2025 AFC East Division NFL Betting

The AFC East ranks with the AFC West for its history and tradition. Like the AFC West, the AFC East was founded in 1960 when the American Football League was founded. All four of its members have been in the division since opening their doors for business. The New England Patriots, Buffalo Bills, and New York Jets were 1960 AFL charter members. Meanwhile, the Miami Dolphins were born into the AFL East as a 1966 expansion team. The Houston Oilers, now the Tennessee Titans, were born into the division as AFL charter members as well, but moved to the AFC Central (now AFC North) when the AFL and NFL merged in 1970. The Oilers/Titans are now in the AFC South.

Of course, the AFC East became known as the personal property of the New England Patriots and then, in more recent years, the Buffalo Bills. Starting in 2001, New England won the division every year but two through the 2019 season. Since then, the Buffalo Bills have taken the AFC East title for the past five years.

In 2023, it looked like the Miami Dolphins would win the AFC East for the first time since 2008. But Miami imploded at the end of the season, allowing Buffalo to steal the crown from the Dolphins in Miami on the final day of the regular season.

Miami was once a close second in preference to Buffalo to win the AFC East in the future market. These days, that is no longer the case. So, too, were the Jets also a popular choice with Aaron Rodgers as QB, but he is now gone, as is the hope for glory. The once-dominant Patriots are considered a long shot by gamblers to reclaim their past AFC East glory.

Miami is burdened with concerns about quarterback Tua Tagovailoa. Tua has missed considerable playing time with injuries through the years. Miami is certainly going to need Tagovailoa for a run at the division title. Fans and gamblers have not forgotten Miami’s previous failures, especially last season. The Dolphins often looked like they didn’t want to be on the field, especially in cold-weather games. Thus, they have a reputation for being a soft team, especially under the meek head coach Mike McDaniel.

Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills have shown the resilience and fight that Miami lacked at crunch time. Buffalo will not surrender and go away without a serious fight. Josh Allen remains a premier quarterback, and head coach Sean McDermott has proven he can rally his team, even during downtimes.

Buffalo is the new team to beat in the AFC East after two decades of dominance from New England. The Bills have won five straight AFC East division titles and are the favorites again entering the 2025 campaign.

The New York Jets' futility is stunning. Their only moment of glory was Super Bowl III, when they pulled off the greatest upset in football history in a 16-7 win over the Baltimore Colts, who were favored by 18 points. Currently, they have the longest postseason drought of any team in the NFL, and the Jets haven’t won a division title in more than two decades.
