# Nick Wright: Going through AFC win totals, Nick Wright leans over on Buffalo, Denver, Kansas City and Jacksonville, calls Miami a two-win disaster, pegs New England as a nine-win team and Tennessee at six or seven, and picks Bills, Ravens, Jaguars and Chiefs to win the four AFC divisions. **Claimed:** Mar 20, 2026 **Pundit:** Nick Wright — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/pundits/nick-wright **Outlet:** The Herd with Colin Cowherd (podcast) — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/outlets/the-herd-with-colin-cowherd-podcast **How it reached us:** said on air or in an interview **Original:** https://omny.fm/shows/whats-wright-with-nick-wright/nick-wright-predicts-afc-mahomes-chiefs-will-be-back-bills-ravens-over-win-totals-nfl 11 checkable claims — 7 season win totals and 4 division winners — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing bet. It names 8 players and teams, each linked to their own record. None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in. Of the 6 unsettled calls enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands above the room on 2 and below it on 4. > They're still the best team in that division. That's an over for me. *(their words, quoted for attribution)* ## The claims - **Tennessee Titans to finish with 6–7 wins** - Kind: Season Win Totals · About: Tennessee Titans - Verdict: not settled yet - **Kansas City Chiefs to finish with 11 wins** - Kind: Season Win Totals · About: Kansas City Chiefs - Verdict: not settled yet - **Buffalo Bills to win the division** - Kind: Division Winners · About: Buffalo Bills - Verdict: not settled yet - **New England Patriots to finish with 9 wins** - Kind: Season Win Totals · About: New England Patriots - Verdict: not settled yet - **Kansas City Chiefs to win the division** - Kind: Division Winners · About: Kansas City Chiefs - Verdict: not settled yet - **Baltimore Ravens to win the division** - Kind: Division Winners · About: Baltimore Ravens - Verdict: not settled yet - **Jacksonville Jaguars to finish with 10 wins** - Kind: Season Win Totals · About: Jacksonville Jaguars - Verdict: not settled yet - **Buffalo Bills to finish with 11 wins** - Kind: Season Win Totals · About: Buffalo Bills - Verdict: not settled yet - **Denver Broncos to finish with 10 wins** - Kind: Season Win Totals · About: Denver Broncos - Verdict: not settled yet - **Jacksonville Jaguars to win the division** - Kind: Division Winners · About: Jacksonville Jaguars - Verdict: not settled yet - **Miami Dolphins to finish with 2 wins** - Kind: Season Win Totals · About: Miami Dolphins - Verdict: not settled yet ## Who this take is about - Tennessee Titans — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/teams/titans - Kansas City Chiefs — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/teams/chiefs - Buffalo Bills — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/teams/bills - New England Patriots — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/teams/patriots - Baltimore Ravens — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/teams/ravens - Jacksonville Jaguars — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/teams/jaguars - Denver Broncos — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/teams/broncos - Miami Dolphins — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/teams/dolphins ## What others said about the same people - Nathan Jahnke on Ameer Abdullah: An unsigned PFF preseason recap makes numerous depth-chart, roster and usage projections across the league, based on Week 3 preseason playing time — including Roman Wilson winning Pittsburgh's third receiver job, Luke McCaffrey's roster spot being in danger, Charlie Kolar as the Chargers' top tight end, and Kendre Miller as the Saints' RB2. — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/opinions/47566b48-8024-4960-b25c-11c03fe43543 (scored 100) - Nathan Jahnke on Elijah Sarratt: PFF's preseason fantasy recap makes a series of depth-chart, roster and usage projections based on final-week preseason snap counts, including Ja'Kobi Lane locking down the Ravens' third receiver role, Luke McCaffrey's roster spot being in danger, Kyle Pitts facing reduced 12-personnel usage, Kendre Miller as the Saints' RB2 and Emmett Johnson as the Chiefs' backup running back. — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/opinions/265cbdba-b0e0-4f80-9665-a4ca5aaec53e (scored 100) - Randy Gurzi on Ar'maj Reed-Adams: Gurzi predicts the Buffalo Bills' final 53-man roster ahead of Week 1 against Houston, naming every player who makes it, who gets cut, and a few depth-chart outcomes (Damar Hamlin as backup safety, Alec Anderson as a new starter on the offensive line, Shane Buechele back on the practice squad). — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/opinions/95db61d4-3514-4d17-aa02-ed56a31ecabf (scored 0) - Spenny Powers on Ethan Burke: Powers says undrafted edge Ethan Burke's traits should earn him a spot on the Ravens' roster. — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/opinions/723dcbbd-0d10-422d-8204-30701b3f5dff (scored 100) - Ethan Hurwitz on Christian Gonzalez: Hurwitz says several Patriots starting jobs and roster spots are already settled — Drake Maye at QB with Jared Wilson at center, A.J.
