<p><strong>Record:</strong> 4-0</p> <p><strong>Signature Win: </strong>28-21 vs. Pittsburgh Steelers</p> <p><strong>Verdict: </strong>Buying</p>. AFC. East. New England Patriots. 1. player. 47

The New England Patriots were on bye during Week 4, making them the only 4-0 team in the NFL. The defending Super Bowl champions will return to action in Week 6 at the Indianapolis Colts.

If Andrew Luck plays, the Colts could give the Patriots a run for their money.

Regardless of what happens in Week 6 and beyond, New England is the easiest buy on this list. Not only are they a championship-caliber team, but they won the most recent championship.

Roster losses be damned, New England has been impressive.

The Patriots will have it tough in coming weeks, but not tough enough to panic. They won’t play the Denver Broncos until November 29 and are favored to win in just about every game from hereon out.

So long as Tom Brady and Bill Belichick are a part of the equation, the Patriots promise to be elite.
