26CornerBlitz Posted December 21, 2017 Author Share Posted December 21, 2017 (edited) 11. TYROD TAYLOR, BUFFALO BILLS – 83.4 OVERALL GRADE 1. TOM BRADY, NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS – 95.1 OVERALL GRADE Brady took the league lead in big-time throws as he showed off impressive downfield accuracy throughout the game. He officially finished 5-for-8 for 148 yards on deep (20-plus yard) passes, and that’s not including two other pinpoint deep throws that were negated by penalties. It wasn’t all perfect as Brady forced a pass under heavy pressure that was intercepted and he missed a few other throws, but his downfield ball location was the story and it earned him Western & Southern QB of the Week honors. NFL Playoffs 2018: The formula for beating the Patriots for every AFC contender Quote The New England Patriots are once again the favorites to represent the AFC in the Super Bowl. They've done it seven times since 2001, and in order to prevent the defending champs from having an opportunity at going back-to-back for the first time since 2003 and 2004, one of the other AFC contenders is going to have to knock them off before they get there. Of course, that's easier said than done. That's why, in the space below, we're going to attempt to explore how each team that remains in the playoff race would beat the Patriots, if they were actually able to do it. Bills: Run It Down Their Throats This one's easy: it's all about Shady McCoy. Still one of the NFL's most slippery and versatile weapons out of the backfield, McCoy is capable of breaking big plays and/or repeatedly ripping off clock-killing runs for an entire afternoon. He's single-handedly won games before, and he could do it again in the right circumstance. (Side note: if it happens to be snowing for this game, don't bet against McCoy.) Buffalo's rush offense has dropped off badly this year from where it was during 2015 and 2016, but they still rank very high in open field yards and generating long runs. If the blocking coalesces correctly, it could lead to a big day for McCoy. Of course, Tyrod Taylor's mobility helps on that front, and if the defense starts collapsing on McCoy, he can take off with the ball around the end.

26CornerBlitz Posted December 21, 2017 Author Share Posted December 21, 2017 (edited) Ten people who matter most in Week 16 9. LeSean McCoy, Bills running back On the fringe of the AFC playoff picture, Buffalo's mission is dire: Sneak into Foxborough and steal a win from the division-bully Patriots. For that to happen, a big-time performance is needed from McCoy, who plowed for 93 yards at 6.0 yards per tote in a Week 13 loss to Belichick and friends. His weekly box scores can look underwhelming, but Shady on tape remains a player who runs hard and plays a major role in the passing game. Buffalo's offense is a tough watch, but it looked good in Week 15 controlling the line of scrimmage against a Dolphins team that flattened the Pats two Mondays ago. With the Bills close to extinction, McCoy is the man to stave off death for one more week. Edited December 21, 2017 by 26CornerBlitz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It remains to be seen if Benjamin will play in Sunday's AFC East duel with the New England Patriots. NFL Network's Mike Garafolo reported on Good Morning Football that Benjamin likely will need surgery this offseason to fix the issue. Garafolo characterized Benjamin's status as questionable for this week's game, which is laden with playoff implications for the Bills.

26CornerBlitz Posted December 21, 2017 Author Share Posted December 21, 2017 NFL Week 16 game picks: Saints top Falcons; Dallas stays alive Week 16 -- what used to be the close of the regular season has become the final playoff maelstrom for the wannabes. Despite being so late in the season, no less than 13 of the 16 games carry some level of postseason weight. Whether these contests feature teams like the Lions and Cowboys (who are trying to run the table and get help) or outfits like the Jags, Eagles and Patriots (still duking it out over seeding), the results matter. All of which serves to make this weekend more important than Week 17, when most of the eggs are already scrambled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
