So against quality teams the Patriots are 5-1, while the Jets are 2-2. The Pats average 28.5 points for, 22.7 points against. The Jets average 17.0 points for, 14.0 points against.
So say what you will about the Pats defense but 6 of their 11 games have been against good teams. If the playoffs started today the Jaguars and Jets would be the only AFC playoff teams the Patriots haven’t beaten.
If the Pats win Monday Night and the Colts rebound and win the AFC South, New England will have beaten every AFC playoff participant. Sorry Kansas City, I think the Chargers are taking the AFC West.
