The Jets will finish last in the AFC East, not 2nd as many are predicting. They're the only team in the division that is NOT stacked on defense. Pennington or no Pennington, they won't overcome that.
I don't buy the Seattle hype. They'll win the division by default, but too soft up the middle on defense to be a serious contender.
I do buy the Minnesota hype. For the first time in my 24 year lifetime, they may actually have a servicable defense.
Don't sleep on Carolina - they're still better than Philly.
The Rams window is officially shut. Wildcard if they're lucky this year.
The Lions will improve, but not as much as everybody seems to think.
The Dolphins will get worse, but not as much as everyone seems to think.
The Jaguars will improve, probably as much as everyone seems to think.
The Raiders will surprise some people, maybe even steal the division. I like their defense, plus the Chiefs & Broncos are overrated.
Kyle Boeller, more so than any other player, will determine his team's success. Ravens could win the SB if he steps up with a decent year.
I still say 9-7 and barely out of the playoffs for the Bills. Although this year could be a golden opportunity to make a run, since the Fish & Jets will be down, and the Pats will hopefully lose some hunger. After that - who knows - the rest of the AFC doesn't scare me that much. It's just too hard to be optimistic with an OL that has stunk for 9 consecutive years.
