Tom Brady is a year older, there's no Wes Welker, and even the Gronk is looking questionable with a forearm that refuses to heal properly. But the Pats' D is greatly improved, and they have a proven running game. The Pats will be more balanced than in previous years, but that could actually be a step back.....The Buffalo Bills, the one team I can count on to be predictably inconsistent year in and year out, have solidified their QB position. Yes, I believe Kevin 'Corn on the' Kolb is the answer. He's had a lot of bad luck with injuries and playing for teams with porous offensive lines...but for the first time since Flutie's departure, I feel the Bills can compete for the division. Even though I believe they'll still come up short. A 10-6 record is a definite possibility....The Dolphins had a surprising run with Ryan Tannehill. They were a tough out in spite of a lack of weapons, and it was pretty much over when he hit the rookie wall. If surrounded with more offensive talent, I think Tannehill could be the most improved of the rookie QBs....My feeling about my Jets this year is the same as last year: They will compete for next year's #1 draft pick. My prediction: Jets have a firesale, get the worst record, fire Rex Ryan, and draft Johnny Manziel next year.
AFC EAST PREDICTION
Patriots (10-6) (Win division on tiebreaker)
Bills (10-6) (Miss the playoffs due to a tiebreaker with wild card teams)
Dolphins (9-7)
Jets (2-14)

The Bills second? Really? I think the Dolphins have made much better moves in the off-season to challenge the patriots and
could make the playoffs. The Patriots, until someone actually takes the division from them will be predicted to win the
division. The Bills second? Really??? Maybe, but I'm not seeing it.

I think the divisions will end up like this:
AFC:
North: Steelers
South: Texans
East: Patriots
West: Broncos
WC: Colts
WC: Bengals
NFC:
North: Vikings (crazy?)
South: Buccaneers
East: Redskins
West: Seahawks
WC: Packers
WC: 49ers
SB: Texans vs Seahawks
Champions: Seahawks
Book it!

As usual, I will be disappointed.
Then I will turn to the Giants as my back-up hope.
Then they'll disappoint me, too.
And finally, I'll just spend the remainder of the season hoping the Patriots don't win their 112th Superbowl (or whatever number they're up to now.)
Sigh.
Sometimes it sucks to be a NY football fan.

I am hoping to go to a game when I'm in the states in October, but I'm worried I might miss out. I'm going to San Francisco on the 7th and miss 49ers & Raiders who both play on the 6th. I think when I'm in New York the Giants and Jets play away. I'll arrive there on the 12th and leave on the 19th, come back on the 26th and leave on 31st.
If I can't see an NFL game are there any other options like College games? Not sure how I would look for them.

L.A. doesn't currently have an NFL team. San Diego does though, which is a 2 hour drive.

I saw the Giants do this a few years ago and it just killed the crowd, who were like ,WTF? Can't sell the game internationally with pussy shit like that.
Playing games overseas or in Mexico just kills me. There are plenty of good American cities that could use a professional football team. Like Cleveland.
