The AFC East is getting a lot of hype as a strong division. In reality, it is a bunch of mediocre teams who are padding their records by feasting on the bottom-dwellers of the AFC West and NFC West.
The Jets' win over Tennessee is the AFC East's only significant victory of the season. Look what the East has done outside its division. Nothing. They are 1-3 vs. the AFC North (with the Jets beating Cincy) and 2-2 vs. the South (Jets over Titans, Bills over Jags).

Right now everyone is talking about how the Pats will run the table to reach the playoffs and the Jets are contenders for the #2 seed. I expect every team in the East to stumble down the stretch, despite their easy schedules, with only team emerging to reach the playoffs.
