WTF are you talking about?

We might as well pretend NE is in the AFC W and get rid of the Raiders, you really think you win all those division titles?

In other words, if you turn the AFC West into the by-far best division in the NFL by adding to the Patriots to it, do the Pats win all those division championships? No. Do they win most of them? Yes. Will they lose some of the bye years? Yes.
But it's a ridiculous hypothetical. If we put the Niners into the NFC East years ago and removed the weakest link -- the Eagles -- does that affect anything? Well, duh, yes.
A more realistic change is to swap the Pats (AFCE) and Colts (AFCS). Does much change? Nope.
Pats for Pack (NFCN). Much change? Nope.
YOUR argument is that the AFC East has offered no competition for the Patriots. Putting the Patriots into a division that had NO very weak teams doesn't make much sense. No team in the NFL has had to deal with that.

Your division is KEY to NE and their success... period, end of discussion. By your reasoning look at YOUR divisions record against other divisions not the other divisions against eachother.

Does that final sentence say what you want it to? I did look at the AFC East against other divisions. That's what I posted.
