Dr.Sack Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 I’m surprised Vegas has this game so close. Belichick, at home, Brady 2.0, and the NFLs best defense, along with a superior O-line. Weak spread. It’s almost like the odds makers are doubting their eyes. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimism. Sarcasm. Irony. That's why it's surprising.  I guess I should just be so literal and dull that anyone who's negative on the boards can revel in their echo chamber Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patience Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 The NFL will do everything it can to assure the Patriots win.  1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Success Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 I mean, I'm not sure if anyone has been paying much attention to the coverage - but the Pats are the consensus pick.  The Bills are such an afterthought now. The narrative is 100% 'last year was their shot,' and the mighty Belichick has completed a rebuild in record time and will win division titles and SB's as far as the eye can see.  In short, we're right back to where I'm most comfortable. Everyone writing us off, 6 losses already, going into a game against a team that owned us for 2 decades, at their place.  Where else would you rather be?  I'd rather shock the world than attend a coronation.  3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChronicAndKnuckles Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 If they can stop the run then the Bills win. Plain & simple. I don't see Mac Jones beating this secondary. They know the season is on the line.  Buffalo needs to open up the offense and let Allen do what he does best. Sprinkle in some decent runs/screens with Singletary and you've got a recipe for success. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We must be using "expert" very loosely. I looked through all of the picks and a majority are from random people at fan sites like TBD (for example, "Dawgs", "Pride of Detroit", "Canal Street Chronicles" and "Acme Packing Company"). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
without a drought Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 I heard it was going to be partly cloudy, not sure if the Bills offense is built for those types of conditions. 1 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlgarsh Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 As long as the Bills keep passing the ball and trusting Josh, they'll win. If they try and repeatedly force the run, it'll end up like the last game vs. NE. I think they'll trust Josh this time. Singletary can be effective too, but don't get too conservative based on weather. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know, cmon you know. Right? You can’t actually be asking that question for real?  The wind is the only reason they won. There will be no wind, do the math. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
