Everyone is wondering if the Jets are the real deal this year after many great off season moves and trades that put the Jets in the list for Super Bowl contenders this year. The Brady Bunch is also in the run for a Super Bowl now that Brady and Welker are finally healthy, and their young defense is starting to mature. Can Rex Ryan's new powerful gang take the experienced Patriots number 1 spot?
You have to give the Jets alot of credit. They made it to the AFC Finals last year and have an even more staggering crew this year. Can you believe all the acquisitions they have made during the summer. Starting with their offense they gave Mark Sanchez so many weapons he can play with. Adding LaDanian Tomlinson to their backfield, and previous Superbowl MVP Santonio Holmes to their already great receiving core the Jets now have an amazing amount of weapons that can be utilized; and the Jets strength isn't even their offense, its their defense who was the number one defense in the league last year. This defense is insane, packed with amazing players and even better defensive schemes. The Jets now have Antonio Cromartie to add to their secondary who has had 15 interceptions in the last 3 years. and can apply the same style of man and zone blitz packages that they had last year because of all the good players this defense carries. Adding Jason Taylor also to their line-up there is no doubt this team will be great, but will it be first in their division?
The Jets will win atleast 10 games next season, but their team chemistry and leadership in the QB position tells me that they will not be able to beat the Patriots veteran offense. Belichick's team is will to be number one in the AFC East this year because Brady is healthy, and he is back with even more weapons than in 2007 when they went undefeated. Are you kidding me, more weapons? Welker the leader in catches is now healthy, Moss is getting older but he still has a lot of fuel in him, and they just picked up Alge Crumpler, and Torry Holt who were both pro bowl caliber players in their younger years. This gives the Patriots one of the strongest passing attacks in the NFL. Although their defense is not very strong, and is very young they have some good players that are developing into great defensive pieces for their defense; like linebacker Brandon Meriweather, and Jerod Mayo who both showed great skills at their linebacker position. Pats also drafted corner back Devin McCourty in the first round to help their secondary start to further develop. Althought their defense is not of A, or even B caliber the patriots offense is that good that they will win the AFC East this year.
