    alright, for those of you who have been here longer n me, you would remember i did this last year, where i took each division and took you views on it.

    so heres the AFC East(BTW, i hope i get division names right this time, lol)

    whos gonna win, whats gonna be different this year?

    personally, regardless of the huge amount of $ given to brady, i feel the Patriots will dominate yet again.

    so i think something like this wll happen.(no records for me)

    Pats
    Bils
    Jets
    Dolphins.

    dolphins will be marginally better than last year, but still, one of the worst in the league.

    Bills are the only team that has a chance to overtake the Patriots for the division title...but that would take a miracle...or Tom Brady getting hurt. Or both.

    Patriots all the way.

    I think The Phins will suprise everyone. I'm not talking bout taking down Pats, but they will be better than everyone thinks

    typical every year they put down the Jets....every year, last year too they sucked last year remember and look they beat the Steelers and got to the semi finals in the playoffs (the doug brien thing never happened i'm convinced its a dream), they'll be just as good PLUS their new offensive coordinator will be great for them hes getting out of the conservative shit and think the Titans offense a few years ago plus last years Jets defense. I'd say a close 2nd and far into the playoffs.

    One of the toughest divisions to guess in football. I can't see the Dolphins turning it around in one season, so I will say that they will be the least likely to win the division. Buffalo really came on strong at the end and the Jets played well most of the season. Both will challenge the Champs and both will fall short.

    With Losman taking over in Buffalo, I cant see the Bills making any noise this year. He just seems too skittish. I think that the Jets will finally take over the division, mainly because they have Coles back, and a better back up RB in Blaylock. Their defensive backfield scares me a bit, mainly because if Donnie Abraham retires, they will have nobody available to step up. But the front 7 is solid enough to compensate.

    Ya the Jets and Chad "all I do is throw picks against the pats" Pennington will win the division...LOL Coles is a nice upgrade to moss but I'm sorry but the pats have made better receivers than coles look avg at best so I'm not to worried about him either. Personally the Jets will again finish second and mainly because buffalo has Losman at QB which will be an adventure at best epecially in probably the toughest division..on the defensive side...in football. Another season in the sun for the Pats and until Pennington gets some arm strength he is going to continue to look terrible in big games.

    This division is New England's to lose. Miami should win 7. I, personally, don't expect a Charger like turnaround. Appearantly, Houck is working wonders w/ the OL so far and that IMO is the key to Miami's success.

    As for the other 2, I have not seen significant strides being made to overtake the Pats. I wonder if Pennington has the arm strength to succeed in Heimerdinger's offense.

    Strangely, Feeley has more game experience than Losman. As I understand, Buffalo's OL is not all that great.

    yea i dont see the Bills doing anything they are a good team but with Losman there plus some bad holes they wont win. The Jets are gonna be a great team they will let up some bad plays with their bad secondary but hopefully Donnie Abraham stays and they resign Jon Abraham. I truely dont think that they will beat out the Pats unfortunatly they are just a bit too good. But i do think it will be close maybe one or two games back and the team that does come in 2nd will make the wildcard

    Having Coles back will help. Blaylock is NOT better than Lamont Jordan. Ferguson signed w/ Dallas & I believe Josh Evans retired so DT is once again a weakness. That kid they drafted out of Kentucky is not living up to expectations.

    yea i forgot to mention that Lamont Jordan is much better than Blaylock (notice Jordan has a starting job this year with the Raiders) Jordan was a force and i wished he would have stayed but i understand y he didnt Hes gonna be a great starter and i was hoping he would have started for the Jets ina couple of years. o well

    I guess its safe to say that I saw Blaylock play more than I saw Jordan play. I thought Blaylock looked pretty sharp backing up Holmes last year.

    Pats win the division, but come down closer to reality.

    Pats - Hey I'm not picking against them, although I don't think they will be dominant this year
    Bills - If Losman can play the Bills will look good.
    Jets - Just miss the playoffs
    Dolphins - I would feel much better about this team with a new QB
