How the AFC shakes out 1/4 into the season
There are 2 undefeateds the Colts and Pats at 4-0(assuming the Pats win tomorrow which i think they will)
1 team at 3-1 Pittsburgh and 2 at 2-1 Tennessee and Jacksonville because of the bye
5 teams at 2-2 HOU,BAL,CLE,OAK,DEN
5 teams at 1-3 NYJ,BUF,SD,KC,CIN(like i said assuming they lose to the Pats)
and one at 0-4 MIA(Who we play next week)
At the moment the playoffs would look like this
AFC East:NE
AFC North:PIT
AFC South:IND
AFC West DEN(tiebreaker over OAK since they beat them already)
Wildcard is what were playing for at the moment and if you look at the teams from 2-1 through 1-3 there are 12 teams within a game of each other for 2 spots
Looking at the schedule we play 6 of those teams(TEN,JAX,CLE,DEN,SD,OAK) and TEN and JAX twice making it 8 games against wild card teams while the remaining are against the NFC(NO,TB),crappy MIA and one against the Colts.
So dont get down on this loss its a game we should of won but the big ones are against the wild card teams so if we are tied at the end of the season we win the tie breakers and get in.
And we all know the playoffs are a whole new season.
