What they might be thinking: AFC West
Denver Broncos
We couldn't be happier this offseason. We unloaded Tim Tebow. Yeah, he's a great guy, but we're looking for a great passer. And oh by the way, we added a great passer to the roster when we were able to sign Peyton Manning. We have a solid defense, good offensive weapons, and one of the best quarterbacks to ever play the game. We think we should be able to dominate the AFC West, and we think Manning could be the piece that sends us over the top. We have high goals for 2012, and we believe we have every possibility to accomplish them.
San Diego Chargers
We aren't sure who we are anymore. We're constantly told we're going to compete for a Super Bowl victory, but every year we fall flat at some point in the year. We still think Philip Rivers can bring the Lombardi Trophy to San Diego, but we have to put a complete season together to do that. Norv Turner survived last year, but if we're not in the playoffs at the end of this season, it may be time to clean house and try to re-work the team while Rivers is still a great quarterback.
Oakland Raiders
Under our new regime, we can build a stable roster with a good coaching staff. Dennis Allen should bring a new perspective to Oakland, and we think he could be the next young star in the NFL in the coaching ranks. Still, we need to be patient. We're in a very competitive division, and victories won't come easy. It may take a couple of years, but we think we're heading the right direction.
Kansas City Chiefs
We believe in new head coach Romeo Crennel. When he took over for Todd Haley at the end of 2011, a fire was lit under us, and we rose to the occasion. We had way too many key injuries last season, but we think we can rebound in a big way in 2012. The NFL almost always has a "worst to first" team, and we think that could be us in 2012.

what a way to start this off saying: We couldn't be happier this offseason. We unloaded Tim Tebow. The ONLY ONE happy is ELWAY.... anyone that watched the Broncos last season could see FOR THE FIRST TIME Elway was a two faced bitch. .... I was an Elway fan, thought he was a great guy, but last year when the Broncos were winning and he had his fake smiles and high fives going - I knew he didn't like Tebow... Peyton will be retireing before you know it and if Tebow would of stayed with the Broncos, he was on pace to beat Elways records..... as I said, Elways was my favorite Bronco = until I saw his true colors last year..... As a Bronco fan, I kinda want to see Tebow do great in NY and knock Denver out of the Playoffs - it would serve Elway right - KARMA DOES EXIST - Remember Oton? lol
@MikeAnderson What records was Tebow going to break? Yes, Peyton Manning will retire, probably in the next 3 years (3 at the latest in my opinion), but he makes the Broncos a contender to win a Super Bowl now, something Tebow never did. Getting rid of Tebow was a move that had to happen. In the NFL, you can't have a completely one-dimensional offense and expect to win. Tebow completed the lowest percent of his passes out of all quarterbacks in the league. That's not how you win games in the playoffs. I understand that Tebow was a fan favorite, but it was the right move in the long run. As for Tebow knocking the Broncos out of the playoffs, he has to get on the field to do that, and Mark Sanchez is still the Jets' starter.
