Sports Opinion
The Sixth Man
By Ashley Conklin
AFC West
la*s Angeles Raiders The biggest question in linseltt>wn this time ot
year is "Who will start at quarterback ’ Will n he veteran incumbents Marc
Wilson, or Jim Plunkett or second vear nun Rustv Hilgcr' As of now. the
job is still open, but none of the abuse seem to be the one to lead the
Raiders to the Super Bow l
Another concern is the age of the starters on the offensive line, but thev
should continue to be as solid as ever
IVnver Broncos le d bx quarterback John I Iwjv the Broncos will
challenge the Raiders tor the top spot in the AFC West and the AK spot
in the Super Bowl
IVnver boasts perhaps the best secondary in the SI I with Mark Haynes,
louix Wright. IVnms Smith. Steve Foley and Mike Harden
Seattle Seahawks The Seahawks hope that after a disappointing 8 8
season a vear ago, they can return to compete w ith I os Angeles ami IVnver
Curt Warner returned from a knee inpirv the previous season and again
rushed for over I.OUI yards
However, the rest of the rushing game was virtuallv mmexistant The
Seahawks hope that the drafting of John I Williams (Florida) will till that
void
IVfensively. the Seahawks should be as good as ever
San Diego Chargers Once again last season the Chargers were terrific
on offense and horrible on defense
With the drafting ol ( Iklahoma Slate's l eslie < > Neal and the emergence
of third vear plaser le e Williams, the front line should increase last year s
poor sack total of 40
The major concern in the Charger defense is at the hnebac king positions
Where the Raiders need (list a quarterback the Chargers need |usl a
defense
must change The Chiefs need help in the offensive line ami Itnehucktng crew
The Chiefs should be much improved, but it won't be enough in the rough
AFC West
The Broncos. Raiders, and Jets should all challenge tor the API spot in
the Super Bowl Cleveland should also nuke the palvotts ( hhers who should
vie for the final playoff berth will be Miami. New Fngland. and Seattle
