It may be the primary time in a long time that the Miami Dolphins have gotten this a lot preseason love from the nationwide media. Touted as among the finest groups within the stacked AFC, the Dolphins are anticipated to be proper there to win the division and on the very least, make the playoffs. Preseason expectations are at an all-time excessive, and it begs the query, are the Dolphins essentially the most feared crew within the division? Good Morning Soccer answered that query yesterday, and it was truthfully a really gratifying dialog to look at.
Though many of the Dolphins speak was overwhelmingly optimistic, the conclusion I obtained out of it was that they suppose Buffalo Payments are nonetheless the crew to beat within the division. I truthfully suppose the Diggs drama will resolve itself in coaching camp so I don’t maintain that in opposition to them. They’re the division winner for the final 3 years and, till not too long ago, have owned the Dolphins. Now with Tua Tagovailoa that could be a unique story this 12 months.
Tua beat the Payments at house and misplaced on a last-second area purpose later within the 12 months in that Buffalo blizzard. He additionally proved that he might do it within the components, in order that was like 2 birds, 1 stone for Dolphins followers. Dolphins do appear to be a little bit of a kryptonite for the Payments, however “to be the king, that you must beat the king,” to cite Cam Wolfe.
Exterior a few of the embarrassments we’ve had in opposition to the Payments, the Miami Dolphins completely dominate the remainder of the division when Tua is enjoying. The toughest groups to play in the course of the 12 months are your division video games. They know you higher than anybody and at all times play you arduous. We’ve gotten massive performs from Tua in these video games too, and we’ll want extra of the identical this 12 months. General the Miami Dolphins are 8-4 in opposition to the AFC East, with all 4 losses in opposition to the Payments.

With the best way the division is stacking up this 12 months, it appears to be like as if it’ll be a 3 crew race between the Dolphins, Payments, and Jets. The Patriots can be common. Not horrible, and to not be missed, however the apparent backside to the division. It’s about time too. They received it for 20 years with the goat Tom Brady, so it’s time to let the remainder of the division get their shine.
I do suppose most followers and media underestimate the Jets. The roster is totally stacked, younger, and I’m a believer in Aaron Rodgers. He’s going to revert again to being a prime 5-10 QB within the league this 12 months. Brady made the blueprint to Quarterbacking after 40, so we will’t write Aaron off. A Rodgers-led offense with prime 3 expertise on the opposite facet of the ball is critical.

I assume logic says you need to go along with the crew with a top-3 quarterback and division winner for the final 3 years. Vegas goes with them, and so they’re normally on the cash, so I get it. It’s Buffalo’s division as of now, however the Jets are quietly flying beneath the radar with firepower on each side of the ball and are even forward of the Dolphins, in keeping with Vegas. I consider the Dolphins have the best ceiling, and with the additions they’ve made within the offseason, they’ve the perfect crew on paper. Greatest the division has ever been in my lifetime.
Tell us who you suppose essentially the most feared crew within the AFC East is within the feedback under.
