I know some can't stand Florio (personally I enjoy PFT and think Florio knows his football), but for what it's worth he predicts that the Jets will be on the outside looking in at the Patriots in the playoffs.
When picking AFC playoff teams, Phil Simms plays it very safe | ProFootballTalk.com
I guess he's not all that impressed with Rex the Hutt Ryan's bravado
Of course, let's not kid ourselves. Two things Florio loves to do is rile up Patriots and Jets fans, for the sole purpose of driving hits on his website up. In this case he's doing that AND hawking his NFL Preview Magazine... what better way to do it by making just this sort of prediction. Still, he could have easilly made the prediction go the other way, and didn't - giving the Pats the thumbs up instead of the Jets.
During the first half of Saturday night's preseason game between the Cowboys and the Texans, CBS analyst Phil Simms offered up his picks for the 2010 playoff field. In the AFC, he selected the same six who made it a year ago: the Jets, Bengals, Colts, Chargers, Patriots, and Ravens.
I'm not knocking Simms. I applied a similar approach in my picks for the PFT Season Preview magazine. In the NFC, my six-team field matches Simms'. In the AFC, I dropped the Bengals and the Jets and included the Texans and the Dolphins.
