2) Even saying the Raiders will win the division seems a bit of a stretch, possible, but not the most likely outcome.

3) JC could be in a good position if Denver implodes and KC stays down as expected.

I understand all that, but it is all about perception, especially in the media. You know if my scenario does happen(JC in the playoffs, McNabb out) that some boneheads will question the move to get Donovan, and all that crap. The AFC West sucks monkey balls. THe Skins could easily win that division right now, but might end up as low as 3 in the NFC East in '10.

Whoever wins the AFC West is likely one-and-done in the playoffs, making the point kind of moot.

True, but to the media whores, that won't matter if the Skins don't. They want to make a story and stir up shit.

Yup.
