The Burrow injury changed it. They looked like they were getting ready to roll again. They did lose to Houston at home but they went into SF and whooped them. That would’ve been the biggest win of the season by anybody.
Burrow injury is part of the problem but the afc as overall has been a complete letdown
Too many injuries on key players
Basically all of the top teams have major weaknesses on their roster (worse than expected)
Chiefs, offense/Wr’s, basically been carried by their defense
Dolphins, mentally weak, zero impressive wins against contenders/top tier teams
Buffalo, again too many injuries on defense+ costly mistakes keep happening
Jaguars, Vikings like pretenders, just haven’t looked dominating at any point of the season
Jets, offensive line even if Rodgers was healthy
Browns, injuries.
None of them are legit Super Bowl caliber teams but likely one of them will end up there
The most dominant teams have been SF& Dallas. AFC doesnt have a single team looking realistically as promising.
Ravens at their best can be there but you want more consistency of elite play
