EastCoastNiner Posted August 20, 2010 Report Share Posted August 20, 2010 Well, the first team offense looked very good. Fred Taylor really impressed me along, and Aaron Hernandez played well. It was good that Brady threw to Welker multiple times early on. The first team defense looked very good as well. The Gostkowski penalty was a bad call, but I'm glad the offense got back on the field and made the Falcons pay. This team looks for real this year, so the people on the Jets nuts may be in for a long season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Great iBoldin Posted August 20, 2010 Report Share Posted August 20, 2010 I think the Jets finish third in the division, and Miami wins the division. Just a hunch, especially if the corner tandem plays physical and the linebackers are allowed to make plays, the offense will get the job done. Everyone is criminally underrating the Dolphins, besides their fans. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fish7718 Posted August 20, 2010 Report Share Posted August 20, 2010 I think the Jets win the division but Miami will be right there. I don't think the Pats will even compete. At best I see them 8-8. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At best I see them 8-8. I'm just going to watch this season unfold, and watch the excuses at the end of the season for some of your predictions. The Patriots look sharp. Their offense and defense is improved from last season, in which they won the AFC East. Tom Brady is finally healthy. I think they'll win the division pretty easily, and probably by 2-3 games. Also, Tom Brady will win the MVP, but keep hatin! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pats are all old, Miami and NY are both younger and better. Pats were 2-6 on the road last year and their only wins were against Tampa and Buffalo .

The Great iBoldin Posted August 20, 2010 Report Share Posted August 20, 2010 They can look as sharp as they want all pre-season, because it doesn't mean anything. It carries no bearing over to the regular season. The defense is in a transition, the defensive line is older and Wilfork isn't what he used to be after his big contract dispute. Where is the pass rush going to come from? Can the corners step up and compete? I'm not too worried about the offense, but in the New England cold when the defense needed a stop (Baltimore in last years playoffs) they never got it and it could come back to repeat itself. The Patriots have very legitimate questions about their roster and team. Miami and New York could easily overtake them. They won't win the division by three games.

They're "old" offense has only been one of the top offenses in the NFL for the past five years, and their defense is actually very YOUNG. People keep thinking that the defense is old, which it used to be, but no longer is. WilforkMayoSpikesMerriweatherChungMcCourty None of them are old, and will all be starters on the defense. I wouldn't be surprised if the defense struggled, and I hate making predictions about the Patriots, but they will win the division by 2-3 games.

The Great iBoldin Posted August 20, 2010 Report Share Posted August 20, 2010 No team in a division like that will win by 2-3 games though, it's just not going to happen, there are three legitimate playoff teams in there. That's why I'm going to enjoy watching that division all year long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I'm going to enjoy watching that division all year long. It's going to be a 2007-esque season for the Patriots, so they will win it by 2-3 games. They look extremely sharp, and Brady is still waiting for a contract. The defense is younger than it has been in recent years, and has learned a lot since last season. This pre-season, Bill Belichick spent more time with the defense than he has spent with his defense over the past five years or so. I believe in the Dolphins a lot more than I believe in the Jets.

Wilfork is 29 btw, he's getting old. Edited August 20, 2010 by Fish7718 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Regime Posted August 21, 2010 Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 (edited) The Bengals offensively have looked like trash this preseason, the TO signing isn't going to pay off like I expected, atleast that's what it has looked like thus far.

Phightins Posted August 21, 2010 Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 WTF is with the Eagles o-line? Line up right, its not that hard. Guys with very little experience, guys playing out of position, and guys who frankly should not be on an NFL roster. Jason Peters is the most frustrating one though. Luckily it is just the preseason and we should be getting some healthy bodies back soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
