00:00Joe, our other three divisional favorites around the AFC, Buffalo in the AFC East, minus

00:05220.

00:06AFC South, it's the Texans at plus 140, and the Chiefs at minus 150.

00:13Every divisional favorite around the AFC has at least won their divisional crown each of

00:19the past two seasons, and for Buffalo and KC, a much longer win streak than that.

00:24The Bills have won the AFC East five consecutive years.

00:28The Chiefs have won the AFC West nine straight seasons.

00:32Yeah, they have, and again, you know, the Chiefs are the team to beat.

00:38I mean, the Chiefs, for me, are the team in the AFC, until you knock them off, I can't

00:44bet against them.

00:45I mean, early on, right?

00:46You know, first month of the season, you want to take a shot, depending upon how these teams

00:51start.

00:52Yeah, then you can take a shot.

00:53I mean, I want to bet on Josh Allen and Buffalo as a whole to potentially, you know, upseat

00:59them and upset them, right?

01:02But I can't do it right now.

01:04I mean, right now, it's the Chiefs are a bust.

01:06We saw them re-sign Kareem Hunt.

01:08We saw them potentially make some defensive moves that could help solidify them.

01:12We know Rasheed Rice is coming back from a major injury, a couple of him with a burner

01:17in Xavier Worthy that came on.

01:20I mean, Ben, I mean, the only team, so it's the Chiefs and everybody else right now.

01:25Which one has the value from the AFC, right?

01:28I think Cincinnati, because of the price.

01:31I think some other teams, again, depending upon where Buffalo goes in the draft, if they

01:36get another big playmaker based off, you know, the draft, a wide receiver to couple with

01:41Josh Farmer, I'm willing to take that shot.

01:44I can't buy into the Chargers right now.

01:47I want to, I think they're an upstart team, but outside of Ladd McConkie, I can't bet

01:52on Quentin Johnston to be the guy in 2025 when he drops half of his passes.

01:57So until we see these free agent moves and NFL draft, it's the Chiefs and everyone else

02:03at this point.

02:05You know what's fascinating, Joe?

02:06And I think you bring up a great point about Kansas City.

02:08One of the crazy things for the Chiefs, yes, they will enter 2025, not as the reigning

02:13Super Bowl champs for the first time since entering the 2023 NFL season, but they're

02:18still the reigning champs around the AFC and they are still the reigning champs for nine

02:22straight years in the AFC West.

02:26And they're a minus money favorite, but last year it was closer to minus 250.

02:30Now it's minus 150.
