Today, I take a look at the AFC East!
The AFC East is the home of the Buffalo Bills, Miami Dolphins, New England Patriots and the New York Jets.
New York Jets:
This may be the year of the Jets. They should win the AFC East by a game over the Patriots. This will be an exciting race. Look for the Jets to end the regular season at 12-4. Shonn Greene and LaDainian Tomlinson will give the Jets a great one-two in the running game. The defense is tough, but the Jets will need to get Darrelle Revis on the field to be their best. Look for another strong playoff run from the Jets. Happy times in NYC for the Jets faithful.
New England Patriots:
They aren’t going away and will make the playoffs at 11-5. Tom Brady has some fuel left in the tank and if Wes Welker is healthy, they will be right there (behind the Jets) all the way. Second year WR Julian Edelman has added another weapon to the already potent passing game. If Edelman and Welker stay healthy, they will be tough in their passing game.
Miami Dolphins:
After finishing 7-9 in 2009, look for the Dolphins to come in at 8-8 or 9-7 and probably out of the playoffs. Some folks are thinking three teams will make the playoffs from the AFC East, but I don’t see it.
Buffalo Bills:
They are not a bottom dweller in the NFL, but they just can’t seem to get over the hump to make it to .500. This may be their year, but they will finish last in the AFC East at 8-8 and the AFC East will be one of the better divisions (wins/losses) in the NFL.
