The following is a look at how the AFC West teams fared in our Week 5 NFL Power Rankings. I do not have a vote, but I do have an opinion:
San Diego Chargers
Power ranking: 7
My range: 6-8
Why: The Chargers haven’t been dominating anyone. But they have to be pleased about where they are.
Oakland Raiders
Power ranking: 15
My range: 14-16
Why: The Raiders’ 12-point loss to the Patriots didn’t turn off the voters too much.
Denver Broncos
Power ranking: 27
My range: 27-29
Why: This team is still in the Andrew Luck conversation.
Kansas City Chiefs
Power ranking: 28
My range: 28-30
Why: Kudos to the Chiefs for keeping their stay at the bottom of the rankings at just one week.
