My view......... Although it wont matter much
As many of you know I dont talk much "crap" but I feel the need to right now.
I must know why some of you think that you are a lock for the playoffs right now? Granted you have a new coach, new RB, couple new OL, Boston back (dont know if thats a good thing), a guy who in my opinion is the best TE in the league, and a fairly solid Defense how are any of these things a guarantee other than the TE?
Ronnie Brown - Great college RB and has just as much potential as anyone but WHAT HAS HE DONE IN THE NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE? Seriously? What has he done? Be excited about having "the best back in the draft" but dont start throwing out these "oh he is going to have 2,000 yards this year and have double digit TD's stuff. You wont know what you have till about week 12.
Nick Saban - Once again I raise the question, WHAT HAS HE DONE IN THE NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE AS A HEAD COACH?? Am I missing something? Was he an HC in the past and I just didnt know it? Last time I checked ole Steve Spurrier didnt work out for the Skins. He was every bit as successful as Saban, maybe even more so. So what has he done? Only thing Im giving him so far is that he is welcoming Ricky back with open arms. Other than that, what has he done?
Defense - Your guys are starting to age and the age is starting to show. Zach (one of my favorite guys) is starting to really show age with injuries and missed time. Junior same thing. You have subracted Surtain (Ill never understand that. You got rid of Knight (correct me if Im wrong and Ill eat my words) which was freaking insane, he and Taylor won that Patriot game for you last season. Taylors numbers are going down, is it because of age or because teams respect him enough to double him? Either way, numbers are down. You got rid of Morlon Greenwood, why? The guy was really up and coming IMO. You signed Traylor, who cares?
QB's - Gus and A.J.? That is the second weakest QB core in the East (infront of the Bills, who knows how good Losman is yet?). They are horrible. Had Feeley pulled his head out of his *** last season and made some much better throws you all might have beat us in that second game. He lost that game for you in the forth.
My point? You just came off of a 4-12 season. Sure you finished strong by beating NE (very very impressive) but what right now makes you better than the Pats, Bills, and Jets? You are Im sure aware that you play in the toughest division in football. You think the rest of the East is going to lay down and let you run them over?
Just my opinion, I know Ill get some flak for it but at least Im coming with facts and not smack talking.
