BeastMaster Posted April 26, 2020 Posted April 26, 2020 I would rank the AFC as this 1. KC 2. BAL 3. BUF 4. CLE 5. IND 6. PIT 7. DEN 8. TEN 9. HOU 10. NE 11. MIA 12. LVR 13. NYJ 14. JAX 15. CIN KC must remain atop until someone knocks them off. I think Bills and Ravens are the only teams that could do it in the AFC. Baltimore has a great roster, but I still question their offense and QB. Can be contender or a playoff failure once again. For me, the question for the Bills is Allen and the Oline. Oline must be better and help the run game and give Allen better protection...especially when teams bring pressure. If they get those things, they can beat anyone.. I think most that were high on the Browns last year were a season off. They are loaded on both sides of the ball and have vastly improved the line, so Baker should play fairly well. Coaching will also be better. Indy and Pit are veteran teams that have some talent and are well coached...should be in the hunt. Denver is a possible threat that may be good on both sides of the ball. MIA could possibly make some noise if Tua is who some think. Nobody else is worthy of mentioning IMO. 1
MrEpsYtown Posted April 26, 2020 Posted April 26, 2020 Chargers are a sleeper I think. I’m not a Tyrod fan, but that defense is stacked and added Chris Harris and Kenneth Murray. Really good secondary etc. They have offensive weapons and added Trai Turner and Bryan Bulaga to thier offensive line. With Tyrod’s ability to protect the football, and their ability to run the ball with Ekeler, I think they have a shot to be sneaky good. Biggest issue for them is that they have no left tackle. I’m guessing they sign a Jason Peters or something to hold down the fort. People have them way too far down on the docket imo. 1

So you feel that the Texans team that barely beat the Bills in the playoffs that had Hopkins on it would beat the Bills again right now without Hopkins? I also think the Titans are taking a HUGE gamble on Tannehill repeating what he did last year. If he plays like (or slightly above) the Tannehill we saw before last year, they will struggle to make the playoffs
GunnerBill Posted April 26, 2020 Posted April 26, 2020 1 minute ago, HappyDays said: Spotrac says that with the projected salary spent on their draft picks, their cap space currently stands at -$6.1 million. That minus sign isn't a typo. They're literally in the negative. Cutting Sanu will put them just above $0. Dalton has a cap hit of $18 million this year. I have to think Newton would be around the same. The only scenario I see that happening is if they outright trade Thuney but that would make their roster worse and they'd be right against the salary cap with a mediocre roster. From a team building standpoint it makes more long term sense for them to roll with Stidham and start over next year. I agree with the bolded but am still not sure that is what they will do. Maybe I am wrong but my gut instinct is they are not accepting a year of not competing. And my point on the cap situation is they have freedom to manipulate. They are not against the cap next year and the year after. They can make space for Dalton if they want him and then manipulate his deal as well because he has $0 in guarantees. 1 minute ago, MrEpsYtown said: Chargers are a sleeper I think.

Tough division. I think they are in for a long hard season. 5 minutes ago, BuffaloBills1998 said: Miami’s biggest player is Tua. If he can stay healthy and become what most think and expect him to become then watch out. Chargers got the short end of the stick and will be looking for a new QB Mark my words Agree their biggest player is Tua. Just think they are another year away.

They already conceded this by letting Brady go. Supposedly one of the reasons he left is that they didn't do enough to add offensive talent. For example they could have upped their offer to get Diggs if they really wanted to make a run. Instead they stood pat and doubled down by adding no receivers in the draft. They let Brady walk with a $13.5 million dead cap hit. That doesn't strike me as a team going all out to compete one last time. They're in rebuild mode. If they want to find a way to barely fit Andy Dalton into their cap space, I'll welcome that. It wouldn't really change my outlook on their season.

It wouldn't really change my outlook on their season. Maybe. I think Brady was walking since last August. I don't think it had anything to do with talent I think it is about a relationship between he and Belichick that has been strained since Belichick considered going with Jimmy G three years ago and Brady asked Kraft to step in. To me if they go with what they have then unless Stidham is much better than anyone expects they win 6 games. I agree long term that is probably what they should do. Just not sure it is what they will do. With Dalton to me they are an 8 or 9 win team. 1

They are building a competitive roster and the players are buying in. Watch Miami take the division next year I guess we will see when they start playing the games. 1

Miami is building their team the right way, completely opposite of what Cleveland did. Tua is going to be a great QB

Ethan in Cleveland Posted April 26, 2020 Posted April 26, 2020 1. Ravens 2. Chiefs 3. Steelers (assuming healthy Roethlisberger) 4. Bills 5. Broncos 6. Colts 7. Patriots(If Patriots sign Newton then move them to 5) 8. Titans 9. Browns 10. Texans 11. Raiders 12. Chargers 13. Jets 14. Dolphins 15. Bengals 16.

GETTOTHE50 Posted April 26, 2020 Posted April 26, 2020 Everyone loves the Ravens here for some reason. They got curb stomped twice at home in the playoffs, once after a bye, another from a west team traveling East. Once is an accident. Two times is a real problem. 1

The Patriots are going to be bad this year, best coach ever be dammed.
