Patriots - Bills, Who Has the Razor's Edge? Key MNF Matchups

This is what worries me. Part of Brady's ability to stay clean despite a patchwork O line has been his ability to get rid of the ball so fast. A big part of that through the first half of the season was Lewis and Edelman. If the Bills double Amendola and Gronk, who is going to step up? I hope LaFell can get open quickly and that Martin gets back to what he was when he first joined the team. I am not too keen on our run game. Blount to me only gets going when the opposition gets tired. White has shown nothing so far. We didn't even try to run on Buffalo the first time out this season, I think because their run D is better than their secondary, and the theory was Brady could get rid of the ball fast and take advantage of that. Now that this is not so true, what is the game plan? It will be interesting to see.
Oy did this come to fruition. Kudos to Brady for standing in and taking a pounding in a very tough game.
 
A few things I am interested in.

#1 The Bills scored 32 points on the Pats. The most they allowed all season. Bring up garbage time all you want but that is not good. I want to see the Patriots D redeem themselves with a strong showing tonight.

#2 The Bills rushed for 160 yards against the Pats last game (43 by Tyrod). The Patriots have been doing much better against the run recently so this be an area I want to see the Patriots improve on.

#3 8 sacks last game for the Pats. Though they will not get 8 again will we see the same effort?

#4 Darby vs Gronk - I do not believe Darby can stop Gronk but he has done as well against him as anyone and I am curious how much the Bills will go to the well and risk 1v1s
The D did well on the points allowed, not so great against the rush, not so great on the sack effort and Gronk was invisible except for one great catch near the end of the game. A split.
