Just wanted to point out the fact that the AFC East was a combined 1-15 in the preseason this year.
The only victory came in week one with the Pats beating the Saints 7-6.
Just another indication that we will be fine. This isnt stopping anyone from getting on the Pats or Bills bandwagon so we shouldnt let it affect us.
Pats typically dont do well in the Preseason and they always have sucess in the regular season.
WEEK 1 is for REAL so lets focus on that and start counting wins and loses then.
so you're saying that the Pasts* are infinitely better than the rest of the division??
In 2007 the Pats went 0-4 in the preseason. They went 16-0 in the regular season that year.
In 2008 the Lions went 4-0 in the preseason. They went 0-16 in the regular season that year.
The preseason means jack s**t.
We may not win a game this year. If the pats usually don't do well and everyone else does, and we sucked in this preseason..... As did the bills and dolphins and we didn't score a TD until the last Thursday in August.Quote:

Ladies and gentlemen, let's give a standing ovation to the 2012 wildcat...tic-toc...tic-toc...tic-toc :baghead:
Everyone is harping on about our offense this year ... is our O really that much poorer this year than last?
Our main "losses" from last year were Plax, LT and Hunter.
Our main gains are Hill, Tebow and Howard (sort of ...). As far as I can see, 9 of our 11 starters are the same guys from last year.
Last year's O averaged 23.5 points per game - not stunning, but not the 13 or 10 that the media seem to be portraying that we'll get this year. Given that our talent level has NOT dropped off a cliff compared to last year, why can't we expect to score at least the same on average this year?
Meanwhile our D gave up nearly 23 point per game on average, and we have certainly improved the talent on that side of the ball.
So - pretty much the same O talent + better D talent (plus, you could argue, a better schedule) and we're going to win fewer games than last year??? I can honestly see us surprising a few people this year, who think we are what preseason says we are.
Can't wait! :cool:
Dont ever start a thread with 1-15 in the title. Anyone who was around in 97 wants to kill you now.

The talent level in preseason hasn`t gotten it together and surely, if they don`t, it will be a very long season. The D looks ok when the playing field is shortened(red zone), but that doesn`t bode well. The D will have to score because the Jets O sucks. I can`t see the Jets winning more than 6 games this season, if they are lucky in some games. The Offense will have too many 3 `n outs which will kill the Defense. The Jets D is NOT good when they can`t stay off the field.
