Garrett Wilson is poised for stardom, while the running back situation could be an issue.
One year ago, it counted as “bold” just to declare that the Jets could sweep two games from the Patriots and win nine games .So, what are The Post’s five bold predictions for these brash Jets and the upped ante?A stat that recently has been making the rounds says it all: The Colts, who last played in the AFC East in 2001, have won the division six times since 1970 compared to the Jets’ two.
The days of the Patriots’ reign – 16 division titles in 17 seasons, with one for the Dolphins in between – are over, but now the Bills are the three-time defending champions.The Bills are favored to make it a four-peat, but Josh Allen no longer is the unquestioned best quarterback in the division.The best part of this for fans? The first home playoff game since a 41-0 trouncing of the Colts on Jan. 4, 2003, at the old Giants Stadium.
The worst part? Falling one win short of the Super Bowl for the fifth time since 1982. The AFC is just too loaded.Offensive Rookie of the YearDon’t be fooled by the award’s name: Offensive Player of the Year has become Best Non-Quarterback of the Year because MVP almost always is a quarterback.Garrett Wilson is poised for a huge second season.
But the possibilities are endless for Wilson after he had 83 catches for 1,103 yards and four touchdowns last season with the Jets’ quarterback carousel, and then earned Rodgers’ trust with his route-running, athleticism and sure-handedness during training camp.Aaron Rodgers sets the franchise single-season records for touchdown passes and passing yardageRodgers has thrown 31 or more touchdowns seven times in 15 years as a starter, including as recently as his 2021 MVP season.
All that said, Rodgers is coming off a “down year” of 26 touchdowns and 3,695 yards with the Packers when he played through a broken thumb while throwing to mostly unproven receivers, so a return to greatness count is no guarantee.Hey, it can’t be all smooth sailing, right?
