Fairly obvious that you have to specify Giants or Jets. And, there's a good contest to see which division is the weakest - AFC East (Buffalo, Jets, Dolphins) or AFC West (Raiders, Chiefs, Chargers). Throw in the Browns, Titans and Jaguars and the AFC is almost already narrowed down the field to a playoff contingent. Seven teams have a legit shot at the playoffs and one could argue that the Patriots and Broncos are prohibitive favorites to win their divisions leaving four playoff spots among the Texans, Colts, Steelers, Ravens and Bengals.

And yet I suspect some here will hit the panic button if the Texans start 2-3 which is quite possible if you check the schedule. Never fear. Even if that happens, 10-6 is almost guaranteed unless they get hit with a rash of injuries or misfortune.

But let me see if I can put my jinxing to work in week one:
