# 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.co/pundits/nick-wright **Outlet:** The Herd with Colin Cowherd (podcast) — https://missedtakes.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.co/nfl/teams/titans - Kansas City Chiefs — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/chiefs - Buffalo Bills — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/bills - New England Patriots — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/patriots - Baltimore Ravens — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/ravens - Jacksonville Jaguars — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/jaguars - Denver Broncos — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/broncos - Miami Dolphins — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/dolphins ## What others said about the same people - Chris Simms on Kansas City Chiefs: Simms went through the entire Week 3 slate with straight-up winners and predicted final scores, taking Jacksonville, Buffalo, Cincinnati, Detroit, Houston, Carolina, Kansas City, Seattle, the Giants, Baltimore, New Orleans, Minnesota, San Francisco, Denver and Philadelphia.

He picked an Eagles–Chiefs Super Bowl with Philadelphia repeating, Joe Burrow for MVP, and gave a top-five power ranking. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/ec43b02b-8e3a-4b2e-8c36-1839c9c52e3c (scored 40) - John Middlekauff on San Francisco 49ers: Middlekauff says Denver's floor is ten wins, predicts Miami implodes to four or five wins and a top-three-or-four draft slot with Tyreek Hill traded, thinks the 49ers beat expectations with nine or ten wins, sees the Patriots at eight or nine wins, calls the Chargers over 9.5 a lock, expects Jared Goff to make five or six Pro Bowls, and says the Packers are flying under the radar. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/af06c2e6-9beb-4a7e-b444-620680dbccd1 (scored 60) - Richard Sherman on Detroit Lions: Sherman picks the Chiefs to beat the Bills in the AFC Championship Game despite Buffalo's turnover dominance, and picks the Commanders to upset the Eagles in Philadelphia in the NFC Championship Game.
