Does the offensive line count in the talent category? Because it sure seems like Timmy has a lot of time to throw back there. The running lanes for Timmy and the RB's were pretty good too.

There are many things not to like about Sanchez this season. The ONLY thing I can write in his defense is that when you get hit as often and as hard as he did this year, it takes it's toll. No quarterback is successfull when getting slammed around, including Brady.

The Jets were built to win THIS year, what they did on the field was pretty disgraceful. They will have much work to do in the off-season. I will say as of today, next year's schedule is'nt that bad. But of course that opinion can change dramatically.

Football season is over, it's on to HOCKEY!

We this being a league of parity now, I'm not sure there is really such a thing as an "easy" schedule. That being said, it does seem like they caught a break by getting to play all the better teams of the opposing divisons at home.

They will have to go to Pittsburgh, but will get the Bolts at home. So in a season where they could have been forced to go to the west coast 3 times, the furthest they will have to go is Arizona.

He has not 1 relevant skill position player, the WR Thomas would be a nice 3 on most teams with a lot of upside. He is there 1.

If you do not have time to throw the ball, it wouldn't matter if you had Jerry Rice, Michael Irvin and Lynn Swann as your recievers.

Willis McGahee is alright. He's not Barry Sanders, but it could be a lot worse.

Thomas looks like a 3 because Tebow throws the ball like Nuke LaLoosh. If he had Brady or Rogers throwing to him he would have 1200 yds. and double digit TD's.

Brady makes mediocre receivers look much better than they are. Rodgers receivers are all good, and would be without Rodgers.

Hernandez & Gronkowski are mediocre.

where would they be without Brady ? when the Pats drafted them last year was there some big celebration about the 2 new Star can't miss Tight Ends we just drafted ? I think Brady has a lot to do with their success. Branch, Patton and a few others didn't do jack without Tom Terrific.

no offense but Gronk would be a pro bowler on most teams who have a half way decent offense.

and yeah, when you take a TE early in the 2nd round, there are high expectations.
