The whole Lawyer Milloy scenario was entirely different. First, he was a well liked/respected starter on the defense. His dismissal was a shock to most of the team which carried over into their game with us. Second, he was cut during the week before our game. What ever game plan the Pats* had couldn't be changed too much with so little time. Third, that Bills team was better than this one. Finally, Buffalo was playing their home opener.
This time, the Pats* are at home. DeVree is not in the same league as Milloy was. There is plenty of time for the Pats* to make changes to the game plan, which is probably not even finished yet anyway. Finally, Belichick won't make the same mistake twice.
Sadly, it will be Buffalo 6, New England 42.
