It’s put-up-or-shut-up time for the 2015 Miami Dolphins. Like a couple of other teams within their division, the Dolphins have a roster with some talented players and others players with tons of upside. Yet, the Fish have finished 8-8 the past two seasons and haven’t made the playoffs in years.
In Jetsland, out is oft-publicized head coach Rex Ryan and in his place steps another defensive guy, former Arizona co-ordinator Todd Bowles. Ryan’s replacement is respected in the business and, unlike his predecessor, is intent on building the Jets into a respectable offensive team as well as remaining stout defensively.
Understandably, there is a lot of optimism in western New York about the arrival of new head coach Rex Ryan. Particularly with the suspension of Tom Brady, QB of the divisional top dog New England Patriots, Ryan’s player-friendly attitude and zest for defense should bode well for a respectable Bills roster.
The New England Patriots aim to repeat their Super Bowl success for a second consecutive year, but they’ll have to do it with some kind of a suspension to hallowed starting QB Tom Brady.
New England has been the model franchise in the NFL for consistency and success under head coach Bill Belichick after posting 13 winning seasons following a 5-11 record in his first year at the helm.
The Jets outperformed most of the experts’ expectations last season with a .500 record that kept them in the AFC playoff race well into December.
The Dolphins remained in the AFC playoff race deep into December last year, but back-to-back losses to Buffalo and the New York Jets in their final two games extended their current postseason drought to five seasons.
It has been nearly 15 years since the Buffalo Bills have made it into the playoffs and they have posted a grand total of one winning season during this drought.
If there ever was a NFL team that could be easily confused with a travelling circus it would be the New York Jets. Rex Ryan made his mark by leading this team to back-to-back AFC Championship Games in his first two seasons as head coach, but since then he has taken the Jets in the wrong direction with an 8-8 record in 2011 and a 6-10 mark in his fourth season at the helm.
The Bills have been trying to circle the wagons for quite a long time now with just one winning season since going 11-5 in 1999.
The last time the Dolphins made it to the playoffs was in 2008 when they went 11-5 and won the AFC East. What made that season so impressive was the fact that they only won one game the year before.
Ever since Bill Belichick assumed the head coaching position with the Patriots in 2000 and turned this franchise into the Gold Standard in the NFL, he has probably not faced as tumultuous of an offseason as he did this past winter and spring.
