One of the biggest story lines of the year was the QB decision by the New York Jets. Rookie Mark Sanchez will be starting in one of the least stunning decisions ever.

The Jets are the unfortunate recipients of a 4 game suspension of OLB Calvin Pace, and DE Ellis has a one game suspension. As much as I respect Rex Ryan, I don't know if the Jets can overcome these two losses in their first game against the Texans.

They are not blessed with any sort of wonderful schedule. However they should be able to handle the Dolphins at least once, the Bills and likely take out the Patriots - but I would imagine they win at least 4 in division games (meaning they lose 4 as well). They have a good chance against the Saints because of their defense. Oakland, who beat the Jets last year, should not be a big challenge, and closing against Cincy is going to be interesting.

The Jets are going to rely on Dustin Keller this year. He's the key to the offense. Imagine a world where Sanchez to Keller happens for the next 5 or so years? It'd be great, and Washington out of the backfield? Potential up and down.
