Just as it seems as though the Texans will finally dethrone the Colts, they come up short.
The Titans are poised to build off the second half of their 2009 campaign and the Colts aren't going to simply role over, coming off an AFC championship performance.
To win the AFC North, the Texans are going to start stopping teams, as opposed to out scoring them. As I see it, the Texans defense don't appear to be poised to stop the Titans or the Colts.
Not since 2002 have the Colts won fewer than 12 games in a season.
Whether it be a Super Bowl hangover, lack of depth, injury plagued season or other teams finally catching up to them, I think that 2010 will be a season the cheap Colts jersey would like to forget.
That said, with 10 wins, they will still put themselves in a position to make the playoffs, but I guarantee they won't be resting their starters in Week 16 and 17 this year.
In 2009, the Jaguars had 7 home blackouts, only selling out their Thursday nigiht contest vs. Indianapolis.
In 2010, there doesn't appear to be a bright spot on the home schedual. The Jaguars play 5 home games before hosting their first division opponent, Tennessee in Week 13. By that time, the Jaguars will be removed from playoff contention, eliminating any hope to sell out any of their division games.
At this point, the best chance for the Jaguars to improve their attendance would be to draft Ryan Mallett or Jake Locker in the first round of the 2010 draft. Otherwise, we might be talking about the "LA Jags" sooner rather than later.
This will be a make or break season for the majority of those involved with the Kansas City Chiefs jersey franchise.
Todd Haley, Jamaal Charles, Matt Cassel and several other players will be looking for a new employer if they fail to deliver in 2010.
The additions of Charlie Weis and Romeo Crennel should do nothing but help the cause this season, but it will definitely be an uphill climb.
Their roster has the talent, whether they can make it all work on-field, remains to be seen.
Miami Dolphins - Walk Away with AFC East TitleNo team has mas improved more(on paper), than the Miami Dolphins.
They needed to improve their passing game, they add Brandon Marshall, the best possession receiver in the league.
They were looking to improve team speed on defense, they add Jared Odrick, Koa Misi and Karlos Dansby. They also add Cameron Wake to their starting lineup.
They needed to create more turnovers. Sean Smith and Vontae Davis enter their second season running with the first team defense. More importantly, they add Mike Nolan, one of the best defensive coordinators available.
The Dolphins are the most complete team in the AFC and if they can get reliable play from cheap Chad Henne jersey , they'll contend for the Super Bowl.
