On Wednesday morning, ESPN’s “Get Up” had a segment asking which team is the best in the AFC.
Only two answers were tossed around among the four analysts: the Kansas City Chiefs and New England Patriots. Dominque Foxworth argued the Chiefs are still the best team in the AFC despite their early struggles.
Meanwhile, Dan Graziano, Jeff Saturday and Mike Greenberg all had the Patriots as the team to beat in the AFC. In fact, Greeny went a step further saying Bill Belichick is a lock to win the NFL’s Coach of the Year award.
“I think this is the best coaching job he’s ever done,” Greenberg said. “And the Patriots are the team to beat.”

It’s difficult to argue with the incredible winning streak the Patriots have been on over the past few weeks. After starting the season with a 2-4 record, New England now owns six-game winning streak and sits atop the AFC East.
Rookie quarterback Mac Jones is playing like a seasoned veteran and the defense is playing lights out.
There are other candidates for Coach of the Year including Matt LaFleur, Kliff Kingsbury and John Harbaugh.
Who should win?
