Pats* have really benefited from their shity division. I mean they get 5 wins a year by virtual default. The Browns certainly are brutal but the Ravens and The Bengals are perennially powerhouses compared to the **** in that division. And the Pats* get the division sown up before Thanksgiving. That is a lot of pressure off. Pretty hard to come up with a division consistently as bad as the Jets, Dolphins and Bills
12-6 PATS. We can beat this Pats team.
IF we don't have too many penalties, AND the pass rush plays well AND, we don't lose the turnover battle, yes we can.
I didn't say that. I said there division is ****** weak and gets sown up very early. Mr. Stat why don't you look at the other teams in that time period and see how many times the second place team exceeded 9 wins compared to how many times it was less than 8.This is a dumb argument from 2001 - 2016 the Pats are 120 - 38 (.759) outside the division. This is playing a number 1 schedule as well. Inside the division the Pats are 76 - 22 (.776). Not much difference. Against playoff teams the Pats are #1 again 51 -31 with the Steelers #2 at 43 - 46. The Pats can be hated for whatever reasons, but to say they win because their division sucks is an ignorant argument.
