0:00.0	Welcome to the 2025 AFC East preview here on the Locked On network.
0:05.9	This is the 2025 Locked-on NFL season preview.
0:11.0	Only on the Locked-on podcast network, your team every day.
0:16.7	What's going on?
0:17.6	Everybody, welcome to the 2025 AFC East divisional preview here on the
0:22.4	Locked On Network. I am Kyle Crabs of Locked on Dolphins. I'm joined by John Butchco of Locked
0:27.0	on Jets, Joe Marino of Locked on Bills and Nick Cattels of Locked on Patriots. And we're here to

1:45.7	to maintain their success. And I think nothing is more important than Josh Allen's availability.
1:49.6	But the other reason would be that one of these other teams catches lightning in a bottle,
