Playoff Chart Part 2: AFC

Hi, here is my AFC playoff chart:

First Round Bye Teams:
1. Broncos (14-2)
2. Steelers (12-4)
Wildcard Teams:
3. Jaguars (11-5)
4. Chiefs (11-5)
5. Bengals (10-6)
6. Patriots (9-7)

Why: The AFC was a tough division according to my charts. There were a lot of great teams in the mix but these were the teams I had winning the most games. The teams are pretty much the same as last year except the Jaguars are the only new team. The Broncos should be the best team in the AFC. They will have someone at QB, John Elway will find someone and that even could be Paxton Lynch right away or Colin Kapernic or maybe even Sam Bradford. QB is a very important position but with their amazing D, it doesn't matter as much, Von Miller, Bradley Robey, Aquib Talib, Chris Harris Jr., DeMarcus Ware, and the most of the other good Broncos defenders will be returning next season, they should be undefeated for most of the season but they won't go all the way. The Steelers have an easy schedule. I think they will win their division and take the 2nd bye week spot. The Steelers will have pretty much everyone back plus I think that their speedy LB Bud Dupree will have a breakout season. Antonio Brown is the best WR in many people's eyes and Big Ben should be back up and running. Martavis Bryant is suspended but I don't think that will matter much. Even though Le'Veon Bell is back, if he were to get injured again, the Steelers have a good shot with DeAngelo Williams who showed his amazingness while Bell was injured this season. The Jags had a great year this past year and with all of their amazing off-season moves, the Jags should comeback this year. Dante Fowler, Malik Jackson, Telvin Smith, and Myles Jack are all star defenders who will rule the defensive line. Then Prince Amukamara and Jalen Ramsey will be back in the secondary. Their D should be amazing and their O should be great with the Allen Robinson/Allen Hurns duo getting lots of receptions from breakout QB Blake Bortles, or he could handoff to Chris Ivory or T.J. Yeldon, two star running backs the Jags have. They should be set up for a big season. The Chiefs were great this past year and with almost everyone coming back, plus rookies, they should be great. Alex Smith lead the Chiefs to a great playoff run this past season and he showed off his great arm and his QB speed. Jeremy Maclin was a great WR and he should be productive this next season again, also Travis Kelce is back and this year they should have Jamaal Charles for the whole season! Their D was great lead by Marcus Peters and Eric Berry who should probably be good again. The Bengals had a decent season and I think that they will be back to the playoffs with an easy schedule. Andy Dalton will be back at starter and hopefully the Bengals put in Jeremy Hill over Giovani Bernard because in my opinion, Bernard has no talent and shouldn't start over a talented back like Hill. A.J. Green should be good as ever next season and I think that the Bengals D could be decent. Andy Dalton was great this season until he got injured and now with him back, the Bengals should be making the playoffs. The Patriots should barely make the playoffs for the first time in forever. With Tom Brady suspended the first few games, they should start off 1-3 which isn't good, then I don't think they will be as good as last season but I still think they will win their division and still make the playoffs. With Dion Lewis back at running back and Rob Gronkowski and Julian Edleman being great pass catchers, which ever QB that throws to them should no matter because of their skills, their D isn't very quality but I think it will be good enough for them to make the playoffs.

That is my AFC playoff chart!
