preseason numbers, as they are listed at +1600 entering Week 5.

The Broncos’ odds dipped slightly in the last two weeks, moving from 27-1 to 30-1, and the Raiders’ Super Bowl odds are now at the bottom of the board at 400-1.

Four hundred is also the projected total of interceptions Geno Smith will throw this season.

2025 AFC West – Player MVP Odds

If you took Patrick Mahomes to win the MVP following the Chiefs’ 0-2 start, you could be holding a golden ticket, as Mahomes has moved from 25-1 to win MVP all the way to the shortest odds amongst all players at +125.

After being a hot candidate for MVP for the first month of the season, Justin Herbert faded back to the pack and is now offered at 40-1 to win MVP.

Despite Denver’s historic comeback win over the Giants, Bo Nix remains as a deep longshot for MVP consideration and Geno Smith is not winning MVP so just don’t do it.
