Schedule is one of those things that is set though, it's not like the NCAA where you can pick your opponent. The Patriots got the Colts every single year because teams play against like conference opponents the remaining years. So yeah, the Pats got the Jets and Bills and Dolphins, but that also guaranteed them the Colts and Broncos and Ravens or Steelers every single year too.
Also, true story, but there's only one division who has had two teams make at least two appearances in the AFC title game since 2010....the AFC East. I don't think the AFC East has been any better or worse than the AFC South or West during that period. Only the AFC North can truly claim to be tough, it's had three consistently good teams the last 5-6 years.
