Scheduletron: Updated strength of schedule
The AFC West has become a contested race, with Kansas City running out of steam and the Chargers surging. Both teams potentially could benefit from easy schedules down the stretch.

Scheduletron: Updated strength of schedule
Week 10 is in the books, so let me offer a re-calibrated look at Strength of Schedule.
