AFC East currently has 3 teams bunched at 5-3
AFC North has 3 six win teams
AFC South has Texas 2 games up with 6-3 record
AFC West is brutal with 3 four win teams.

Looks like the East and North have 6 teams competing for 4 spots. Interesting how 4 of these 6 teams are defense first teams...Pitt, Cincy, Balt, Jets
Cincy has a brutal upcoming schedule with 4 games vs Pitt/Balt plus a date with the Texans

isn't there like half a football season to be played out or is it getting late early?

Solution: Do better than 11-5.

It's possible that this year plays out the way 2008 did, but more than likely the second half of the season will separate the contenders from the pretenders. It will sort itself out.

Looking at the Pats remaining schedule I think 11-5 is being fairly realistic. Very soft teams after the Jets. The Pats should win the majority of those and if they don't... well, that's obviously indicative of something wrong deep down with the team (Brady).

In summary, even if the Pats lose to the Jets they should still be in the hunt in my opinion. The Jets do have a easy schedule as well though so that does make me nervous.

Don't out think yourself - if we win this week (big if) then the jesters have to do two games better than us the rest of the way and we have an easy schedule other than Philly. If we lose I think we're going down anyway but a win gives us a nice path unless we screw it up.

Agreed....this is a must win

Easy..Pats win..they have a pretty good road


Pats lose..they are going to need a team to step up and beat the jets because they will be in the drivers seat

The first thing the Patriots must take care of; win the remaining 3 AFC East divisional match-ups. Everything else can be worried about from there on.

Nope, the solution is win the division, because it doesn't matter what your record is if you win the division.
