"Count Tom Brady among those who believes that the Patriots are starting to validate their status as a legitimate contender in a wide-open AFC field. The Patriots legend and current Fox broadcaster unveiled his weekly power rankings on Tuesday, handing New England the No. 3 spot - the highest-ranked club in the AFC. Only the Eagles (No. 1) and Rams (No. 2) stood in front of the Patriots in Brady's latest rankings."
""New England breaks into the top three with a convincing win in Tampa. What more is there to say? The knock on this team had been their schedule, but they went into a hostile environment and beat a great team that was playing well heading into the game," Brady said of his former team. "Shoutout to Stefon Diggs, who's given this locker room a whole new attitude throughout this seven-game winning streak.""
New England improved to 8-2 after a hard-fought victory at Tampa Bay, extending a seven-game winning streak. The team occupies the No. 3 spot in Tom Brady's weekly power rankings and stands as the highest-ranked AFC club behind only the Eagles and Rams. The win addressed concerns about a soft schedule by defeating a strong Buccaneers team on the road. Stefon Diggs has energized the locker room and contributed to the team's momentum. Veteran offseason additions have increased depth and experience across the roster. The Patriots lead the AFC East by two games and face challenging upcoming matchups against the Bills and Ravens.
