They'll be an 8-9 win team. The QB isn't good enough to win more than ten games playing against the 7th toughest schedule in the league.

Goodluck beating New England & Buffalo twice, Cincy, Seattle, Arizona, Kansas City, Pittsburgh, & Baltimore, bro

So officially some Jets bold predictions: The Jets win 8 out of 10 of these games. 1 loss to New England & 1 loss to either Seattle or Arizona.

The Jets win 12 or more games. (I know I have them at 13-3 in the other thread but if I'm making a bold prediction it's that they're winning 12 or more... 13 would probably be their absolute ceiling so there's not much room for error )

The Jets not only make the playoffs but make it to the AFCCG again for the first time in over 5 years.

Jets are gonna win 8-10 games.

And looking at that schedule, that number may be closer to 8. The Jets can very well start off 1-5 or 2-4.

I just looked at Carolina's schedule and I take it back.

I'm going to make a bold prediction and say that Tampa Bay wins the division. I don't think any team in the NFC South has ever won the division three times in a row and I like the team they're building in Tampa.

If you guys think a team with the talent that the Jets have are winning 8 games, then you're crazy.

Even with a weak schedule, the Steelers are gonna finish .500 or worse. It amazes me that people think the Steelers are gonna be great this season. The defense has only gotten worse, the offense has lost the explosive Martavis Bryant, they don't have a legitimate (healthy) TE, Bell is out again to start the season, and Big Ben is only getting older with more lingering injuries. I'll be surprised if they win 7-8 games.

Shit, that really is a tough schedule for the Jets. I stand by what I said though. They're gonna start out 4-2 and then go on a run to finish 12-4.

A schedule is only as tough as the team lets it be. Great teams will be great REGARDLESS.

Difference between the NYJ and Pittsburgh is that the latter actually has a real QB who can carry them and win games lmao.

They are also matched up w/ the NFC East and have very favorable schedule.

That's why I said "even with a weak schedule" when addressing the Steelers. I'm aware they have a favorable schedule but even if Big Ben stays healthy all season, him & Bell aren't going to carry that team to the playoffs again.

What I don't get is how you have the Colts getting to 11 wins when they are man for man the least talented team in the league while diminishing Pittsburgh's chances.

You also have Houston only winning 8 games when they are better than Indy and just as talented as the NYJ

The Colts are in a pretty trash division (if not even the worst division) with a QB entering his prime trying to redeem himself & his team after the mess from last season. I don't even like Andrew Luck that much but I can't deny he gives them a great chance to win a lot of games again. I also think the Colts' talent is kinda underrated. They're not that good as a whole but it's also not the least talented team in the league. The Steelers for one don't have much talent outside of a few stars (mainly on the offensive end). The Bears & 49ers are also some very poorly put together football teams at the moment, just to name a few that are worse than the Colts and don't have an Andrew Luck to lead the offense.

These things don't just come down to who has the better football team on paper.

All 3 teams in the AFC South have better players than the Colts, and unlike in years past, all 3 of them have legit franchise quality QB's. The only reason why they dominated the division was because all the other teams had trash QB's, which has changed now.

And yes, the Steelers have better players on their team, too, even on the defensive side of the ball. Stephon Tuitt , Lawrence Timmons, Ryan Shazier, Casey Hayward, etc are an upgrade over anyone the Colts have on that D.

Burdur has no fucking clue what he's talking about.

Burdur is a bigger homer than CB.

The Jets aren't going to start out above .500 in the first 6 games. Best case scenario 2-4.

I'm done

Hit me up in this thread a couple months from now. People stop responding when threads are brought back up later in the season.

Tell me your predictions for the first 6 weeks.

Straight WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW's

Only if Geno starts.

Hue Jackson is a serious contender for Coach of the Year, if not winning it.

Hasn't been a good day for Burdur

The Jets might start 0-6 with that schedule.

Jets gonna fuck around and start 1-5.
