It’s the Buffalo Bills in front and three teams trying to keep up in the AFC East. What else is new?
After the first two weeks of the 2024 season, the Bills are the only team in the division with a pair of wins. The Miami Dolphins are in a three-way tie with the New England Patriots and New York Jets, although it’s Miami that sits at the bottom of the list, thanks to a tiebreaker.
With plenty of jockeying for position left to do over the next four months, the divisional standings look like this:
- Buffalo Bills: 2-0 (1-0 in division)
- New England Patriots: 1-1
- New York Jets: 1-1
- Miami Dolphins: 1-1 (0-1 in division)
The Dolphins sit at the bottom because they’re the only team with a divisional loss. The Jets and Patriots are set to play in Week 3, so one of those two teams will drop down to 1-2 with an 0-1 divisional record next weekend.
With Tua Tagovailoa out of action after suffering another concussion in a blowout loss to the Buffalo Bills, the Dolphins have bigger things to worry about than their one-game deficit in the AFC East race, though.
