NFL Season Preview: AFC East

Will Pennington Lead The Dolphins To Another Title?
The AFC East was anything but usual last season. One star quarterback came in, while one was lost after only 8 minutes of play. Another quarterback won the Comeback Player of the Year Award for the second time in his career. That’s right, the Patriots did not win the AFC East last season. They didn’t even make the playoffs in 2008. Chad Pennington and the Dolphins took full advantage of Tom Brady’s injury and went 11-5. The Pats, who also went 11-5, lost the tie-breaker to the Dolphins and finished in 2nd place. Even though Tom Brady went down early, Matt Cassel stepped in and played his way to a big contract with the Chiefs. Behind Brett Favre, the Jets looked strong early but went only 1-4 down the stretch. The Jets finished 9-7, but were only able to finish 3rd in the division. The Bills started strong as well, but couldn’t manage a win in their own division. Despite the struggle within the division, the Bills still managed to win 7 games. The Pats dynasty may have lost the battle last season, but the war is far from over. Can the Patriots reclaim the division title, or will Chad Pennington lead the Dolphins to glory again?
NFL Is A Copycat League…Here’s Another Example
Turk Schonert fired today as offensive coordinator in Buffalo
Well you can go down several avenues to prove that one. You can look at the teams switching from the 4-3 defense to a 3-4 defense, or teams implementing the Wildcat offense, and so on.
How bout this growing trend? Firing offensive coordinators before the season has begun! The Bills fired offensive coordinator Turk Schonert today, after Kansas City’s Chan Gailey was fired on Monday and Tampa Bay’s Jeff Jagodzinski was let go on Thursday. I talked to some longtime NFL followers, did some research and struggled to find any precedent for these types of firings. (If you find some, send it to me and I will be quite thankful)
Guess Who’s Back?

And the Winner of the Michael Vick Lottery is...the Eagles?
Every one’s favorite Madden cover boy is back! Michael Vick signed a two year deal with the Philadelphia Eagles late Wednesday night. While many speculated that Vick would sign with a team this week, very few suspected it would be the Eagles. The Eagles already have a franchise quarterback in Donovan McNabb, and a myriad of playmakers on offense. So, why attract a media frenzy and sign Michael Vick?
