(B) In the rematch, the Bills only managed to become the first team in NFL history to go from up 21 after one quarter to losing by more than 8 points—and they lost by 28!

Meh, it's the same thing we hear all the time. Control the clock to keep Brady off the field, and when he IS on the field, pressure him without blitzing. Simple right?

Except the only team that has shown able to do that consistently is the Giants (ugh). All the other teams that have had good days against Brady, typically don't do so well the next time out (Jets, Bills, Steelers though they alternate, etc).

The "Blueprint" is the same for any good QB, it's having the personnel to execute it, THEN actually following through with that execution. Williams and Anderson are great additions, but as the Eagles showed last year, it takes more than just good additions for a team to make the next step.

Everything he says is fine right up until the end. I would literally bet my entire net worth that the Bills don't sweep the Pats this year if Brady plays both games. They seem to think that they have become the Giants simply because of the emphasis on the front 4 but the Giants still have two things they don't; an excellent QB and an excellent HC. No personnel alone is going to beat Bellichick and the Pats twice in one season without having football minds that know how to play the leveling game with him, and no defense alone without a damn good QB is beating Brady either. Even though all the Giants games have come down to the wire already, the Pats are way more capable of dealing with front 4 pressure than they were last year imo.

Mark Anderson and Mario Williams were on the Texans defense a couple of years ago and they had the 32nd pass defense in the league.

I think Bills fans are getting a little too ****y of their offseason acquisitions. They lost eight of their last nine games.

Meaning, the Colts had the same final 9 weeks of the season as these guys.

Anything can happen any week...If the Bills play better in both games they will win both games..if they don't,they won't,....Mr.Obvious

I think the teams each win one game....I see the pats going 4-2 in the division

Maybe, the Buffalo Bills and their beat writers ought to try to figure out how they get through the 2012 regular season without getting swept by the Miami Dolphins and the New York Jets like they did in 2011 before they worry too much about winning the division.

Didn't they lose 16 of their last 17 against us?

Suddenly it's easy to beat the Pats, huh?

His analysis of the Pats D and off season is off base IMO, but it's the week TC opens so why shouldn't he be optimistic.

Who cares? Predictions are like arses. Everyone has one and most really stink.
