I thought we had the main game for CBS this week?  506 just had it showing regionally

It Is The main game... just ask anyone here. 

 

A 1pm start isn't going to give anyone a national game, it really should have been flexed.

Well CBS has Romo & Nantz on the GB at Den game.  And there’s other games such as Bal/Cin that markets like the one I’m in (Pittsburgh) that have more interest in than the Bills game.

Reminds me also when the Steelers started out 11-0 five years back, only to fall apart down the stretch.

I think they are better than that Steelers team, but yes very similar

Andre jones and Dane Jackson called up.   Not great for hopes on benford or bosa.

Dane Jackson and Andre Jones elevated from p/s.

 

Likely means Benford is trending to be out.  Bosa likely on a pitch count.  And good chance Bernard is back.

The Patriots haven't been great running the ball, but have been great moving the ball. The Bills are not going to slow them down. A snow game had me worried but that looks like it'll be over hours before kickoff. NE will score in the 30's.

 

On D they'll focus on Cook and Kincaid, and force Allen to find his WR's. They held Cook to 49 yards the last time and feel they can do it again. Force a few punts and this game will be theirs.

They held Cook to that few yards in part because Brady inexplicably took him out in crunch time. Unilateral disarmament.

Honestly I think Brady had that game right not running cook too much…the ne linebackers are just run stuffers and they’re vulnerable to TEs in the passing game/josh scrambles.  Really isn’t a good matchup for NE imo but if the bills go -2 in turnover differential again they can certainly lose. If they don’t the bills win this one pretty comfortably 

that pats fan poster was like ‘oh we will simply stop the running game and Kincaid’ but what makes them good at slowing down the run hurts them at stopping the bills tight ends.  Really don’t think they’ll be able to do both especially with the injuries and they really didn’t even stop both last time…Kincaid was over 100 yards receiving and Josh ripped off some big runs

Easy peasy. NE will get 30 and force the Bills to punt here and there and it's game over. Probably don't even need to tune in since it's already been decided.

These patriots fans on here are insufferable. Go post on your own boards, I dont need to come to the Bills game week thread to see your silly predictions and trash talk.

It's really obnoxious. Will never understand opposing fans posting on other forums

Agree.  It's one thing to lurk and see what other fans are saying about your team but it just seems rude to actually post on another fan thread.
