It was a crazy weekend in the AFC East. Here are the most interesting stories Monday in the division:
  • The New York Jets (3-3) are back in first place after their blowout victory over the Indianapolis Colts.
Morning take: The Jets own the tiebreaker after head-to-head wins over the Buffalo Bills (3-3) and Miami Dolphins (3-3). New York also has more division wins than the New England Patriots (3-3). But will it last for New York?
  • Seattle Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman trash-talks New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady after their 24-23 win.
Morning take: Stay classy, Seahawks. Stay classy.
  • The Bills knocked out quarterback Kevin Kolb in an overtime win over the Arizona Cardinals.
Morning take: Buffalo took advantage of Arizona's shaky offensive line and pulled out a huge win.
Morning take: Miami certainly didn’t bring its "A" game. But it says a lot for the Dolphins when they can be outplayed statistically but still win a close game.
