Interesting.

Let's see, the Patriots are 7-5...
Defeated:
Bills (4-8)
Falcons (6-6)
Ravens (6-6)
Titans (5-7)
Bucs (1-11)
Dolphins (6-6)
Jets (6-6)
Lost to:
Jets (6-6)
Broncos (8-4)
Colts (12-0)
Saints (12-0)
Dolphins (6-6)
So, through 12 games... they've played 3 teams with records better than .500 and lost all 3. They have split with the Dolpins and Jets, both 6-6. And, they smacked around the Bills (by 1 point), Titans and Bucs.
I never looked at it like that, but yeah... they've been very underwhelming and yet, they're still leading the AFCE by a game. They're fortunate in that regard.
