That's great - the point is that if the teams in the AFC East could come up with any kind of quality over a sustained period, the Patriots would play WORSE than their record against opponents who are less familiar with them and are playing without divisional tensions on the line.
You're not really going to argue that those haven't been 3 of the 5 worst run teams in the AFC for the last 20 years, are you? The Dolphins are probably the MOST successful of the lot and the best you can say about them is that they aren't generally embarrassing.
It's a bad division.
