00:00Let's take a look real quick at the odds to win the AFC and where the shifting has happened
00:09over on the FanDuel Sportsbook.
00:10The Chiefs have become a little bit more of a favorite.
00:12Houston is hanging tough where they were.
00:14Baltimore fell back a little bit.
00:16Buffalo moved up slightly.
00:17The Jets fell back a little bit.
00:19Miami moved up a little bit.
00:21Cincinnati moved down to 11-1.
00:25But there wasn't a massive overreaction.
00:27I've seen overreactions to the games this week, Mike.
00:30I didn't see much of one over on FanDuel to win the AFC.
00:35And at least that makes me confident that what we thought going in, probably we should
00:38give a little bit more time before we react to that.
00:42Yeah, although I would say that, again, I think it's more about who's in there and has
00:47decent odds than it is about KC.
00:50KC is a strong favorite.
00:52It doesn't mean they necessarily get it done.
00:55Right now, what Kansas City is building is similar to what Pittsburgh built in the 70s.
01:01And even in the core of that dynasty, when they won 74-75, 76, they had injuries, 77,
01:08they weren't very effective, and then 78-79, they come back and do it again.
01:13So injuries and elements such as that can have a significant impact on whether or not
01:20a team goes on.
01:21So at that number for Kansas City, it's really hard to get excited about them.
01:27But to put Buffalo in at the number that they are, obviously fantastic.
01:33But this is not as strong a Buffalo team as what we saw in the past.
01:38And I think it's a fantasy.
01:40There was nothing on Monday night that suggested they're going to be special.
01:44I understand Aaron Rodgers has been extraordinary.
01:47I don't know if he's extraordinary now.
01:50It's still possible, but I just don't see the Jets being involved in that at all.
01:55It doesn't make any sense.
01:57The Texans are the team that has a chance to make the biggest jump, to go from really,
02:04really good last year, in their first year with the new quarterback, to perhaps special.
02:11And they weren't special in week one, but we'll see if they can manage that.
