    aha that would be a waste of my money. as a jets fan, i'm glad that they're getting better, but so are the dolphins, and the bills are doing things as well too i guess. pats are still the defending champions and have a fairly easy schedule, but the jets do as well. feel slightly confident in them winning 9+ with this roster, but also feel the pats might go 12-4/13-3. afc east should be a very tough division a year from now

    We had a great Draft, one of the best in awhile.. hope we realistically have a good season.

    I love what the Pats are did to fill the needs after the Browner/Revis departures...

    Their defensive line should be amazing to watch this year... They have so many pass rushers and run stoppers on the defensive line. Hopefully it'll help the secondary..

    I kind of hope the sign Brandon Spikes again, to add depth at linebacker...

    jets defense is going to be scary. boles is a defensive coach and more importantly, they have the talent/personnel. only thing that could hurt them is being on the field a lot because their offense is obviously questionable. but still, they're going to be tough on defense regardless.

    Suh AND leonard williams entered that division in the off-season........new england better beef up their offensive line lol

    Chris Johnson apparently wants to come to Dallas.... I'm actually open to that idea. He's 29, has rushed for 1,000+ yards in each of his last 3 seasons, knows what it's like to carry a big load having 5 seasons with 250+ rushing attempts and 2 with 300+ rushing attempts. He obviously had that incredible year in 2009 where he rushed for 2,006 yards. His average yards per attempt is 4.5 which is pretty good (Murray's is 4.8).

    Considering that this would likely be the best offensive unit he's played behind in his entire career, I think Chris Johnson could revive his career in Dallas.

    Hope Brady gets suspended for a game or 2 just so he's a little easier to draft in fantasy. I bet he gets a game at the most though, probably not even that. He'll get a fine or something.

    Would love to see Brady get 4-6, but 2 would be realistic

    No way Brady gets suspended for opening night against the Steelers, he'll get fined. Would be bad a--- to see Jimmy G come out and light the Steelers up though lol...

    I don't know. Dallas likes those north/south runners that make one cut and go. Chris Johnson dances to much in the hole nowadays and really shy's away from contact. He's not what he used to be. I don't think dallas fans would be to happy with him to many negative plays from him and his speed is not what it used to be

    I feel like in Dallas that would change though, just due to their zone blocking scheme. Cowboys rarely run pitches or to the outside, not to mention the holes he's going to be seeing, there's going to really be no point of dancing around in the backfield lol

    @Fitz @redsoxx any comments?

    i wouldn't be so sure about that.

    you gotta keep in mind the pats have a reputation for these kinda fishy tactics.......plus goodell tends to come down hard on people/teams when they step out of line.

    roger the rabbit might lay down the hammer on the tom and suspend him a couple games

    Dont think they have anything concrete to really lay down the hammer, but who knows with Goodell maybe he does suspend him to avoid the s--- storm the NFL would get if its just a slap on the wrist fine.

    I just have a hard time seeing Opening night/Ring night without Brady.

    CJ is a workhorse, definately has become overhated and underrated, would be a great pickup for you guys especially seeing as McFadden will be out week 2
