Here are the most interesting stories Sunday in the AFC East: Morning take: It’s a forgone conclusion that New England will clinch the division eventually. But a win for the Patriots could put that goal to bed now and have the team focusing more on the playoffs.
Morning take: We are about to find out where Tannehill stands against an elite quarterback. These are the games Tannehill must perform in to show growth and that he can be the franchise guy.
Morning take: We are going with the Bills on this one. They’ve been playing better as of late, although it hasn’t always resulted in victories.
Morning take: I doubt it. Sure, the schedule is easy. But this Jets team isn't consistent enough to win five in a row, no matter the opponents.
