The Patriots narrow Sunday Night victory over Kansas City in Foxboro was one for the ages. These look like the clear top two teams in an AFC Conference that looks far more respectable now than it did to open the season. It may even be the superior conference right now.
If we put New England and Kansas City in the top tier of AFC franchises right now and at this point, that is a safe assumption to make, which franchise or franchises belong right behind the Patriots and Chiefs?
Unlike in the NFC, the second tier in the AFC looks just as clear as tier one. Four teams make up this group: Baltimore, Cincinnati, Los Angeles and Pittsburgh.
