Ranking the Buffalo Bills among the best teams in the AFC after Week 10
4. New England Patriots (6-4)
One team that has gotten better as the season has gone on has been the New England Patriots. They have turned back the clocks and are utilizing a similar game plan that they did early in Tom Brady’s career.
The Patriots used to win games with good defenses and not ask too much from their quarterback. That is exactly what they have done over the past four games by allowing an average of only 12.5 points per game and with Mac Jones only throwing on average 28 passes per game.
The results are four straight wins, including wins over the Chargers and Browns, and outscoring their opponents 150-50 during that stretch. If they continue to make these types of improvements, they aren’t going to lose many games and it wouldn’t be surprising to see them move up the rankings.
