KCF0107 05/01/17 6:54:21 PM #3:	AFC East 1. Miami Dolphins 2. New York Jets 3. Buffalo Bills 4. New England Patriots The Dolphins should still have enough to win the division for a seventh time. After seasons of the division weaknening, last year was arguably the best from the AFC East. Three teams had their best win-loss record and the Jets peripherals were that of a team close to .500. Retirements weren't kind to anyone, especially the Dolphins who lost three 90+ members of their secondary. Taking over starting jobs are three 1st round picks, CB Antonio Cromartie, CB Joe Haden, and SS Antoine Bethea. The rest of the team is essentially the same, but as long as those aforementioned three pull their weight, a division crown seems to be more likely than missing the playoffs altogether. I am still not giving up on the Jets. This is a team that never had a losing season and were coming off two seasons in which they made the AFC Championship and the Super Bowl before two 5-11 campaigns. They had an underrated draft last season, and they replaced their (aka my) free agent mistake QB Matt Leinart with the man who beat them in the Super Bowl, Drew Brees. 14 of their starters are under 30, and as long as they do not face any setbacks developing or with injuries, they could be in the running for as high as AFC East champions. The Bills are on paper a worse team across the board than they were last season. They went 11-5 in the regular season last year, so even a slight drop might put them to 9-7 and certainly remain in the playoff discussion. They escaped the preseason without an injury and start the season on a four-game homestand, so their pursuit of another playoff berth will begin in their favor. The Patriots, then Cougars, went 9-7 after being propped up by their defense. While it remains roughly the same and an influx of new starters on both sides of the ball, they are still low on talent relative to the rest of the division and league. While I see them dropping back to a losing record this season, Lady Luck could once again smile upon them again. Just please don't let it be at the Dolphins' expense. --- KCF can't actually be a real person but he is - greengravy http://i.imgur.com/VfpY7tg.jpg <cite>KCF0107 posted [p:878283862] in Board 8 Na...
