With Week 4 now in the books, and following a truly exciting back-forth between the Detroit Lions and Baltimore Ravens, it is clear that there is one team to rule them all: The Los Angeles Chargers!
Yup! The Bolts!
They just look so dominant and powerful right now, thanks to winning their third straight game vs. another division rival in the Denver Broncos, the Chargers—not the Chiefs—are the team to beat in the AFC west, and possibly the whole league.

32: New Orleans Saints
31: Miami Dolphins
30: New York Giants
29: Tennessee Titans
28: New York Jets
27: Houston Texans
26: Dallas Cowboys
25: Chicago Bears
24: Las Vegas Raiders
23: Atlanta Falcons
22: New England Patriots
21: Carolina Panthers
20: Cleveland Browns
19: Cincinnati Bengals
18: Kansas City Chiefs
17: Washington Commanders
16: Denver Broncos
15: Arizona Cardinals
14: Pittsburgh Steelers
13: Minnesota Vikings
12: Jacksonville Jaguars
11: Baltimore Ravens
10: Tampa Bay Buccaneers
9: Seattle Seahawks
8: Detroit Lions
7: San Francisco 49ers
6: Green Bay Packers
5: Indianapolis Colts
The Colts offense has been DOMINANT. Daniel Jones has (so far) emerged to be a changed man with a new scene. They play the Rams next week. A true test for this offense.
4: Los Angeles Rams
Although they lost to a blocked game winning kick last week in Philly, the Rams put up one heck of a fight. This will be a playoff matchup again. Mark my words.
3: Philadelphia Eagles
Philly has now beaten two 2025 playoff teams in the span of 3 weeks. Holding onto a home win after a wild ending puts them over LA
2: Buffalo Bills
Buffalo took care of business this past Thursday at home vs Miami. Although some would think halfway through that game that it could be a trap game. Broken nose Josh Allen continues to roll
1: Los Angeles Chargers
The Chargers started out the season the best way possible. 3-0. Not just 3-0… all three of those wins are against the entire AFC West! The Chargers are in sync on all phases. Although the loss of Najee Harris will hurt, Herbert does not have a lack of targets.
