Predicting every AFC West game

The Chiefs and Chargers have battle-tested defenses and quarterbacks that are unfazed by the idea of going toe-to-toe with Peyton Manning down the stretch, and the Raiders are methodically working their way up to respectability with back-to-back promising drafts. Will Gary Kubiak be able to keep the Broncos on top and get Manning in range of another shot at a second Super Bowl ring?
