Which team will win the AFC title in 2009

ColtsFan4Life · 05-12-2009, 07:45 AM

Could it be the Dolphins?

Could be.....You never know lol

I have no reason to think that the Steelers won't be back in top form yet again this year... There are still some questions in the Pats camp this year and think they're a possible meltdown away from tragedy (this season)... They'll be back on top as soon as NEXt year, but this year, I think the Curtain might just be able to "peat"...

I think the three that have the biggest chance to win are the Pats, Steelers, and Colts. All three have big chances and I think it may come between the Colts and Steelers.

As long as Tom Brady is healthy how can you not go with the Patriots

Steelers vs Titans in the final with the Steelers taking it.

Haves and have nots here.

Ravens, Steelers, Colts and Patriots. Pick one of them out of a hat and that is your AFC champ.

I am going with the Pats. I think they will be on a mission to get back into the post-season. I think the sub-par Steeler line will eventually catch up to Big Ben. Colts have a new coach and big questions down the middle of their defense. Ravens are my dark horse. QBs make their biggest strides in Year Two. Flacco could give them their best offense in Post-Cleveland history, enough to off-set so-so CBs.

Steelers vs. Patriots with the Pats taking it IMO. With Brady back they can only improve over 11-5....

Browns17 · 05-13-2009, 07:38 PM

Patriots I think are the most likely candidates. They went 11-5 last year without Brady and in one of the leagues tougher divisions last season. They really lost no offensive starters besides FB Heath Evans and they lost slot man Jabar Gaffney. They have the reigning DROY in Mayo to go with Bruschi and a healthy Adalius Thomas. Add one of the best D-Lines in the NFL plus an upgraded DB core with the additions of Springs and Bodden with Terrence Wheatley who played very well in his rookie campaign last season.

I don't see anyone other than Pitt giving them a run for their money.

With Brady healthy, Pats are a near lock.

I think it'll be the Chargers, Phillips Rivers was amazing last year, LT will have help from Sporles and I think he'll be better in a role where he's not the feature back and they share carries it could work very well. Than the return of Shawn Merriman and the new draft pick Larry Englush will really booster this defense. Chargers over Patriots in the AFC Title Game

Thats a good perspective. But I think without LT at his best the Chargers still wont be as good.

I think LT has a better year, he didn't do good last mostly because of injuries, now he's healthy and he's getting a lot less carries because they really want to give the ball to Sporles (who I'm convinced is never going to be a feature back) Less carries means less hits for LT and this will really be the first year he's had a partner who can spell him and keep him healthy. I see him being rejuvanated *spelling*
