I fully realize I'm whining over probably nothing here, but I don't think us winning is a " bold " prediction.....NE is favorite of course, but in my world, bold would be Miami beating Baltimore or San Fran.....

Prepare thine holes for a day filled with zero blitzes. 

Not sure that is going to be the case this time around. Brady* is great at getting the ball out fast, but this is not the same team we played earlier in the season, and Brady* is not the player he was. His accuracy has suffered, and his receivers are faltering. Rush Brady* in the pocket, and we might gets some picks today. I hope.

Listened to WEEI in Boston Podcasts specifically their football show. They split 3 ways. One picks Bills 20-13, one picks Pat 20-17, one says wants to pick Bills but got to cliff edge and can’t trust Josh Allen yet.

 

They said game keys are:

1) Teams that go 3 wide run better against Pats consistently

2) They think Bills will enact some form of Ravens getting Josh to the edge and emphasizing outside run, Josh on the move, options, etc.

3) The Pats have been terrible against the Blitz on 3rd down. They expect us to bring the heat there. They feel Harry needs to make some plays outside for them to beat the Blitz.

4) They feel if Josh keeps turnovers to 2 or less that we have a real shot at winning this game.

5) Field position is key. They think the first game had more to do with the Pats always having great field position vs them outplaying is. 

In general they think we are better D vs their O and Pats are better in the other 2 phases. We need to be even or better in one of those other phases, specifically special teams to win. 

Fair assessment all around from a network that is 50 times more homer than WGR. 

 

The analytical side of me says this is solid analysis from well informed football fans.

 

The homer side of me says they're afraid, finally.

Down in RI, in heavy Pats territory, so you KNOW I’m wearing Bills gear to the oyster bar (RI’s version of wings, I suppose)... ???

I’m doing beef on weck sliders, & trying out wings in the new air fryer ... I have to make the kimoweck buns myself because they don’t sell them here

They are afraid and it is telling. Even on good morning football as they talked about the Bills and Pats....the final add on was “at least it’s at Foxboro”. Hardly confident for the Pats. 

 

This is the year we need to take that doubt and make it real. Make Brady want to walk away.Beat him today and then let them lose their first wild card round game.
