The Bills has as much talent as the Browns. They will give a decent fight in the first half and then the better team will pull away in the 2nd. Game was boring as Hell to watch.
 
Last time we beat the pats we played man and aggressive. That is the only way we are going to win. Depends on how stupid our coaching staff is that day.

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.
Not getting that involved but NYJ were .480 Mia was .469 and Buf was .406.

There you go thank you very much. One team averages under 7 wins per season, other two under 8. SUCH STIFF COMPETITION. I bet during that time period you have less than 4 playoff wins among the three. now the North isn't much better cause the Bengals suck in the playoffs. but the Ravens have deep runs and a championship.
 
Where the pats ****** division comes into play is getting a bye in the playoffs. That is a huge part of their success. Their record is padded from that division so the get the bye far more often than they would if they had a t0ugher division.

it usually means they get a bye, then play one of the weakest playoff teams in the divisional round, then get the Championship at home. So many times their playoff road is just playing 1 tough team in the playoffs and if there is an upset, sometimes it’s not even that tough.

Last years they got Titans and Jags. Spare me that the Jags are tough. Steelers offense lit them up in the playoffs.
 
Didn't watch much of te game while I was at work last night but I just watched some low-lights...Gronk looks done or pret'near, don't you think? Brady keeps forcing it to him as well.
 
Heres some more stats for fun......These are all from 2001-2016

AFCN teams

Ravens (.570)
Bengals (.494)
Browns (.325)

In that time (not counting the Steelers) AFCN teams were above 500 19x

In that time AFCE (not counting the Pats) teams were above 500 16x

All in all its fairly close and for the record the Steelers were (.650) in that time.
