Denver Broncos still the favorite to win AFC West

Despite sharing the same 4-1 record as the Oakland Raiders, Vegas still thinks the AFC West is the Denver Broncos to lose.

Bookmaker.eu updated their division odds today and despite the bad loss to the Atlanta Falcons, the Denver Broncos are still 4-1 and favorite nicely over the Oakland Raiders to win the AFC West.

AFC West Division Odds - Week 6

The Raiders needed a laughable botched snap to beat the Chargers at home this past week, which is the third such last second win Oakland has needed to get to 4-1. This suggests they are a bit of a fraud.

Despite the rough start to 2016, oddsmakers have not totally lost faith in the Chiefs who are not that far behind the Raiders here. Denver hits the road to face a dangerous San Diego squad this Thursday night who has lost almost all of their games in the final minutes. A win there would likely extend this gap even more despite what the other teams do on Sunday.

Feel free to use this as a little ammunition for the crazed Raider fans out there who haven’t tasted so much success since the first George W. Bush presidential term.
