The black and blue division of the NFL.
It was a change at the top of the AFC West last season with the Kansas City Chiefs winning the division and clinching a first-round bye. The Raiders were back in the spotlight and made the playoffs for the first time since 2002, Denver took a significant step back and the Chargers played their last season in San Diego.
Out of every division in the NFL, this has by far been the weakest of them all. The Texans have won the division the last two seasons, the Titans are on the come up, the Colts are just mediocre and the Jaguars, well, they are still the Jaguars.
The Patriots have truly been the beasts of the east. No Brady in the team’s first four games in 2016, no problem. They won three of those four games. After winning its fifth Super Bowl in 16 years, they are out to win yet another one.
When you talk about a black and blue division, that’s the AFC North for you. These teams beat up on each other and they play a physical brand of football. You don’t see much of that these days.
