NFL AFC West Week 16 Preview
The season is just about over, and Week 16 of the 2010-11 NFL AFC West gives us a couple of interesting match ups. Among them is my pick for Game of the Week, Indianapolis at Oakland.
Both teams are in must win situations to keep their playoff hope alive. It’s a matchup of air supremacy versus ground supremacy. The Colts rank first in passing while Oakland is second in rushing yards. Two opposing styles are going head to head, and both will be playing to win.
Before we jump into this week’s previews, let’s look at this week’s AFC West leaders.
San Diego’s Phillip Rivers still remains the division’s passing leader with 4,141 yards, while Kansas City’s Jamaal Charles leads all running backs with 1,303 rushing yards, and Denver’s Brandon Lloyd with 1,264 yards receiving. Chiefs’ WR Dwayne Bowe leads the division with 14 touchdowns.
The 38th Ryder Cup will get underway this Friday, October 1 from the Celtic Manor Resort in Newport, South Wales. The three day competition pits the top 12 golfers from the United States against the top 12 golfers from Europe in two rounds of ‘Four-balls’; where the lowest score of the foresome wins the hole, two rounds of ‘Foursomes’; where each twosome plays alternate shots until the ball is holed with the low score winning the hole, and one round of ‘Singles’ on the final day; which consists of straight up competition in a one on one match play format.
With all 32 teams eagerly preparing for the 2010 NFL football season, it is time to take a look at the projected win total for each team to try and determine whether they will go over, stay under, or push. Today we take a look at each team in the AFC West.
