We're on to Miami

[Pessimistic Pete]

Patriots win and they clinch their 10th straight AFC East title and 16th of the Brady/BB era.

I feel these next two road games (@ Dolphins, @ Steelers) will fully determine where we end up seeded as I'm seeing the Bills/Jets at home the final two weeks are locks, baring some truly wild stuff.

Jets already gave us their annual close game (at their house, at that) and the Bills vs Brady in Foxboro is one of the most glaring examples of brutal domination in NFL history.

The Bills scare me more than the Phins, actually. Their defense gave us all sorts of fits last game. I dont expect them to lose either. Regardless, if the Pats beat the Steelers they basically guarantee themselves a first round bye. Almost.

If it was in Buffalo I'd give them a shot, as I always will a division road game but they had their one shot of the season earlier and despite the Pats playing a pretty bad game still lost.

Miami is playing like a team looking for the playoffs....Im more worried about this game than any of the rest of them.

The Bills have legitimately beaten the Pats twice in the last 18 years. And they have never beaten TB at home. The Bills have won four games this year and have averaged less than 15 points a game this year. Pats will be playing for HF or a bye probably.

We have had issues in Miami

What? The Bills have never beaten Tom in Foxborough.

Cue the “it’s the dolphins super bowl”excuses for anything that goes wrong next Sunday

Getting in your negative *****ing in about next week already I see. Was your goal to wake up one day and be this forums biggest *****y whiner? Congrats! You actually succeeded at something.

Do you not believe there is truth to teams taking our game more seriously and putting a little more extra effort?

The wind was more of a factor. The Bills will get their a** kicked in Foxborough.

Miami is playing like a team looking for the playoffs.

Really?

Their last month

Destroyed in Houston 42-23
Squeaked a win out vs the jest at home 13-6
Lost to a GB team that just lost to a 2-9 Cardinals team
Lost to the dolts last week
and very well should have lost to the jills today, absolutely no clue how Clay doesn't come down with that

I mean the only reason they are "in the hunt" is because they opened the season 3-0 but since then are 3-6 and none of those 3 wins since were really of the "playing like a team looking to get into the playoffs", they won those games by a combined 14 points

Now that isn't me saying the Pats won't lose because we all know a loss in Miami isn't a rare thing for them but I just haven't seen a team that's playing like they want to be in the playoffs

Really?

Now that isn't me saying the Pats won't los

Yeh I agree but 1-4 in the last 5 trips to miami....

The heat was the problem in early season. Dec should be a different story.

I didn't realize our track record in Miami recently was that bad. That 2015 game was just bizarre. The Pats didn't even try for half of the game, it was one of the more brutal Pats games I've ever watched.

I think we win this one but we clearly struggle down there for some reason.

 

[nabwong]

The Miami game is the one I worry most about. Division game + playoff hopes + weather = anything can happen.

 

[Jlaff]

I wonder if the team has a favorite strip club down in Miami that keeps drugging their drinks year after year. You know, not a lot of drugs so they'd notice, but enough.

It's low to mid 70's down there all week. Weather should be a non-issue.

Extended weather forecast for Miami next Sunday.. 81 degrees, 81% humidity.. stay hydrated.
