The Patriots are now the worst team, on paper, in the AFC East

It was inevitable, but no one expected it to happen so soon.

With Aaron Rodgers joining the New York Jets, the New England Patriots are now the worst team, on paper, in the AFC East.

That doesn’t mean the Pats are doomed to land in the basement. Last year, the Jets finished fourth with a 7-10 record. The Patriots came in third, at 8-9.

This year, however, the Dolphins seem to be better. The Bills are still the Bills. And the Jets are going all in with Rodgers.
