I think a team under the radar this year is the New York Jets. They picked up a underrated back, Thomas Jones, who all he does is gain 1400 yds. every year. Running the football was a glaring problem on that team last year....
I don't know too much about their defense, I know they kept Vilma but lost guys like Abraham. Pennington looked strong in some games last year and the team did end up winning 10 games. As pats fans you'd hate to think their was another team in the AFC east that could compete with us, but I think if not this year, the Jets will be competing (11-13 wins) in this next year or so...
Does anyone else feel the same way?
Oh yeah, and Miami and Buffalo will be trash this year....

Why?? Why dude?? Why would you ruin my Friday with this Jets garbage......why do I have to type this in again? The jets no longer have a last place schedule and a Kerry Collins-led Titans team to barely beat...it doesn't matter how many boxing coaches Mangyna brings in, the jets will not have a better record than the pats this upcoming year...in fact the jets will not even match last years record, and Ill make a 50 dollar charity bet with any jets fan (only 1 fan) that wants to take my bet!

I don't...I really think they'll take a step or two back this year..usually when a team surprises one year, the next misses the mark. I KNOW many think they;ll just improve by a few games..but I just do not see it at all. They had very few injuries last year and seemed to hit the perfect wave with very few obstacles. Not happening this year.
I think you need to bring more to the table than misrepresenting Thomas Jones rushing stats, and saying you dont know anything about their defense to predict a marked improvement in the team.
They were about the worst team in the NFL 2 years ago, and improved to a nice season last year. That wasnt with 53 new players. They still have issues on their roster,some of which were masked by the schedule and good luck with injuries.

IMO, they are basically an entirely average team. Average teams don't usually stay average, they go one way or the other, but there isn't any more evidence that they will become a juggernaut than there is that they will fall apart and be rebuilding all over again in 2010.
Jets will finish 8-8 at best this year. They will take a step back now that they have a tougher schedule. They may play better, but end up with a worse record. Either way, no playoffs for them (or anyone besides the Pats in the AFCE).

I understand...I was just saying its a possibility that they could be decent this year.

Jones had much better blocking in Chicago. He will be getting wrapped up behind the line up scrimmage much more now. Jets have no offensive line, Chad sucks, and a questionable defense. They are at best a 10 - 6 team.
They are a better team this year then last, but a tougher schedule so their record should be similar.
I dont think anyone on the board (whos a Pats fan) thinks the Jets have a chance to achieve a better record then the Pats this year.
