This is an issue I felt needed more awareness and discussion. I'm sure it's something we've all experienced at some point in our lives. It might be something you have experienced personally, or watched a friend/loved one go through.

That something is AFC West Brain.

This condition has no cure that we know of, with no relief in sight. It makes people do awful things such as threatening Ed Hochuli, hating noted cool guy Alex Smith, or even thinking Derek Carr is a good quarterback.

If you suffer from this condition yourself, you would do your peers a huge favor by sharing stories of living with such an ailment. This also goes for people who have experienced AFC West Brain through the suffering of someone they love. I'm sure a lot of us can remember the heartbreak we felt upon seeing a friend with AFC West paraphernalia for the first time.

Thoughts and prayers to those affected. Hopefully we can one day find a cure.

AFC West brain is a real condition that I am afflicted with but I'd like to assert our collective brain superiority over the fake 12s in Seattle that we kicked out.

Raiders fans think Carr is better than Rivers despite his brittle injury prone body. They also thought Bruce Gradkowski was a good qb.

Chiefs fans think Mahomes is better than Rivers despite him never having played in a meaningful game and having an extreme case of Big 12 QB.

Broncos fans are scum

No one thinks Carr is better than Rivers. We are just waiting for Rivers to retire.

Agreed on Broncos.

Gradkowski owns.

The 2009 2-7 Raiders were a garbage organization who had one good player in Nnamdi and a bunch of bad players led by JaMarcus Russell. Some random backup QB comes in to beat pretty good Steelers and Bengals teams in last minute heroics and still it shocks SA2K that he's become folklore taught to young Raiders fans

The more I read this thread the more it becomes apparent that AFC North brain is the true underlying cause

Simply liking a QB because of some fun games is ok and doesn't mean that you insist they're an all time great. And nobody ever said Carr was better than Rivers did you drink too much Zima?

Also, the only other divisions that even come close to the pure hatred that the AFC West has for one another is the AFC North and the NFC East, everyone else please gently caress off with your lovely opinions of superior divisions.

In the most prevalent and severe cases, like you might find in those posting on an internet message board, a crippling brain disorder develops that causes you to repeat the same boring catchphrases ad nauseam, usually seen in fans of teams who haven't won the SB in millennia.

Hey guys asking for a friend

I was a little AFCWEST curious and experimented a bit. Turned on my tv during a Raiders game, went over San Diego’s schedule, picked the Chiefs in a few pick Ems...

But it’s not for me. Just too much anal play. What do i do? Is it possible to convert back?

It sounds like there is a little to much competitiveness in the division for you, not enough of a "sure thing". I would prescribe a dose of staticness. Find a division where the winning team is practically predetermined before the season even starts, and root for one of the other three.

Derek Carr is 1-9 vs the Chiefs and the lone win required like 7 untimed downs at the end, that's pretty cool

But Peters was suspended in the Raiders game last season when Carr went 24/41 with 200 yards and 2 INTs.

Berry and Peters were on the sidelines and Carr still needed 40 attempts to hit 200 yards...is this your king?

Meanwhile I have legitimate reasons to be happy Peters is gone. Rivers had 10 picks last year and six were vs KC. Pretty sure Peters was directly responsible for like 4 of them

To be fair Rivers just loving sucked against KC last year and I don't understand why. Ball out against other teams, then throw lame ducks straight at KC defenders over and over. He's lucky to only have thrown 6 picks in those games.

Not that I'm complaining, he's free to keep that up as long as he wants to.
