Cuomo Should Take a Knee in Buffalo

‘Bills fans have suffered through four consecutive Super Bowl losses, a 17-year-long playoff drought (the 2000-16 seasons) and a 25-year division-title famine. We know the risks of Covid-19, and we also know that we haven’t had a home playoff game since December 1996. It’s time for the politicians and health bureaucrats to take a knee and allow us to be reunited with our team in our stadium.’

‘”I just look at it as the next game,” McDermott said Wednesday of the Week 16 matchup. “They’re a good team, we have a tremendous amount of respect for them and how they do things, what they do in terms of how they’ve been able to win multiple, multiple division titles.”‘

‘A pair of offensive stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: Buffalo enters the contest with 289.6 passing yards per game on average, good for third best in the league.

‘The key to containing Allen will be to get pressure while also not allowing him to escape to the outside — especially to his right. Allen has thrown for 366 yards, six touchdowns, and no interceptions when escaping pressure to the right side of the field, per Pro Football Focus and Tru Media. Going to his left, it’s 160 yards, two touchdowns, and one pick. Getting into his line of vision without allowing him to roll right and load up that cannon on his arm is key to stopping the Buffalo passing attack. The Patriots have been below-average at generating pressure this year, though, per PFF and Tru Media, notching a sack, hit, or hurry on 32.8 percent of opponent dropbacks against a league average of 37.6 percent.’

‘They know they can beat this team, have everything rolling for them, and know the Patriots are down and have nothing to play for. They should approach this game with a desire to show the entire country, on national television, that they aren’t just AFC East Champions this season, but that the division will go though them for the foreseeable future.’

‘Expect the Bills to feature both Devin Singletary and Zack Moss like they did during the first matchup with the Patriots earlier in the season. New England has allowed an average of 218 rushing yards per game in their last two matchups. If there was ever a time to try and get the run game going for the playoffs, it would be now.’
