Rules 1, 2 and 3 of the Belichick-era, "First take care of the Division."
With Miami looking like it thinks that it might actually be competitive, I'll feel better when one team is out of the way; the Jets at a demoralized 2--3 after a national TV blowout will go a long way towards creating rancor in their club house and confusion among their management and ownership.
As for Homefield advantage, it would indeed be nice to have, but let's not get too carried away over it.
In the Belichick era, the Pats are 2--0 in SB's without Homefield Advantage and 1--2 in SB's with Homefield Advantage.
Overall, they have had Homefield Advantage four times and are one SB win, two SB losses and one Division Round exit in those years.
Are you suggesting there isn't any already? Their cluelessness is what has made this all possible.
