Fortunately for New England, they still play in a joke division and have a cupcake schedule. They'll be fine.

Week 15: Ravens vs Jets, Pats @ Bengals, Queefs vs Denver. Advantage: New England, then Baltimore, then Queefs
Week 16: Ravens @ Browns, Pats vs Bills, Queefs @ Bears. Advantage: Baltimore, then Pats, then Queefs
Week 17: Ravens vs Steelers, Pats vs Miami, Queefs vs Sparklers. Advantage: Pats by a long shot. Then Baltimore, then Queefs

Only way I think NE would be in trouble is if they dropped to the #3 seed but as you can see they have a much much easier schedule remaining than KC and Baltimore.

A bigger problem looming for them is what a pile of trash awaits KC in the WC round. Does anyone in their right mind think Buffalo or Tennessee or Pittsburgh have the offenses to take KC out in the first round? What NE needs is for Baltimore to stumble down the stretch so they can reclaim the #1 seed and we'd see BAL/KC in round two. I don't think NE has the offense to outlast KC in round two and then go to Baltimore and win an AFCCG.

NFC playoffs look infinitely better, with talented and fun to watch teams from top to bottom. I really hope the NFCE winner is 6-10 and gets to host a 12-13 win NFCW runner up.
