Its early in the season against an opponent at home with a new coach that will have them fired up for their superbowl. This is a fast physical defense going up against a bunch of rookies on the O-line. This feels to me like it will be a little bit like the 2009 baltimore playoff game though not as huge a hole to dig out of 13-3 at the end of the first and though Brady Gronk and Eldeman eventually get on track and make it competitive a late turn over, crucial sack, or failed conversation doom the comeback.

31-3 Pats win.

Prediction: Matt Cassel finishes the game. The bubble of Bill's fans enthusiasm, which they wholly deserve and I still wish for them, dies.

For funzies, my alternate prediction is the 2013 scenario where the Bill's have the game won in the final minutes and a series of clown plays/meltdown/miracles happen to give the Pat's a W. Botched field goal, then a kick return for TD (Pats), muffed punt, etc.

Pats: 37
Bills: 20

Pats - 27
Jills - 20

The bills are a solid team and are my sleeper to make the playoffs. They have a great defense and are riding high from their past win.
