Buffalo wins AFC EAST for the first time since 1995!
Its finaly over! 10 Years in a Row (2009-2018) and 16 out of the last 18 years the Patriots won the Afc East. Last Season they sneaked passed the Dolphins in Week 17 of the regular Season. Last year the leading Dolphins lost theire Week 17 Matchup against the Bills while the Patriots won in New York against the Jets to secure another Division Titel.
If you want to see another Division Winner than the New England Patriots you would have go back to the Year 2008 where Miami won the Division. The last time that the New York Jets where able to secure a division Title was back in 2002. But the longest period of waiting for a Titel is now officially over. After a surprising Win agains the Eagles the Bills end up with an 11-1 record after 13 Weeks of Regular Season and now cant be catched up by any Team in theire Division anymore. (6-6 Patriots, 4-8 Dolphins, 2-10 Jets). And now for the first time since 1995 Buffalo will win the Division Again.
The Team that missed the Playoffs last season despite a 10-6 record now even hopes for a bye week in Postseason. If you ask Fans in Buffalo the even better Season is easy to explain. Josh Allen, the Quarterback in his Sophomore Campain shows improvement on every level. More TD Passes, Less Interceptions, Higher Completion Ratio. When do we realize that we see an all time Great Bill on the Field here already? His 7.000 Carrer Yards rank 8th all time and his 48th TD pass surpassed Doug Flutie for 7th all time in Bills History. Did I mention that he didnt even finish his second Season yet? If Allen keeps improving he should finish Top 5 in all Categorys before he ends his Rookie Contract.
