Week Five 2009 - Jet Kingdom Throne Picks
Jet Kingdom picks the AFC East match ups and scores for week five of the 2009 NFL season. This week we pick the Patriots in Denver, the Browns in Buffalo and the New York Jets in their home away from home, Miami against the Dolphins.
Week Four Results
The streak ends for everyone, the Jets and our picks as we slid to 0-3 last week. We thought the Ravens would be able to catch balls in New England, that the Bills had a backbone in Miami and the Jets could win a close one in New Orleans. Wrong. Wrong. Wrong.
Just like Braylon Edwards, we are off to a fresh start this week.
New England Patriots (3-1) at Denver Broncos (4-0)
Once again another coach goes up against his former head coach as the undefeated Broncos take on the Patriots. The Broncos are playing great on defense but the Patriots are just getting started. Expect Tom Brady to get a few more roughing the passer calls and a win in Denver.
Patriots: 23 - Broncos: 20Cleveland Browns (0-4) at Buffalo Bills (1-3)
This has to be one of the most unwatchable games of the year and with the Browns trading away any hope of a win, it only helps the Bills get back on their feet. It is always hard to play in Buffalo and no matter what quarterback head coach Eric Mangini puts on the field, it won't matter. Expect the Bills to play smarter offense and run the ball all game for the win.
Browns: 13 - Bills: 19New York Jets (3-1) at Miami Dolphins (1-3)
The hype on this game just got turned to eleven as the Jets go out and pick up a big time receiver to help out with the offense. New weapon Braylon Edwards won't have a lot of time to practice, but he will challenge those rookie Dolphin corners. It comes down to the rookie quarterbacks and mistakes. Who makes them and who recovers from them.
Keys to the Castle: Time to shore up the run defense and make Chad Henne work for every yard down the field. Wildcat or not, the Dolphins are going to try and run it a ton and defensive play caller, Rex Ryan has to dial up a defense to stop it.
Jets: 28 - Dolphins: 24
Come back next week for a recap of the Jets and to see how we did in our Throne Picks.
Go Jets!
