Beasts of the AFC East

Not only has everyone believed the AFC east to be the weakest division this year, but they also believed only 1 of the teams will make the Patriots. I'm here to tell you don't listen to everything you hear! Last night Geno Smith and the Jets proved that.
Records in the AFC:
The Patriots are 4-1 although definitely a shaky team the record still says they are 4-1. The Dolphins and the Jets are both 3-2 and both of these teams have had great starts. Even though they both have 2 ugly losses they both have young quarterbacks who have proved they could be HUGE for their teams. With every team losing this week in the AFC east, the Jets went into last nights road game again the Falcons with the mentality of winning. Geno Smith led his team to a 30-28 victory over the Falcons. 95% of sports analysts said the Falcons would win by 7, but not me. I predicted a 31-27 Jets victory and boy was I close! It is still too early in the season to be able to tell who will come out on top from the AFC East but Buffalo is definitely falling behind.

Pickups:
Fantasy owners let me tell you some advice. If you have not picked up a back-up quarterback yet then you should definitely look into grabbing Geno Smith if available. He has had 2 game with 27+ points and 1 with 15+ points.
As for other news the elite 3 are still undefeated at 5-0. The Saints, Chiefs, and Broncos all haven't lost a game yet. Peyton Manning and the Broncos, Drew Brees and the Saints, and Alex Smith and the Chiefs are all making a statement which screams Super Bowl potential.

If your fantasy team has an injured wide receiver I would look into claiming Cecil Shorts on Jacksonville as he is having a big season and unclaimed in most leagues. Lastly, many teams are struggling with their tight ends. You should look into grabbing Bennett of Chicago if you are struggling at this position. He has two games with over 15 points and one with 10. He could be a big asset and replacement if your TE is hurt.
