New England Patriots fans won't be able to watch Mac Jones and Co. in Week 10, but there are still plenty of games on the schedule that will impact the playoff race in the AFC.
The Patriots enter their bye week in eighth place in the AFC standings at 5-4. They are a half-game out of a wild card playoff spot.
New England isn't the only team in the AFC playoff picture on a bye in Week 10. The Baltimore Ravens (AFC North leader), New York Jets (First wild card) and Cincinnati Bengals (9th place) also won't be in action.
