    The better thing is we have two weeks to prepare and are at home...yet we lose in the playoffs...not going to happen. the next week in the AFC championship would be realistic but when you give Belichick two weeks and he's at home to prepare that spells disaster for the opposing team...

    i think its time for the colts, ravens or steelers(only if they can get Ward in camp) to go to the SB and then lose to the panthers

    Same as NFC no way Losman can lead the Bills that far in his first year as a starter.

    You're jumping on that bandwagon too soon - Law hasn't shown anything since he's been injured.

    Just remember - a less experienced in Mularkey and Clements' offensive schemes Bills team almost knocked off the Jets at Giants' stadium. When we played at Buffalo we beat them more convincingly then they beat us. Our D is still gonna be top 5 this year, and the Jets have a tougher road schedule then the Bills do this year (have fun Jets fans).

    BTW - Losman has so far looked better then Bledsoe (yeah, I know it's only preseason, but 4-8 for 27 yards and three sacks by bledsoe - cowboys fans are in for a long season).

    The first thing I see is jumping on bandwagon. TKO you should know all about bandwagons [​IMG] Also the Jets did finish better than the Bills and have just as good as a team as them if not better. So they match up really good agains the Bills.

    Comparing Losman's and Bledsoe's preseason numbers doesn't mean anything. Favre used to play horrible in preseason and he ended up with a couple 30 TD seasons here and there.

    Both Bills and Jets have hard schedules. Nobody plays a harder schedule than the AFC East this season which is why I think Losman is gonna struggle. He plays some good teams all year round.

    The Jets have a steady offense and a good defense. The Bills offense is dependent on how Losman does. That is why i think the Jets will win agianst the Bills

    It's really dependant upon McGahee because they are gonna run a lot but Losman is gonna need to make little mistakes. Thats something I don't think he will do.

    You know it's kind of hard to say what will happen in the AFC East. I like what the Jets, Bills, Pats and Dolphins have to offer this year. But we know one or two has to come out on top.

    Patriots will continue to be a contention team for the SB.

    Jets have a very solid team, but stil a little questioning on Pennington. Injuries, not his ability.

    Bills have a young offense and a solid defense. It's all on how Losman does.

    Dolphins are rebuilding and should be back up to par in a year or two. You never know, they might surprise alot of people this year.


    I just have a feeling the Bills will be very good this year, they finished strong last year and i think the momentum will carry over to this year.

    Same as the Saints...........Momentum

    Comparing the Saints of the last couple of years to the Bills isnt' gonna do TKO any favors. The thing with that momentum. As pointed out by MM i believe they played horrible teams. The best team they played were the Rams 8-8 and Seahawks 9-7 during their run. So the matchups were in their favor.

    The Saints dont have momentum, they lost their momentum when the Jets lost to the Rams in Week 17

    I think defeating a 6-1 Panther team is what will keep their momentum going.

    We'll see.

    I would really like for the Saints to start out with a win against the Panthers, but as long as they play good and keep it close, cancel all mistakes, then i'll be happy with that.

    I know the Saints will kick the sh*t out the Giants in week 2.

    The Saints have a good chance of beating the Giants, but it seems like the saints win and lose a lot of games on long streaks, so the Saints are gonna have to overcome a loss to the panthers
