"All Day" Adrian Peterson fumbles all day.

. I agree, they have it in them to be a balanced attack, but it won't get that way with Martz. Lovie Smith has a huge amount of pressure to make the playoffs this year, and I don't see him doing it. This is likely his last year.

The more and more I watch his offenses, the more I wonder how much of a flash in the pan The Greatest Show On Turf was. He screwed our offense for two years, then yours for one. I think Lovie is a decent coach, but it's probably time for them to make a change anyway.

Jets are due for a slide this year - they were a .500 team that beat two teams that didn't try for 60 minutes to make the playoffs. They brought some me first losers in like LDT and are going to have a ton of pressure on them. Six wins

I guarantee you, if there's one thing they're dealing with at Vikings training camp, it's AP's fumbling problem.

I'd love to believe you, but unless Sanchez has an enormous sophomore slump, I don't see it happening. That offense isn't quite high powered though, a good defense could make it a stalemate.

Maybe they did but if anyone is, LT isn't a me first guy.

Losing Thomas Jones hurts, but Shonn Greene is emerging into quite a player. Sanchez still has a solid offensive line and Braylon Edwards, despite all his problems, has the ability to be a number one receiver. And their defense speaks for itself.

Sanchez hasn't convinced me like Matt Ryan has. It'll take a year or two for me to brand him as a great player. TJ is a huge loss, and I think Greene could be somewhere in his league, but not this year. Edwards has the ability, but just isn't performing the way he should. I think Santonio Holmes is gonna be the guy to go to there, and I think that will work out for them. If both don't pan out though, that offense is in trouble.

Sanchez is different than Ryan in that he just needs to manage the game and not lose, rather than go and win it. Their defense and running game made up for his inexperience as a rookie. Holmes and Edwards should perform, they both have a lot to prove. Holmes was a pretty solid performer who got the boot because he got into trouble.

Jets are my AFC Super Bowl pick.

All Day will never stop fumbling like crazy.
