AFC South getting easier actually hurts Pats very slightly

[Joey007]

It certainly makes it easier for Houston or Jacksonville. Tennessee is trash with Mariota at QB.

They’ve gone 9-7 three straight years with Mariota at QB. Not a very good QB but I’m not sure why suddenly now they can’t compete. Their roster didn’t get worse by any means.

Meh. You can't control what other teams do, you can only control what you do. Play better on the road.

Bit of a dumb premise for a thread

Also, no Andrew Luck makes Kansas City's schedule easier; which makes the #1 seed harder for NE to get.
