BiggieScooby Posted October 31, 2012 Posted October 31, 2012 https://www.profootballfocus.com/blog/2012/10/31/pffs-mid-season-all-afc-east-team/ Here is Profootball Focus midseason ALL AFC EAST Team. Representing Buffalo: CJ, Levitre, Kyle Williams, & Byrd. Surprised to see Miami's returner Thigpen edge out McKelvin. McKelvin has 9 punt returns for 216 yards 24.0 avg. & 1 td with a long of 88, and 10 kickoff returns for 320 yards - 32.0 avg. - 0 tds with a long of 59. Thigpen has 14 punt returns for 200 yards 14.3 avg. & 1 td with a long of 72, and 15 kickoff returns for 420 yards - 28.0 avg. - 0 tds with a long of 87. Offense Running Back: C.J. Spiller (BUF) With 7.3 yards per carry, 23 forced missed tackles in the running game and a league leading 138.5 Elusive Rating is there a more dangerous back in the league than Spiller? Guards: Donald Thomas (NE) and Andy Levitre (BUF) Remember when this was home to all the top guards in the AFC? Yeah, that changed quickly. Thomas gets plenty of criticism, but his play has been better than most have realized. Levitre hasn’t always got the most movement in the run game, but has had a decent start to the year. Defense Defensive Tackle: Randy Starks (MIA) and Kyle Williams (BUF) Again, two guys who earned themselves honorable mentions as All-Pros to this point in the season. Starks has been superb all year — as he has been pretty much his entire time in Miami. Meanwhile in Buffalo, Williams has been a one-man band at times, making up for the disappointing play of his teammates with his usual relentlessness. Safeties: Reshad Jones (MIA) and Jairus Byrd (BUF) Byrd is one of the few safeties out there who really plays like he can change a game. Jones may be developing into that type of player after a difficult sophomore campaign.
