As things stand right now, the Patriots are at No. 3, and they would face either the Bengals or Steelers in the wild card round, and then, the Broncos the following week in Denver in a divisional playoff game. If they dropped to No. 4 – mostly likely, into a tiebreaker they would lose with the Ravens – they would face the Colts in the first round at Gillette, and then, on to a meeting with the Texans. On paper, those are far more favorable matchups than the idea of traveling to Denver and facing the Broncos, particularly when you consider the fact that the Patriots had no issue beating Houston and Indy.

Hobbled by knee and ankle injuries in recent weeks, Spikes appears to be the most banged-up player on the Patriots’ defense. He didn’t play the first series of Sunday night’s game for injury reasons, according to coach Bill Belichick, and he also didn’t finish the game for a second straight week, replaced by Niko Koutouvides. Behind Spikes, the Patriots don’t have any players with much experience on defense, so getting him healthy for January will be important.
