Sorry.....but none of the polls and rankings I've seen concur with you, King.

The AFC North has a team that has made the playoffs three out of four years -Cincinnati- the Sb champs - the ravens- and a team that has not missed the playoffs in consecutive years since the ninties -the steelers-. In other words, at the start of the year we have three legitimate playoff contenders...and the Browns. The West has two in KC and Denver. The South has two in Indy and Texas, the East has two in Miami and New England.
I assume they're taking the "the steelers are going to finally fall off and the Ravens lost too much," route, which is strange. The Steelers were supposed to be done several times, dating back to the Cowher regime. It's prudent to assume that they're tough until they aren't, and they had a winning record last year. The Ravens replaced a lot of what they lost, and let's be honest, Lewis was not that great in the end of the year and in the postseason, Reed markedly was worse, etc etc etc. I have more faith in the Ravens, Steelers and Bengals than I do for the Phins and Chiefs.
People all over the league will tell you that the previous season means
nothing to the present season. I'm going by what I see of this year's Chiefs,
not last year's. So go ahead and gauge this year by the previous records.
But, if you don't mind my advice, stay out of Vegas.

top's right, Bo. Though I do miss the days when the AFC West was a dominate division and all the games came down to nail biters.
