NFL Week 8 AFC East Power Rankings: Which Team will be Studs or Duds?

Coach Rex Ryan of the New York Jets has developed a proven formula on how to defeat the New England Patriots this season. Although the Jets are dead even in the win category against the Patriots, their overtime win in week 7 was a feel good moment for a team that desperately needed another win to stay above 500 in the torrid AFC East.

The Jets remain one game behind the Patriots and Rex Ryan is no longer on the hot seat.

As a result of drumming up a winning game plan that overpowered the Patriots in a gritty overtime win, the Jets gain new life going into their week 8 matchup against the Bengals.

Each and every Jets fan would rather forget the 2012 NFL season, recalling when the Jets only won 6 games. Does Gino Smith have enough fire power to compete against a stout Bengals defense, or will Gino Smith and the Jets be a dud going into a week 9 matchup against the New Orleans Saints?

The Patriots receivers are still struggling to find their identity this season and Tom Brady is not having the season he hoped he would have – due to growing pains of Danny Amendola and Aaron Dobson.

Tom Brady faces a “Dr Jekyll and Mr. Hyde” Miami defense. Can Tight End Rob Gronkowski be an effective X-Factor in Tom Brady’s air attack?

Will the Patriots defense be able to keep up with an evolving Miami ground attack?

A struggling Buffalo Bills defense is at a standstill trying to find their identity, this does not fare well as they face the high powered offense of the New Orleans Saints.

Can the Bills cover the point spread as fantasy duds, or will the Saints run up the fantasy point score, 40-0?
