As a Jets fan, 9.5 seems dangerous high, bordering on hubris. I just don't have that kind of faith in Rodgers, either on a skill or health level, and while the O-line looks better already, I'm not sure I buy into it yet. The defense and the Breece/Justin combo on offense will still win a bunch of games, but I've still been burnt more often than not when I allow myself optimism as a Jets fan.
(That said, I'm totally there with the NE prediction and will dance a jig if Pats fans have to go through a second sub-five-win season)
I think over 9.5 would require Rodgers to be healthy and a top 10 QB. Doesn't need to be MVP but he can't be just a guy either. Not sure I would bet on that but I hope the Jets have a good season.
