AFC West Division Odds
Kansas City Chiefs Win Division
Kansas City Chiefs
The Kansas City Chiefs have really put an emphasis on grabbing a bull by the horns with six straight division championships. NFL betting sites are expecting them to continue on this route as they are favored to win one more in the 2022-23 season, but this time at +175 odds which is their first time opening above +100 odds in the last four seasons. They have also been one of the most successful teams against the spread during this run going 60-47-3. If you were to have bet $100 on the Chiefs to win the division in each of the last six seasons, you would be up a total of $771.36 with the potential to move up to $906.36 this season.
Los Angeles Chargers
Things are beginning to heat up for the Los Angeles Chargers as their +270 preseason divisional odds are just the third time that they’ve opened under +300 since the 2013 season. They haven’t won the AFC West title since back in 2009 which capped off a four-year winning streak that saw three of the four preseason odds come under +100. There are some high hopes for the Chargers this season, especially behind Justin Herbert who has the fifth shortest odds to win the MVP at +1000, and two defensive powerhouses in Joey Bosa (+1800 DPOY) and Khalil Mack (+4000 DPOY) on the defensive line.
Denver Broncos
Things are starting to heat up for the Denver Broncos after their active offseason that brought them Russell Wilson. Denver had +700 odds of landing Wilson in the offseason and did everything in their power to do so. At their +250 opening odds, it is their shortest since 2016 season as they’ve opened above +400 every year since then. Looking at the last ten seasons, Denver has held their own against AFC West competition with a 33-38 S/U record against division teams.
Las Vegas Raiders
The Las Vegas Raiders believe they have what it takes to not only compete for the division title, but even a Super Bowl. Their opening +650 odds are the first time they’ve opened the division under +1000 in the last five seasons. Also in the last five seasons, they have done a decent job against the spread when facing AFC West opponents at 16-14 for a 53.3% cover rate. With the acquisition of Davante Adams to an already impressive receiving core of Hunter Renfrow and Darren Waller, it makes sense why the internal hope is a division title.
Taking A Futures Bet On The AFC West
There is more to just futures betting on the AFC West winner as you will be able to find tons of futures odds that involve AFC West teams and even players. Those might include their Super Bowl odds, Conference title odds, and odds to win the league MVP. All of which can be bet on all throughout the offseason, regular season, and even the playoffs.

AFC West Teams To Make The Wildcard
Since 2002 the AFC West has only made the Wildcard round eight times. The Chargers, Raiders, and Broncos have each been in the Wild Card Round twice since then while the Chiefs have been three times. One trend to keep in mind is that if one of the AFC West teams makes the Wild Card Round, they have never made it past the divisional round.
