AFC West The AFC West is a division of the National Football League ' s American Football Conference , currently comprising the Denver Broncos , San Diego Chargers , Kansas City Chiefs , and the Oakland Raiders . History . The division was formed in 1960 as the American Football League ' s Western Division . In 1970 , as part of the new NFL ' s two - conference , six - division alignment , the AFL West entered the merged league more or less intact as the AFC West . The original AFL West had four members – the Dallas Texans ( which moved to Kansas City in 1963 as the Chiefs ) , Denver Broncos , Los Angeles Chargers ( which moved to San Diego in 1961 ) and Oakland Raiders . These four teams have remained in the AFL / AFC West since its inception , and are currently the only teams in the division . Largely because of this , the entire division is considered one very large and very heated rivalry . When the Raiders played in Los Angeles from 1982 to 1994 , they remained in the AFC West . The Cincinnati Bengals played the last two AFL seasons in the AFL West , moving to the AFC Central ( formerly the NFL Century , now the AFC North ) in 1970 . Each of the four AFC West teams won a division title in the first four years of the realignment – Oakland in 2002 , Kansas City in 2003 , San Diego in 2004 and Denver in 2005 . It is the only one of the eight NFL divisions to have all of its teams win titles in the first four seasons of the North - East - West - South format . ESPN ' s Chris Berman often calls this division the " AFC Smythe " due to its geographical similarity to the old Smythe Division of the NHL , now succeeded by the Pacific and Northwest divisions . In recent years , the division is often cited as one of the NFL ' s " Toughest Divisions " due partially to the home - field advantages of Invesco Field , Arrowhead Stadium , Qualcomm Stadium and the Oakland Coliseum ( The Black Hole ) , although in 2008 the division was the NFL ' s weakest since the AFC Central in 1985 by sending the San Diego Chargers to the playoffs as division winners with an 8 – 8 record while the New England Patriots missed out at 11 – 5 after losing out on tiebreakers for both the AFC East and the wild - card .
