Wow guys...Miami 3-13? 5-11? Seriously?

Vegas lines show:

New England - 11 wins
Miami - 8 wins
Bills - 6 wins
Jets - 6 wins

Is Vegas perfect? Of course not, but it's about big money, and they're generally fairly close. I tend to agree with them with a little wiggle room, so I'm looking at the following:

New England - 11-5 (possibly 12-4)
Miami 10-6 (possibly 9-7)
Bills - 8-8 (possibly 7-9)
Jets - 5-11 (possibly 4-12)

The possibles show gut feeling if division game gremlins show up, and New England has earned the upside...the others haven't. Good thing they gotta play the games!! Here's to a healthy, good, competitive, entertaining season and a solid showing from the good old AFC East!

Look at the post date, those predictions were made last year.

Doh!

Thread was toward the top, assumption blown!

Guess those were pretty far off.

Jets are going to win the AFC East. The Jets wildcat offense will help win the time of possession. Also the Jets defense will be vastly improved. Sanchez will eventually get benched and Tebow will take over full time.
You Pats are used to walking all over the AFC East. Well now the AFC East teams will be stronger. Jets will boast one of the best if not the best defense with one of the leagues leading rush game with tebow. Buffalo is up and coming. THey have put together a good defense and the offense is already solid. Miami? Well we will see they are very young.

My evaluation of the Pats. Well sure Brady will probably still be good. Bellicheck is still the hoody. To me the running game,defense and Oline are suspect. Bellicheck did a good job drafting defensive prospects this year. Will they pan out? I probably think they will pan out in a few years. Not in one year though. So basically Brady will lead a high powered passing game, a running game that only exists because teams dont stack the box, shaky Oline and a newly built defense.

Jets 11 wins Pats 10 wins.

I normally avoid bringing ancient threads back to life, but since it was already done I can't resist the temptation to revisit these two predictions/comments. :yo:


However, since this is a thread speculating what would happen in the then-upcoming 2012 season, I'll go ahead and close this thread in order to avoid any further confusion.
