8-9 last year despite all the turmoil. Best defense in the league after AP took over.
Most of the important guys are back, plus we've added JPJ, Bowers, and Wilkens, who should all be high-level contributors immediately.
I also think the AFC West is going to be a lot softer than people seem to expect.
Would be nice to see. Lots of good teams in AFC though.

The three almost sure losses are going to be at Ravens, at Bengals, and at Dolphins. Those are all early games, which the Raiders always seem to lose.
Do the 49ers have a hard time in those East Coast morning games?

I am sure you would be happy if they split with they Chiefs.
49ers are hit or miss with east coast games. I have seen them dominate and seen them struggle so can't really say either way. Maybe depending on the week in the season, how much travel they have had recently and how banged up they are.
