The Pats will be as good as they always are and, until the rest of the teams in the division get real QB's that can out duel Brady, the beast in the east will still be the Pats. Only thing of uncertainty is by how many games they lead the 2nd place team.
Having said so, this might be the year, with the Pats having to overcome all the challenges of having to defend their throne, where said lead could dwindle some ..... down from what has been a 6+ win lead on the 2nd place teams these last 5 or so years.
Pats 12-4
Bills 10-6
Jets 10-6
Miami 8-8
