This is a naive post to say the least.

The Pittsburgh Steelers are an equally well run organization. They are "out of contention" (or at least will be very soon).

Very true. Even evil empires crumble sometime.

They WERE a well-run organization. I'm not so sure they still are.

The Patriots Are a well-run organization and will probably remain so
unless their owner croaks unexpectedly.

Just to be clear...the Patriots haven't won a Super Bowl in almost a decade. Let's back off a little on the Patriot worship.

They are 4-0 after losing a star player to a homicide investigation, losing their best WR and even having a better player who many consider the best at his position in the NFL not play all year, and they just keep winning and winning.

You don't have to win the super bowl to prove the nay sayers were wrong.

I was saying it was over for the patriots this year after they lost welker, hernandez, and with gronk ailing...

But what happened? I had to clean the egg off my face.

Patriots are never done. With all the injuries they had/have, they will still find ways to win games. The only they take a step down is if brady gets injured.

A Ravens fan talking shit? You are still the champions - until the Superbowl. You should act like it because the Ravens will be watching it from home. Ravens will be insignificant.

I swear the Pats are doing this with smoke and mirrors, but you got to hand it to them so far they have held on.........I just can't believe that will continue thru the season. Lets see how they do this Sunday

The Pats have played a bunch of cupcakes so far (with the exception of the 1-3 falcons). The combined record of the teams they have beat is 5-13. They make the playoffs every year because of T.B, BB, and being in a weak division. When you combine that with their weak schedule this year, they will make the playoffs again.

But lets be real, is making the playoffs enough for this organization? I think not. Do they really have the talent to make a superbowl run? I think not.

Again, they will win plenty of games, but they need less injuries/suspensions and more talent around T.B to be a legit contender.

Saying the AFC East is a weak division has no validity. There are only a total of 6 losses combined and 3 of those are head to head inside the division. Total of 3 losses outside the division. Note also that one of Buffalo's losses is their 5th game, without that loss it would only be 5 losses for AFC east.

The only division with fewer losses is the AFC West with 5 losses - only 1 in division. Total of 4 losses outside the division.

Regardless...... It has been considered one of the weaker divisions in football the past few years with the exception of the Pats. I don't think many people consider the AFC East a powerhouse division.

Oh no you didn't! You did not just throw some baseless speculation at me!

Wilfork has demanded double teams, he is a big loss for them.
