I like Allen and the Bills (a really distant 2nd behind Cincy and just above Carr and the Raiders), but I don't believe their division is a cake walk, either. I am sure Belichek has spent the offseason designing a defense to stop them, and both the Jets and Dolphins should be much improved. They will also face a first place schedule, like the Bengals.
If Tua and Wilson pan out, the AFC East could be just as tough as the AFC North, but that is a huge "if". With so many questions surrounding the Browns and Lamar's contract issues/lack of receivers, those teams that are expected to be such tough contenders in the AFC North could end up below .500 before all is said and done.
Great point on Dabol who was a fantastic OC for the Bills. Plus all the pressure on Allen to go to the SuperBowl could weigh
on that Offense. True about the AFC East kind of being a dark horse to be a better Division than ours. Could happen.
Also a team that hasn't been mentioned yet in the Colts has Matt Ryan, a good OL, Jonathan Taylor and a great running
game and Darius Leonard and a damn good Defense. I know the Colts choked their way out of the Playoffs but they could
be a tough team in the AFC.
BTW, will try to do my scouting of the Buffalo Bills within the next 2 days SHRacer.
