After a hot 3-0 start to the season, the Los Angeles Chargers have dropped their last two games to fall to 3-2. An embarrassing 27-10 loss on Sunday to the Washington Commanders could serve as a wake up call, as the Bolts no longer have a commanding lead in the AFC West.

They're still in first place for now, but could quickly lose their top spot if they don't get back in the win column as soon as possible. Here's the division power rankings heading into Week 6.

4. Las Vegas Raiders

After winning in Week 1, the Raiders have lost every game since and sit at 1-4. They were manhandled by the Indianapolis Colts 40-6 on Sunday and host the Tennessee Titans this week.

3. Kansas City Chiefs

Trouble in paradise? The Chiefs lost in a thrilling Monday night game to the Jacksonville Jaguars 31-28. It doesn't get any easier, as they'll host the Detroit Lions on Sunday night.

2. Denver Broncos

Since their loss to the Chargers three weeks ago, the Broncos have rattled off two straight wins to climb back into the AFC West race early. They might have another win coming up, as they're set to face the winless New York Jets in London.

1. Los Angeles Chargers

As previously stated, the Chargers need to pick it up. They may get that chance as they head to Miami this Sunday for a matchup with the Dolphins.
