This was my bold prediction a while ago, Julian. Chargers win the AFC West. I really believe it and it seems like others do as well. The Harbaugh factor is real 👀
Winning a game does not equate to winning the division. Chiefs will go 5-1 in the division like they usually do, 4-2 at worst. The offense won’t be bad again this year, and they’ll have the 1 or the 2 seed. We’ve seen this before.
You’re the one that is literally using the past as an indicator for the future. So by your logic they will keep winning every Super Bowl as well. 🤷♂️ don’t hate on me for using your own logic against you.
I’d be shocked, like actually shocked if the Chargers win the division this year, minus any significant injuries. Over the next 3-5 years? Yes, the Chargers will be a team to not only be a division favourite but, a conference and super bowl favourite. This coming year, I cannot see it.
That I agree with totally. But many many fans are confident the Chiefs will continue to win the division year after year. Which is just absurd to me. This isn't the Jets with Mark Sanchez and Mangini going up against the Patriots. This is freaking Harbaugh and Justin Herbert. They will literally be a top QB/coach duo in the NFL for years to come
Last season with injuries and shitty coaching we lost 7 games by 3 Points or less! And we still won 5 games, So if we stay healthy with an AMAZING coach in my opinion the sky IS the limit even in the first year!
@@claudiaonorato4340 yea man I’m right there with you and couldn’t agree more that the chargers are an easy 10 win team last year. Just following Harbaugh career and want his goals and visions are it takes time. He knows what he’s doing.
I’m not shock because I do believe they going to do it. Sometime everything it’s blooming at the right time and you just hit all cylinders. Trust me, it could happen this year! It’s either hit or miss but I think it’s a hit especially everyone is doubting us right now.
KC is 5he class in the division, for now. But KC is an injury away from missing the playoffs. They have had bad losses against bad teams last year. Denver will improve as well. I like and respect KC but they all, I repeat ALL, come tumbling down at some point and often in expectantly. One thing to remember, people critisized NE because they played in a soft division. You could say the same for KC. But that will change.
Because the division is only getting better. And no way I don’t see the chargers winning the division at least once in the next few years. Harbaugh and Herbert will be a top elite duo
I’m a chiefs fan and we hear this all the time. All the focus on every other team but none on the chiefs. Prime Patrick still, legit wr1, coach ,offensive continuity, te STILL and the numbers still show it, stellar rb with a great defense. Things change year by year of course and it’s in every teams interest to get better but nothing is certain but what it is is that for the past 7 years the chiefs have shown growth at its finest. Can you say that top to down the chargers will be better than the chiefs? They will improve no doubt but the chiefs thing isn’t stopping anytime soon when it looks like they only get better every year. This is a BAD take. Just don’t forget the top dog in the division and what they are doing currently for the future.
"least favorable possible schedule" and then dismisses the Raiders, Steelers, Browns, Saints, and titans as wins as if all of those teams didn't have a better record than the Chargers last year. I get the point you're making but we would've said the same thing about their schedule the last 3 years. Like who could've possibly guessed before last year that they would've won 5 games? They continually disappoint
With Kennan Allen and prime Eckler they always had a shot. However, the makeshift receivers on offense and sorry excuse for a defense will just automatically figure it out cuz Harbaugh?? No. Cheifs have as easy a division as Brady had XD
Yeah I would expect to see Mahomes winning this division for at least the next 6 or 7 years as long as he’s healthy. Harbaugh is good. Andy is better. Herbert is good. Mahomes is the best. Find me a team when a team has the best coach and QB in a division healthy and they don’t win the division. Literally never happened once with Brady in NE in two decades.
The chargers are always hyped up, and always dissapoint, it is just not a serious organization, even the fans dont care, this is just another rosey eyed what if they are good this year take
@JWLSports he is still outmatched by reid, that can't be disputed, minter is outmatched by spagnola, that can't be disputed, Herbert is outmatched by mahomes, that can't be disputed... so where exactly is the dispute that they can beat kc for the division?? Nowhere, made up, make believe
@JWLSports everybody loses. Doesn't mean they won't beat the record. The fact that that's unfathomable to you is what's absurd. Keep doubting and keep being wrong. It's fun to watch.
Well said Julian. 👏 chargers fan here. I can’t see how the charger don’t genuinely content for the division given Harbaughs track record, Herbert’s elite status, easy strength of schedule, AND A RUN GAME! which I’ve always said, to beat the chiefs you must have a balanced offense, and a upper middle of the pack defense at least. Bengals and bills have this and they’ve beaten KC multiple times. Herbert’s arm + Romans run game and minters defense is the formula we need to topple KC. also chiefs average about 4 losses a season. With an emerging AFCWest, that number will climb (KC average losses) and chargers will contribute to that, positioning themselves for a division title.
Chargers schedule looking favorable tho… could be a surprise team. Going against Harbaugh and Herbert is not an easy task for any team. They have the third or fourth easiest schedule according to most analytics
I’m not falling in any trap. I didn’t say they are going to lose this season. But I don’t think they will win the division another 4 years in a row. It’s not that controversial.
I could see the Chargers winning 11-12 games and winning the division in their first season under Harbaugh. They play a last-place schedule. The Chiefs play a 1st place schedule, plus every team they play will be motivated beyond normal to knock them off. The Raiders and Broncos aren't in the conversation. They are 4 win teams IMO. The Raiders' coach is bankrupt.
Definitely agree with the evaluation. Chargers lost way too many one score games with so many injuries and off field issues. New blood and a Great Coach will turn this team around. It’s almost a guarantee
Jim Harbaugh went 44-19-1 with the San Francisco 49ers first 4 years, the Chargers will be a threat to the Chiefs depending on how offense is going to be with Justin Herbert with a running game.
Nick's homerism would be more annoying if he weren't right most of the time. That being said, he completely ignores the fact that the Chargers always play them tight and usually beat themselves. They won't be doing that going forward with Harbaugh. Nick also completely and constantly undervalues Herbert's talent.
Until the other teams show me I’m not beating on them. Also it’s goanna take a year or two to fix the chargers. Baring injury I’m taking the best QB and best coach in the division.
Just call these guys what they are… Chiefs fans. We “lost “ Keenan, Mike and Austin?” Uh NOOO we let them go. Nobody is irreplaceable.No way these guys can be non biased. Drives me crazy. Never watch them. 🙄
Review every game Herbert has played against the Chiefs. Justin Herbert can beat the Chiefs. Brandon Stayley couldn't stop them. Herbert's had basically the worst run game and one of the worst defenses his entire career. That won't happen under Harbaugh. Can the Chargers win the division? Oh yeah
The Broncos and Raiders got better? Based on what? The Chargers roster got worse. The only team in the AFC West that got better will be KC. Their incredibly young defense is a year older, and they brought in Hollywood. Chiefs: 13-4 Chargers: 9-8 Raiders: 7-10 Broncos: 4-13
They beat the Chiefs on a down year. The Chargers are not winning the AFC West next season...That would be the BIGGEST shock in the NFL next year. NO WAY the Chiefs are as bad as they were last year. ALSO it will take a full season for Jim to transfer them into his type of team. That doesn't happend INSTANTLY. 2026 the will be scary...not next season.
The question never was if the Chargers will the Division at some point in the future but rather they will this coming season. So you sound absolutely ridiculous with your argument.
just shows your inability to process information. There were two layers to the conversation - Chargers win this year and then later on if the chiefs can chase down the patriots record. Out from the jump you already said the chiefs will not win this year. The patriots angle is a separate conversation. Stop sounding inept
I literally addressed both separate points. Your inability to follow a basic discussion is not my fault. Clearly you didn’t watch the entire video. The only one who is inept you bud. Maybe sit the next few plays out huh champ?
I can tell you're in denial about the chiefs reign. Will the teams get better absolutely, but one thing that hasn't and won't change no time soon is mahomes is the best QB in that division. Chiefs have drafted so well that their defense are all under 25 exempt for chris jones and Reid. Unless mahomes misses a chunk of the season this will be the chiefs division until a new regime change
@@JWLSports the chargers just gutted their entire skill position group. They are 100 percent in rebuild mode with yet another Coach who needs time to build his culture. Broncos still don't have a QB as well as the raiders. The chiefs roster is infact strong and has the exact same coaches for years now. Unless mahomes is hurt I don't see how chargers or raiders can win the division.
Man I love listenng to you bt YOUR TRIPPING on this one...FOR NEXT SEASON down the line I see the AFC West getting better BUT nothing has been done to say any of these other team will win NEXT SEASON. The Chiefs will be BETTER as well. They wont be what we saw last year when the won the SB.
Haha thank you! Well to be clear I’m not saying the chargers will win the division this season. I’m saying moving forward it’s going to be way harder for the chiefs to run away with it year after year.
This was my bold prediction a while ago, Julian. Chargers win the AFC West. I really believe it and it seems like others do as well. The Harbaugh factor is real 👀
Haha pinned!
Delusional thoughts from fantasy island
Complete fantasy.
😂
I'm not sure why he is so stunned. Didn't the Broncos and the Raiders beat the Chiefs last year ? If that's the case, the Chargers can do that
Exactly! And those teams were messes last season.
@@StevenBB222 Not to mention the Chargers play the Chiefs incredibly well and that’s with Staley as the coach
@@night_wolf6621 exactly!! I always loved Andy, Harbaugh will make it tough on them for sure. I wish I had Harbaugh as a HC.
lol agreed! He’s a bonafide true elite head coach.
Winning a game does not equate to winning the division.
Chiefs will go 5-1 in the division like they usually do, 4-2 at worst. The offense won’t be bad again this year, and they’ll have the 1 or the 2 seed.
We’ve seen this before.
Only way Chiefs dont win division is if Mahomes gets hurt. You're trippin
The chiefs are not winning the division for the next 4 years. This shouldn’t be that controversial of a statement. 🤷♂️
@JWLSports they have for 8, keep coping buddy
Sure. I guess Mahomes will win 18 super bowls too. 😂
@JWLSports super bowls and division titles are two different things. Move the goalpost though that's fine 😂
You’re the one that is literally using the past as an indicator for the future. So by your logic they will keep winning every Super Bowl as well. 🤷♂️ don’t hate on me for using your own logic against you.

Having said that 5 or their losses were by 7 or less points and were because of the HC/DC
KC is 5he class in the division, for now. But KC is an injury away from missing the playoffs. They have had bad losses against bad teams last year. Denver will improve as well. I like and respect KC but they all, I repeat ALL, come tumbling down at some point and often in expectantly. One thing to remember, people critisized NE because they played in a soft division.

Ekkler was a good chess piece who couldn't run it up the middle. He was a great catch passing running back. I trust Harbaughs new running back system
Dude, there has never been a quarterback or team with the past 6 years as the chiefs, so this is the way shit works now
🥴😂😂😂
The way things are going I don't see any team in the division overtaking the chiefs with #15 and probably a top 5 offense and defense
I don't see how you think the chiefs won't at least come a little bit closer to Patriots record
Because the division is only getting better. And no way I don’t see the chargers winning the division at least once in the next few years. Harbaugh and Herbert will be a top elite duo
@@JWLSportswhat divisions are getting worse?

They get attention but the focus between the lines is different.

That was before Harbaugh. He is a legitimate elite coach. That can’t be disputed.
