It ain't the division
I don't think it's that they arent able to win outside the division.....its that they are essentially guaranteed a 1st round bye that makes playing in the EAst such an advantage....
Guaranteed 5-6 wins a year since early 2000s.....
That basically guarantees at least a 1st round bye
That said I dont know if it would much matter. Brady and hoodie are best to ever do it.
But having to play one less game each playoffs and usually always at home does help immensely
If they played in say the North and had to play pitt/cinci/Baltimore 6xs a year they wouldnt have had as many 1st place seeds, but hard to argue they wouldnt have made it to the big game regardless
As a Pat's fan let me ask....who do you think is more crucial....bill or brady?
Would Brady have won 6 with any coach? Would bill have won 6 with any QB? Probably not but who woulda won more without the other?
