You also have to factor in they will start tuning out that dweeb McDaniel VERY soon. He's no leader of men.

Where did I say that the Dolphins didn't get worse defensively?

The thing is, they were absolutely depleted down the stretch anyways, so year, Barrett and the guys they've added are at least better than the street FAs they were trotting out at the end of the season.

I was talking about the division as a whole though. It's not even debatable that the Jets and Pats got better.

Yeah, with Rodgers effing around, hard to see the Jets winning that division, and the Dolphins are a big question for me.

Seems like the division might be an easier path for the Bills this year, even though the team may be taking a step back overall.

I'm skeptical Shakir can be quite as productive as he was in the second half of last season because he's going from being the slot guy to being THE guy.

I expect them to run a lot of 12 set stuff and try to emphasize Kincaid's role (buy Kincaid, buy Cook in fantasy), but I don't really view Dawson Knox as a difference maker on his own (he's a competent TE but more of a Noah Gray sort). But I don't know that Coleman can thrive outside as a rookie, and I don't know that Shakir can, either.

They've got a bunch of slots. Claypool is an outside guy, but other than that their next 3 receiving targets are really guys best employed from the slot.

That... uh... is interesting.

Shitkur is a 3 at best on most teams.

I’m a huge Drake Maye fan, but yeah they’re gonna bring him along slowly IMO. Patriots are rebuilding their team. Probably a 6 or 7 win team

What did Rodgers do? Miss a couple of OTA practices?

Seems like the typical overblown shit because he's become a villain for many.

Rodgers demanded they keep an OC the team was dissatisfied with, and there still isn't a real offensive line in front of him.

I'd bet dollars to doughnuts the Jets ain't winning that division.

Well that would STILL be an improvement, from a team that split with the Bills last year, and were competitive in both games.

They signed Smith and Moses. They have to stay healthy, but their OL improved significantly on paper.

OC could be an issue, but if Rodgers is healthy, they should still be so much better.

I just don't see how the path gets easier when half of the division is going from Zach Wilson and Mac Jones to Aaron Rodgers and Drake Maye.

The Billls lost to Wilson AND Jones last year too LMAO

If Miami stays healthy, I don't see why they won't be as good or better than the Bills. And the Jets could be better than either if Rodgers has a decent year.

Rodgers is 40 coming off an achilles injury.

I'd guess it's more likely he's a shell than he's old Rodgers

Call me crazy, but I’ll take Colts over Jets.

Anthony Richardson is that dude if he can stay healthy.

I was just going to say this. What are the expectations of an aging QB returning to play off a ruptured achilles? Maybe a healed achilles is as good as new, but it sounds like it would be something to worry about.

I really don't see Rogers being bad. I could be wrong but that arrogant prick lives to be hated and I think it drives him to be better. I think he'll be the best QB in that division this year as far as passing stats go.
