AFC West standings

As the 2024 football season approaches, notable PSAC quarterbacks Brayden Long from Slippery Rock and Judd Novak from Kutztown are expected to garner attention for the Harlon Hill Trophy due to their impressive past performances. Kutztown, fresh off a successful 12-win season and a conference championship, will face Shepherd, who is looking to bounce back after a tough playoff loss to Lenoir-Rhyne. In the NFL, the Colts, led by quarterback Anthony Richardson, are seen as potential underdogs with favorable betting odds, especially after a strong 2023 season despite Richardson's injuries. Meanwhile, Super Bowl 59 odds indicate the Kansas City Chiefs are strong contenders, bolstered by a talented roster and a history of playoff success. The AFC North is highlighted as the toughest division, with all teams boasting competitive odds and a strong performance history, particularly with the Ravens and Bengals leading the charge. As training camps commence, the landscape for both college and professional football is shaping up to be highly competitive.
