I don't think anyone thinks the Pats are better than the bills, it's just how bad the bills defense has been at times.

I’m excited to see Ciarlo a bit. 

He's a ST demon and I'm sure he was brought up specifically for kickoff coverage on Jones who has been killing it on returns.

Anyone else have Pats PTSD combined with Vrabel BS + Diggs BS right now. Tell me I’m not alone

Good luck with that. They'll nurse a 10 point lead until it's threatened and JA17 has to throw on the cape.

Yeah.  It's an unfortunate residual from the 1st part of this millennium.

 

I feel about the Pats the same way Red Sox fans feel about the Yankees.  Really, until this past week, the Red Sox owned the Yankees for 20 years - but they're still completely obsessed w/ NY.

It’s time for the defense to answer the bell against a physical team. You need to get off the field on 3rd down and you need to stop the run. The offense has done their part for 7 straight years. Tonight the defense needs to make stops

If they don’t, expect more practice injuries next week!

31-30 BILLS

 

It’s gonna be a tough one.

I think it's that we've seen stretches of play in the last two weeks where we see the Bills have a stretch where they inexplicably stall and start to let a clearly inferior team back into the game and while I don't think the Pats are world beaters or even close to as good as the Bills right now Vrabel is coaching them up and could take better advantage of stallouts

 

I'm hoping for a dose of Primetime Josh

Offensively, the Patriots look healthier. Guards Mike Onwenu and Jared Wilson, and tackle Will Campbell, were all full go by the end of the week. Their health is important as New England gets set to contend with Buffalo’s vicious front featuring Leonard Floyd and Gregory Rousseau.

Did you know that Leonard Floyd had re-joined the Bills?  I didn't either.  LOL, I guess this counts for sport journalism now.

I would love a statement game from the Defense. I'll take any Dub we can get though

 

GO BILLS

[Lionel Hutz]

This is a huge game for the Bills. Really need to kill any hope the Patriots have.

I was sad to see him go.

Bills bring their A game against the hated Pats.  42-14.

3. Bills D getting off the field on 3rd down.

4. Win the TO battle

5. D being ready at the snap

6. Better tackling and stopping the run

7. Offense continues to hum scoring 30+
8. No injuries 

9. BillsMafia rocking the “White Out”

10. Incorporate some uptempo in the O

I do.  Which means we either blow them out or its a nail biter to the end.

Eagles were -4.

Bills are -8.5

 

I am happy to see this

couldn’t agree more.  If they could achieve this against New England, that would go a long way towards their confidence the rest of the season!!!

Who stepped on Ed’s ankle in practice? An elephant? For crying out loud.
