Point spread Ratings
&
Predicted min-max wins


AFC EAST

PATRIOTS 95.21
6.48-11.01 wins
I'm not sure they could have had a better off-season "on paper". Other than Stefon being Stefon 🤣🤣....Vrabel clearly is the perfect fit .
Love the additions on the O line and Front 7 on defense.. While its not worth much I thought Henderson and Kyle Williams should have gone much earlier in the draft..Been investing heavily in Drake Maye cards since December lol ...
WR room should be much better with Diggs, Mack Hollins and Williams now in the mix ..Douglas and Boutte showed flashes last season as well ..
I'd give them a decent chance of making the playoffs (37.1%)

Unfortunately the Pats seem to be most people's "sleeper" or greatly improved squad this season

NEW JERSEY JETS
89.36
WINS. 3.8-9.5


Huge variance on possible outcomes imo ...Could see the Jets being absolutely atrocious, but also possibly battling the Patriots for 2nd place in the division/ a playoff spot ...
Our fantastic brother Brewers and I admittedly disagree on the Hiring of Aaron Glenn. Gut feeling this team rallies around him as their leader when the brutal big city media takes jabs at or attacks his decisions. Might be some growing pains but this squad could be a major pain in the ass for better teams and us bettors this season

MIAMI DOLPHINS
91.17
Wins 4.7-9.7

Have both their secondary and Offensive line in the bottom 5 in the league. Could be better than that but the O line which added James Daniels will have to jell , while Jalen Ramsey is flaking out at the moment.
All that being said the Dolphins could be alive for a playoff spot heading into December...Might be a solid Over team as their offense should have some pop , but the Defense might be Swiss cheese ..

BUFFALO BILLS
101.41
9.6-14.1

Once again the BILLS season ended in a tight FG loss to the Chiefs due to a decimated defense that was forced to use backup players that I'm not sure would make a CFL roster..
Thankfully GM finally got the message that defensive depth is crucial come playoff time as he made 6 of the first 7 draft picks defensive players...Also signed athletic Michael Hoecht who as RAMS DE last season also lined up at slot cornerback. Unfortunately just like DT signing Larry Ogunjobi, Hoecht is suspended for the first 6 games. Joey Bosa was brought in on a 1 year contract., hilariously he's already hurt lol ...Tre White and Dane Jackson rejoin the secondary after a few seasons elsewhere. Derrick Forrest might be a diamond in the rough at safety ..

While I'm hyper critical of both Beane and McDermott, it's a near miracle they were able to resign Greg Rousseau, Terrel Bernard, Christian Benford, Josh Allen and Khalil Shakir..
Never thought they'd be able to afford even half of them .

The WR room should be better this season with the additions of Elijah Moore and Josh Palmer...The Bills have desperately needed a small quick wr since Isaiah McKenzie left , don't be surprised if he's a big part of the offense , including some jet sweeps. Josh Palmer ranked 12th among 77 qualifying wide receivers in average separation score. Additionally, he was ranked 8th in separation score against man coverage.
Expect much bigger things out of TE Dalton Kincaid this season after he dealt with 2 knee injuries and a collarbone injury last season.

Anytime you have the opportunity to hire the leagues worst defensive coordinator as head coach its just a situation you can't pass up.
 
AFC East better, worse or the same....gut opinions looking at Ourlad's depth charts

Buffalo - Offense the same (how will Allen adjust to married life? WR room is full of B-level guys), Defense should be better with some of the depth added. Slightly better overall, is it finally enough?
Miami - Seems like they've gotten worse but are probably the same....quick start and figured out in the 2nd half of the season.
Jets - Rodgers to Fields is a downgrade, Adams to Reynolds is a downgrade, bookend #1 tackles should help line. Defense will be pesky as long as Sauce is healthy. Worse than last year, which wasn't even that good, yikes.
New England - Should be much improved. New coach, 2nd year QB, improved WR room, upgraded Oline. Defense made numerous adds that will need time to jell. Would not want to see these guys on the schedule 2nd half of year.

Predicted order of finish
Bills - fighting for bye
Patriots - mild wildcard chance
Dolphins
Jets

Adjusting to married life always scares me when it comes to QB'S and starting pitchers. All of a sudden these young guys have to answer to their new boss about every breath they take 🤣🤣. This boss can make everyday a living hell if they chose lol .

Agree with your divisional assessment and predictions.

Thanks for your time and valuable input brother !!
 
BALTIMORE RAVENS
102.22
9.4-14

Heading into the playoffs last season I strongly believed the Ravens were the best team. Had they beat the Bills ( which they probably should have ) I think they would have beat the Chiefs as well.
Great job resigning key LT Ronnie Staley. While it's impossible to grade a draft class for at least 2 years I thought they did fantastic work adding players that will either make an immediate impact like Starks or adding quality depth that will contribute.
Way too many talking heads talk about the Ravens WR room as if it's not good , and they needed to add more in the off-season. Flowers and Bateman are still ascending, Isaiah Likely is more like a WR than a TE ...Not a fan of the D Hop signing as he looked washed ly , but maybe he's more of a player coach at this point.
The defense should be amongst the best in the NFL , has all the athletic weapons to give the Bills fits week 1 .

Always a great bet considering they get zero respect in the betting market

You can micro manage them to profit every season.
 
I think what you get with the Ravens is a division where Pittsburgh will always take money and the Bengals are the flavor of the month. That sets up perfectly for Baltimore because there is no way they are the third best team in that division.

Looking at the early NFL division futures parlay I put in , The Ravens are on every single ticket where a North winner was picked ...Unless Lamar gets hurt I think they win the division by at least 3 games ...Bengals defense is going to be bad , really bad .
 
CINCINNATI BENGALS
94.32
6.2-10.1 WINS

Wow can't believe they screwed the pooch by resigning Higgins. ..
If Hendrickson is gone or holds out the D line has major questions and will be praying that Stewart is an elite rookie ...
The Interior O line might lead to Burrow getting decapitated...

Lucky their isn't much going on in the division behind the Ravens ...Might compete for a playoff spot , but I have a bad feeling Joe is running for his life and the defense is gashed..
Jake Browning better have his helmet on at all times

Over the total might be an insta bet on an weekly basis.
 
PITTSBURGH STEELERS
93.11
5.6-9.8

Maybe they make the playoffs again , but I don't think the talent is there to beat anyone ...Imo Rodgers is washed and is going to bring a ton of drama to the Burg ...Getting Metcalf should sell some jerseys but I think he's just a little better than Pickens who departed. On the flip side o really like the pick of Harmon , think he'll be a force from his first snap ...Running game looks to be in decent shape with Warren back and they drafted Kaleb Johnson. .. Slay was a nice veteran add to the secondary while Jack Sawyer seems to fit as well ...
Personally I would have just taken the lumps and went with Rudolph and Howard . Think they blew any chance at getting Arch or another top rookie QB selection ...9-8 or 8-9 sounds like the ceiling , but if Rodgers is out they could finally finish a few games under 500...
