The AFC East is wide open. The team that can win on the road (something the Pats were incapable of last year) will win the division. @NYJ and @MIA will be the two biggest games of the year, IMO.

No, the division is not wide open. The patriots are hands down the best team and will easily win the division while sweeping the division games.


I hope.

I agree. The two heaviest guys pick the Pats 2nd. Our three is stuck with Clayton.

We will know all we need to know by week 3.

The Benglas will test our secondary, and Jets will test our front 7. The Offense shouldn't have too many problems keeping defenses off balance, and the real test will be week 2 against the Jets, but the Bengals should also provide us with a challenging D to see if we can confuse.

I have no worries about our offense. Any confusion will be for opposing D's - - there are simply too many weapons for Brady to use now.

I just see alot of 45-38 games this year.

I look at the defense and I don't know what to think. Lots of talent, lots of inexperience, lots of new faces, lots of questions. I'm optimistic, but also prepared for a roller coaster.

But then, then I look at the offense. Patriots got the division, no doubt about it!

I don't think we will know all by week 3. I expect the young defense has a LOT of room to grow and probably won't look the same in the last 1/4 of the season as they will in the first 1/4.
