Just noticed that Hogan was inactive against the Steelers yesterday.  I wonder if the shoulder is still hampering him or if he's been passed on the depth chart.  

FiveThirtyEight: What Gronk Does For The Patriots Offense

Plenty of things went sideways down the stretch of Patriots-Steelers on Sunday.

Run the wishbone, and zero punts no matter the down or distance. Play after the snap on defense. Victory!

 

I honestly feel that the best way to defeat the Patriots would be to do something that they totally would not expect. That is to have Taylor play QB from the pocket, throw the ball deep and for the offense to run plays at a fast pace. Belichick will have a spy on Taylor taking someone out of the Pats coverage and their defense will 100% be keying on stopping McCoy. I know it goes against everything you think you would need to do to defeat them, but I feel that the only chance is Taylor proving himself capable of being a pocket QB and having the Bills be up by double digits at halftime. Once the Pats defense gets tired and start having to respect the passing game, then Shady would come more into the game plan in the second half. I'd challenge Taylor to stay in the pocket and deliver the football in the first half.

A lot of Joe Webb wildcat could be a help. Also I would put Tyrod and Peterman on the field at the same time. Spread Tyrod our wide, maybe have him catch a pass behind the line and throw deep. Or just let him be a decoy, catch and run. Have a Peterman,Tyrod and Webb all on the field together. A pass could come from any of them. Try something different.

He hasn't been able to prove it in the last few years...what makes you think he can do it on the road against any team ?......and specifically a Belichick coached defense.....our only chance is to have Shady go off....and I think he can....

Running Shady into an eight man front is a fools game plan that will keep the game decently close, but the Bills will have an extremely low chance to pull off the win because the passing game won't be there in the 4th quarter because they probably wouldn't be in rhythm, and be down by about 10 points, a point when Pats defense would then be expecting the pass. Just challenge Taylor to do it, tell him it's the best way to catch the Pats off guard and see what happens. Tell him the truth that no one in the league thinks he can do it and he's being given the chance prove all of the doubters wrong.

I have a hunch the pocket is EXACTLY where Belichick wants him to operate from as well.

The idea is sound. But the O line cannot protect a pocket as far as I can tell.
 But because everyone knows that, it would be the best way to outsmart the Demon.
 

No one expects the Spanish Inquisition either...

Exactly. Have some fun out there. Webb Peterman and Taylor and a heavy set.
Go Bills !

We do. His name is Kelvin Benjamin. 

 

Tyrod just needs to throw to him.

I suggest Deonte Thompson over the top. But yes we do
But I bet Gilmore thinks twice about tackling Benjamin turned upfield and gathering steam ?
 and keep in mind Kelvin is playing dinged so far this year.
