I have faded the New England Patriots all season long, but they don’t care what I think and have emerged as a darkhorse in the AFC. With a Top 10 offense in both rushing and passing, along with a the 15th ranked defense, Bill Belichick is finding a way to compete post-Tom Brady.
Meanwhile, the Atlanta Falcons have somehow won four games this season despite the 27th ranked offense. I’ve picked against them almost every week and every time I think maybe they are better than I think, they lose. Kind of the Denver Broncos of the NFC if I am being completely honest.
