The Denver Broncos won the AFC West in 2015, and ultimately Super Bowl 50, on the strength of a great defense. Some notable player losses in Denver this offseason stand to level the playing field a bit though, and here are the AFC West power rankings right now.
4. San Diego Chargers
Sean M. Haffey-Getty ImagesBetter health alone should bring improvement for the Chargers in 2016 after a 4-12 record last season. But they still face an uphill climb back to relevance in the AFC West.
3. Kansas City Chiefs
Getty ImagesA 10-game winning streak put the Chiefs into contention for a division title late last season, and they won a Wild Card game. Kansas City drafted solidly last month, but it's hard to see a full repeat of 2015 this year.
2. Oakland Raiders
Getty ImagesThe Raiders are a young team on the rise, and they did well in free agency as well as the draft this year. If you want to pick a dark horse division winner for 2016, look no further than Oakland.
1. Denver Broncos
Getty ImagesThe Broncos' talent level took a hit this offseason, but the defending Super Bowl champions are the king of the AFC West until proven otherwise.
