CincyBillsFan Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 I have a bad feeling about this game folks. The Pats remind me of the Bills in the last years of their run when they weren't going to the Super Bowl but still making the playoffs with Kelly & company. You could see the end was nearing and they were getting old but late in the season when someone came into Rich Stadium to dance on their grave, they would rise up and crush their opponent. And for a fleeting moment you would think "yea, the magics back"! But then reality would intrude over the next couple of weeks with a playoff loss in which the team looked their age. This NE team just seems desperate and I suspect that Brady & company still have a great game or two left in them and both the Bills & Jets will see this over the next 2 weeks. But after the Patriots are beat in their first playoff game you will be seeing the end of an era. NEXT YEAR is when you'll see an improving Bills team lay the wood to the Patriots. I hope I'm wrong but I've got this sense of dread about this game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TPS Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 There was a Bills update between periods in the Sabre game, and Murf said the Pats haven't lost 3 in a row in 16 years. OH how sweet that would be... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They lost yesterday in a game i had them likley losing all week. See the steelers have heart unlike the joke of an orginization named buffalo I know I'm feeding the troll here, but the last thing this team lacks is heart. After Brady and Belichek retire and the Pats fall into mediocrity, many of you Pats fans will be looking for a new team. As a member of Bill's Mafia let me say, go elsewhere we don't want you here. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol good 1 but considering i was born in 1985 and first started watching football in 1989 and growing up in maine the patriots where the team. So no i wont be looking for a new team. Yes all good things will come to an end. But at least i got to enjoy almost 2 decades of dominance. And of course a few super bowl wins. Losing to green bay in january 97 was a tough 1. But nothing as great a feeling as beating the rams 5 years later. I couls only imagine how bad it stung when norwoods kick sailed wide right See people read to much into a road loss against a good football team. If the pats recievers could have caught a few of the drops they win the game but they didnt. Not many teams over the last 5 or 6 years have been able to hold big ben to under 20 points at home. Im guessing maybe 5 times thats occured. Likley only the bengals and ravens have and maybe tenneessee did if i can recall. The one thing the pats do is play good at home. So i expect a win and cover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes weeks 4-7 in 2002 season the patriots lost 4 straight games The dolphins tried to hand them 3 straight this year but got blown out in new england 38-3 accumulation just over 100 yards of total offense back in week 4 Maybe the bills can be the first team to beat new england in new england since carolina did and end their 13 game home winning streak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will have the opportunity to pick a good player no matter where they pick in the first round. one can trade down from a top 10 draft pick and get two good players, maybe:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gregg Williams made the brilliant decision to punt on 4th and 2 in the 2nd at their 32 I believe which of course resulted in a touchback in a game that was obviously going to be a shootout.

Thriftygamer83 Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 I say we make New England 9-7 giving them another loss for four in a row and the Jets make it five. I still say 28-0 and we blank them at home and play a shut down game capitalizing on mental mistakes and breakdowns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have weapons and castoffs who are hungry. Winning this one sets a mark not just for a declining dynasty which might go out nasty. It also sends a message that Minnesota wasn’t a fluke. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WideNine Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 On 12/16/2018 at 7:43 PM, RiotAct said: 13 points sounds about right... on the road, pretty banged up (on offense), playing a New England team with Tom Brady who is on a two-game losing skid and has a lot to play for. Not to mention we have rarely gotten a good deal from officiating when we play Kraft's team at Gillette - I think you are probably right about the spread considering how banged up we are. Even if we do have a lead, I don't know if I quite trust our defense to hold it - they shut down Stafford last week, but he was playing with a lot of hurt. As a consolation prize, I would not mind if we knock Brady to the ground every time he drops back to pass and I would not mind if someone rocks Gronk - just a bit of payback for the White hit. This game is a win/win for us. If we lose we are already out of the playoffs and we secure a better draft position, if we win we can take pride in the fact that we sent a clear message that there is a changing of the guard in the AFC East and NE, Brady, and Darth Belicheat are starting their inevitable slide into NFL history. My hope is that with solid drafting, astute free agent pickups, new coaches and front office(s), NE will mount some kind of NFL comeback in 20 years or so, OR once I am dead and gone. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To many bad calls on catching and such. My feeling is Tom Donaguhybwas the tip of the iceberg. You have Kraft literally employing folks like Richard Farrelly who was an associate of James “Whitey” Bulger Jr during his infamous time in the FBI along with John Connolly. For his part Farrelly accepted a plea out of State. I’m not surprised by Kraft clearing spreads with old Purple contacts given Goodell and Kraft’s families associations out in Detroit. Protecting each other as it were to keep things even. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take the over with the the Bills giving up +6 At least (2) roughing the Brady calls, (3) holds (2 by Dawkins, 1 by an interior linemen like our center where replays leave the booth baffled), and a minimum of (1) DPI against White and likely (1) against Wallace as he will probably draw Edelman in the slot. Throw in the usual (1) more for Dawkins being an ineligible receiver downfield on a screen play and you will probably be in the right neighborhood. Last week was an unusual reprieve... I think we could be in for a flag-fest. I believe we have Shawn Smith's officiating crew (unless the schedule has changed) and he seems to be on the high end of tossing flags around. From Pro-Football-Reference site: in 2018 Smith is averaging 15.85 penalties/game for 142.85 yards the league average is 13.51 for a 115.50 yards They were the crew that officiated our game against Chicago earlier this year where: Chicago was assessed 14 penalties for 129 yards and the Bills were assessed 10 penalties for 163 yards.
