Pats definitely improved their defense but at some point, their bad drafts where they think they're outsmarting everyone will catch up to them. Won't be this year as Brady is still good but it's a house of cards built on Brady allowing them to be crowned geniuses by drafting in a way no one understands but calls genius bc Brady makes Bellichek look brilliant.

Pats are the favorite to win the division.

After them I think the Bills/Jets/Fins are all on equal footing as WC contenders.

I like the Jets defense but you can't say they are without a doubt better than Buffalo's defense when Buffalo had a top 5 pass defense and addressed the run defense issues by revamping their linebacker unit. They will have a very stout run defense but their pass defense is suspect as they don't pressure the QB and have Milliner and a rookie McDougle as there DB linchpins. Pryor is a nice safety but is a run thumper who's suspect in coverage. They have to face Brady 2x and the Bills WRs 2x. Buffalo split with the Jets last year and the game they lost was bc our 5th DB Just Rogers had to play all game due to injury and gave up about 300 yards by himself. He's no longer on the team.

The Dolphins blew their load last year in FA and had a bizarre draft. Not going to worry about them although I'd suspect until Buffalo stops finishing last in the AFCE, everyone else thinks the same about the Bills.
