Despite the injuries and their 3-3 record thus far the Patriots are still going to win the East with simplicity this year. None of the other 3 teams in this division are even close to their level right now. Think about this:
The Patriots have gone 3-3 with:
1. The toughest schedule in football
2. An abundance of injuries to key players, including the loss of Rodney harrisson and the omition of now returned Tedy Bruschi. Seymour hasn't played in 3 weeks, Dillon has NOT been healthy at any point this season, their starting LT Matt Light is out, and they seem to have a whole different group of players starting in the secondary every week.
3. 3 tough road games already.
If the Pats had the Colts' pansy schedule(teams with combined 11-26 record) they would probably be 6-1 or 7-0 as well.
