7-9 could win the AFC West

There's a parallel forming between the AFC West and the NL West.
It's a division no one should be forced to belong to.
It's entirely possible that someone will win the AFC West with a record that is below .500. Denver took a step in that direction by not showing up for its game with Oakland yesterday. San Diego stayed two games behind by losing to Indianapolis last night.
Denver coach Mike Shanahan may have been right when he guaranteed his team would be in the playoffs. But at 7-9, that's nothing on which to hang a hat.
