A lot of people talk crap about the AFC East saying that it sucks and that's why the Patriots are successful. I think they have it backwards. The rest of the AFC East "sucks" because for the last 16 years the Division Crown has been almost unattainable for them considering they have to beat out the Pats for it. The only times they managed it were in 2002 when we were still young and 2008 when Brady was hurt.
So basically they have to fight for a wild card spot and any playoff games are on the road.
Add in two extremely tough games (and often losses) every year from playing the Pats and it's tough to not "suck".
Playoff appearances since 2001:
Patriots: 15
Jets: 6
Dolphins: 3
Bills: 1
