NO FOOTBALL ON TUESDAY! WHAT DO I DO?

Don't fret football fans...only two nights away until #14 Georgia Tech plays #20 Miami live on Thursday night. In the meantime, if your still glorifying over the Pats win last night and would love to have that pleasant feeling remain in your beer belly...turn on your tube at 10pm to ESPN2 and watch your NE Pats in the 2002 AFC Championship game in the snow vs. those silly OAK Raiders. I'm sure you'll all remember it distinctly as the 'tuck rule' game.

Enjoy it football fans...before ya know it...it'll be Sunday again.

Hang in there

AFC East Preview

2008 Records:

Miami - 11-5
New England - 11-5
NY Jets - 9-7
Buffalo - 7-9

Miami

The Dolphins were the leagues breakout team last year, but I don't seem them keeping it up. Pennington showed his true colors in the playoffs, and even though I like their running game I don't think they are going to be able to consistently put up points. The defense is solid, and Taylor could be a nice addition, but once again I don't see it as anything special. They are going in the right direction, but I think they take a step back this year.

Prediction - 7-9


New England

Patriots had their heart broken last year when they had 11 wins and somehow didn't make the playoffs. They get Brady back, and if he can stay on the field the offense looks unstoppable. The running game should be improved with Taylor in the mix, and Galloway should help spread the field for Moss and Welker. The defense is suspect after trading away Seymour, but if they stick with a 4-3 like they did for much of the preseason I think they will be good enough when combined with this offense to win game. The key to the season is health...

Predictions - 12-4


NY Jets

They have a good young QB in Sanchez, and a solid defense, so they should be a good team for a long time. Still, they are starting a rookie QB and he is going to have to go through his growing pains, and that will affect their record. I really lke what the Jets did in the offseason, and I really do think a lot of Sanchez. He could have a "Matt Ryan" type of year, but I just don't see them going too far with the Patriots in the same division.

Predictions - 9-7


Buffalo

The Bills in short are a mess. Their offensive line is in shambles, TO is already yelling at the coaches, they fired their offensive coordinator, and Trent Edwards looks like shit. Their defense is OK, but this is going to be a real long year for this team. My prediction is TO goes down for the season by week 6, Edwards is going to have his job in question, and they don't win more then 5 games.

Prediction - 5-11


2009 Standing:

New England - 12-4
