Patriots play in the AFC East the easiest division in football for the last what 25 years ! What a joke every year is a automatic playoff berth LOL

Actually since the current division setup started in 2002 the AFC East has the best overall record of any division. ( 508-452-0 .529 win%) The NFC West has the worst record. (442-514-4 .463)

If you only look at the bottom 3 teams in each division by win% the Jets, Dolphins and Bills combined for 323-397-0 .449 which was better than 3 other divisions 3 worst teams.

Interesting although it doesn't feel that way LOL

Yes, KC is the better team.....don't take my word for it though, you will see

Better than who, NE or Pitt? I'll give you maybe Pitt. They are not better than NE, though. I'll never buy into an Alex Smith led team. He is good for one playoff win per season and that's his ceiling.

They are better then NE. I'm not impressed with the Patriots at all, KC is explosive on offense, has a return man in Tyreek Hill that can take it to the house at any time and another speed guy with Chris Conley....birth of those guys gave serious speed, they can also run the ball and have a very good defense on top of that.

The AFCE is what the NFCW used to be for the 49ers. I'd be embarrassed if I ran another AFCE team because there is no excuse to not improve over a decade.

Patriots are over rated and will not make the superbowl. Their best win was against Pittsburgh at Foxboro with no Ben, other then that they played

49ers
Cincy
Jets
Browns
Bears
Bills
Texans
Ravens
Dolphins with Matt Moore

That's 11 to 12 games right there. They lost to Seattle.

Smoke and mirrors

Sometimes I wonder if Bob Kraft is working behind the scenes to trick the other 3 teams into their front office & coaching hires because over the past 15 years the Bills, Jets & Dolphins have been that dysfunctional.

Playing in the AFC East this past decade has been a joke. Might as well give NE 6 byes to start each season

Yeah.

It's really baffling that the AFCE has yet to field an actual franchise QB since 2001 when the Pats began this roll.

The 9ers had that same luxury playing in the dreadful NFC West throughout the '80s and into the '90s.

I genuinely didn't realize that because it was before my time.

At some point you've gotta tip your cap, but it's pretty annoying that teams get that advantage of their main competitions ineptitude.

The AFCE has basically given the Pats HFA for a good amount of those years, which is huge considering they are 17-5 at home and 5-4 on the road postseason since their first Brady-BB super bowl run.

I always thought NE was the luckiest team in the league. And they are.

Not impressed with NE at all but are with KC? Haha to each their own. NE will beat KC by 14-21 in Foxoboro. Brady is infinitely better than Alex Smith.
Are you forgetting the game last year? It will happen again.
