Not that NY is not good, but they have several attackable weaknesses, and did very little to strengthen those areas. Yes they got Boley and Canty, but their DLine was not questioned. Their safeties and WR's are their weak links. Also, as I said earlier, their OLine has been together for 3yrs without injury, if they do that again then a) it would be a statistical fluke, and b) they would scare me a little more. Without Plax their play and offense declined significantly, and now they also lost an outstanding DC.
This will very likely be a down year for them (probably 7-9 or 8-8, they will still beat up on the AFC West)
