I actually think we’re talented enough to beat this Patriots team. They aren’t very talented this year, they just play consistently smart football. If we can stay lose and keep our heads, we have a chance at least.

 

Also, the argument about the Patriots not losing three in a row in December makes sense, but the flip side is that they’re still human, and they still feel that pressure.

  Not losing 3 in a row was a function of who they were.  Go 14-2 or 13-3 consistently you are seldom going to have back to back losses period.  The day could very well be here where all that changes including 2 and 3 game losing streaks.

I want to see those fancy NE fans with their $100 designer gloves and dumb little tassle winter hats grabbing their heads in disbelief as the Bills stick the DAGGER into any hopes they have of a first round bye!

 

I also want close ups of Brady standing on the sidelines looking miserable as the Bills kneel out the clock at the end of the game to a chorus of boos.

 

Bonus points for a huge sideline blowup between Brady and McDaniels after Brady throws his 2nd pick trying to avoid getting sacked by Kyle

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Patriots are like a wounded cobra. Still very dangerous, but not the same team. their confidence has to be a little rattled, so let's rattle it some more!

 

Brady is trying everything to avoid getting hit, and he is one of the worst QBs against the blitz this year. He is in self preservation mode. He is not a top QB in terms of stats this season, and he is making some bad decisions when he gets pressured that he didn't used to make. He has never liked getting hit and he doesn't like it any better at age 41.

 

Gronk can barely move, and looks like a 50 year old retired RT coming back to play TE. The guy is toast. Sure, he can make the occasional play but so can any halfway decent TE. He is not a game changing weapon anymore, and that back is not going to heal up while playing all 17 games and hopefully the wildcard round.  

 

Edelman is breaking down from catching all those short passes and then getting walloped. It's what has made their offense work: take the snap, throw in 1-2 seconds to a wide open Edelman, and have him run for 5-7 yards before he gets destroyed by the DB/LB. Edelman has taken so many vicious shots for so long that it's starting to catch up with him. Same thing they did with Welker. By the time NE was done with him he was a mess physically. Sure, he had a good season or two with Denver, but he was pretty much washed up when they got rid of him.

 

Hogan is just a guy. The rest of their WR crew is mediocre at best.

 

The best way to beat NE is to run the ball and make sure to score TDs in the red zone. It sounds crazy, but if you make them 1 dimensional and put pressure on their offense to keep up that's when the problems arise. If you let NE run the ball and keep giving them chances in a close game they will beat you typically.

 

No matter what happens, there will be no week 17 preseason walkthrough for them. They are going to need to play all 17 weeks. If Houston wins Saturday they are going to be staring at 2 extra games that their starters usually rest for.

 

 

Easy win over you losers.

He’s a butt hurt Pats fan. He’s attempting to make himself feel better by putting down others, It’s sad.

Would love to see Allen go toe to toe with Brady is a shoot out. Be good to see him just take that next steps to finish this season. A changing of the guard type of game

Quick Hits: Marcus Murphy Dealing with Dislocated Elbow

 

biz09s9msirn5pj6ez1k.jpg

 

The Bills running back contingent was thin this past Sunday due to injuries suffered by LeSean McCoy and Chris Ivory the previous week. The depth chart appeared to get thinner when Marcus Murphy left Sunday’s game with an arm injury and did not return, leaving rookie Keith Ford as the only available tailback.
 
“We’ve got a general update in that most guys are being evaluated. We’ll know more on Tuesday, but Marcus Murphy has a dislocated elbow,” said head coach Sean McDermott.
 
Not all injuries are the same, but former Bills CB Phillip Gaines suffered a dislocated elbow earlier this season and missed two games before returning to the lineup.
 
When asked whether Murphy could play through it, McDermott wasn’t sure at this point in the week.
 
“We’re still determining that right now,” he said.
 
Meanwhile the bodies of Ivory and McCoy obviously benefited by not playing on Sunday against the Lions. Both players participated in practice at the end of last week, so the anticipation is they will be able to practice on Wednesday.
 
Josh Allen’s completion percentage not the focus
Ford and Thompson fare well in debuts
