The New England Patriots have seen some drastic changes to their roster following their loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in the Super Bowl back in February. Although it seems that the storied franchise has been able to avoid the retirement of superstars Tom Brady and Rob Gronkowski, there's been quite a few notable veterans who have headed elsewhere in one way or another.

With all the changes that have transpired over the last few months, the division rival New York Jets may be smelling blood in the water. Wide receiver Quincy Enunwa recently made some interesting comments about the Jets and their chances to dethrone the Patriots in the AFC East during an appearance on SiriusXM NFL Radio, via Mike Florio's Pro Football Talk.

After brushing off his prior comments by saying “I just wanted to agree” with the hosts, Enunwa said as to the Patriots being vulnerable, “I think they may be.” Added Enunwa, “I also think that we’re capable of finally dethroning them. I think that we’ve always been. It’s just about getting over that hump of finishing games. Not to add more bulletin board material for them, but I think for us, we’re hyper-confident and believe that we can do that.”

Foretelling the end of an era for the Brady-led Patriots is bold, to say the least. Although Bill Belichick and company will fall off at some point or the team will merely break up for whatever reason, it may still be a bit early with Brady coming off a third season in which he was named NFL MVP.

In August, Brady will turn 41 with no telling how much longer he can continue to play at a high level under center in New England. Despite that fact, the Patriots are still the team to beat.

As for the Jets, New York drafted USC's Sam Darnold last week who is expected to be the new face of the franchise for the foreseeable future. Darnold will likely start his NFL career on the bench behind veteran Josh McCown, but it might not be long before he's given his shot under center and handed the keys to the franchise which could mark a momentous shift for the Jets.
