‘Patriots 38, Bills 9.’

‘Springs downplayed things a bit, particularly when he was called the “T.O. Stopper.” “I don’t know about that,” he said. “All that’s in the past; each year is different with him. You play a guy like that, you see where you’re at because he’s going to try and dominate any opponent and he comes out and he works really hard so you have to be ready for him. The good thing about him is, either you’re going to be the bug or the windshield. One of the two. And you have to like playing against guys like that.”‘

‘How bad are the Bills? Really bad. Terrible, really. Horrible, actually. So bad that they make the Detroit Lions seem like a Super Bowl team in comparison.’

‘Patriots win, 35-7.’

‘”He’s all about the circus show and the cameras, and it’s all about that. But you best believe he’ll have Shawn Springs in his grill and Brandon Meriweather will be putting his helmet down his throat,” Harrison said. “He’s just so, so miserable. He wants to seek so much attention. I don’t know. Something happened a long, long (time) ago, before we even knew T.O., that just made him like this. The guy is such a phenomenal talent, but his clown antics and his tactics just take away, year after year.”‘
