Well Tom, I have to disagree with you again.

I'm not saying that Jax doesn't have a good defense, they do. But better than Miami's? Jax opponents are averaging 291 yards per game on offense. Miami's opponents are averaging over 315 yards per game. And Jax gets to play Cleveland again!

As far as the game against Oakland and Gannon's performance....Phil Simms kept saying the whole game that Gannon's injured wrist(left, not right) was not a factor. The simple fact is that Miami had a good gameplan and had the speed and talent to execute it.

And here's something else....the defenses that Jax has played against are giving up an average of 338 yards per game. The defenses that Miami has gone against are giving up an average of 306 yards per game, yet Miami is only an average of 6 yards per game behind Jax.

Now, who is the better team?

It's bad enough that Jax plays in that weak division, but they get to play these teams missing key players (i.e. Jets minus Vinny and Atlanta minus Anderson). Now, go look at Jax's schedule and look at Miami's and tell me who has the tougher road. LOL!!
