Who are the Bills 3rd and 4th CB? Line up with 3 & 4 WR's, spread them out and (hopefully) Taylor Price has a big game

Sorry my friend but Price was downgraded to OUT last night.

Maybe it's being done to mess with the Bills? The Pats have had great success with Gronk and Hernandez on the field so now they might be wondering, (like us) "what are they going to do with only 1 TE?"

This offseason, it's almost like Belichick is saying, "I'm never going to let that happen again."

Oh that sucks

So who is left for this game? Welker, Ochocinco, Edelman, Gronk & Branch?

EDIT
Oh wait there's Slater too

Slater is not trivial. If nothing else, he can drag a CB with him and turn the rest of the offense into 10-on-10. Also, I presume he's one of our best-blocking WRs, which matters in a game where we're light on TEs.

It feels like we're taking a big risk here on a divisional game.

But BB knows more than we.

Go Pats!

Today is really troubling.....

Only one TE, no back-up tackle, already playing with a back-up Center, no Hanyesworth, Hernandez, Chung, Vollmer, ouch that's missing 6% of your starters!

Serioulsy the aPats play alot of 2 TEs, I thought SOlder played well as the third TE, but he is going to have to play RT. I'm guesssing that we might see alot of Dane Fletcher at TE.

Chung is a big giant missing part, the Pats better find some sort of pass rush today ot they could be in serious trouble.

On the other hand, if they win today they will be 2-0 in the division with only one division road game left for the whole year!

Pretty sure that this was gameplanned for early on, and he is compensating somehow..

My biggest concern is the lack of O line depth..

Do not think he is trying to "mess" with anyone, just trying to field a mentally tough team who can win this game..
