My pregame thought is the Patriots are going to win

Right on PatsFan24! Thats what I want to hear. I'm getting tired of hearing so many Pats Fans doubting. Yes, we lost last week. That means very little for this team this week. Bottom line, the Raiders will not be able to keep up with our offense. Anything from our D is a bonus.

I'm going to the game, and will be sitting in the front row. I kind of feel like I'm going into the belly of the beast. When its all said and done, the Pats will win, and a lot of these negative posts we're seeing will be long forgotten.

I wish I shared everyone's positive outlook, but what I see is an offense that, without Hernandez last week became overly reliant on Welker and Gronkowski and this resulted in some awful throws from our quarterback. Like the coach said in his show on nfl network, "if you take away moss deep and welker underneath, we're dead. we can't run the ball. we can't do anything." in this case, replace moss with gronkowsi's intermediate and seam routes.
Look, I certainly hope they win tomorrow and I hope it'[s a f#cking blowout and everyone's feeling good about the team again. but they have a sh#tload of injuries, a piss poor defense, and a one dimensional offense....not necessarily the ingredients for a win after a cross country trip...unless #85 finally gets it tomorrow and catches 7 for 110 and a td, i think it's gonna be a frustrating day of oakland converting countless 3rd and shorts and the pats offense sputtering....

I concur. Pats win with Brady having an amazing day. D getting a few solid stops by creating turnovers. Holding mcfadden to 100 yrds rushing

They will go into hiding tomorrow as they do when the pats win

I wonder if Guyton will play much, or if it will be mainly Spikes considering the configuration of the Raiders' offense.

My thought are the exact opposite Raiders win.
