azgreg Who had the Pats as a 1 seed preseason?
Many analysts thought they could make the playoffs. But no one that I know of saw them as the number 1 seed.
And it’ll be interesting to see how they handle missing two offensive linemen. One being # 1 pick Will Campbell. Out for 4 weeks.
The consensus seems to be that they’re a year ahead of schedule. This season has been a pleasant surprise. Weak schedule or not.
