Just a couple of hours away from kickoff, so we'll get this opened up:

Need tonight's game. Bills won earlier as did Kansas City, so the Patriots could use one in the win column to keep pace with both teams. Especially after Cincy dropped to 0-2 this afternoon against the Ravens, who are now 2-0.

We got this.

Going to catch this in a Minneapolis bar...don't let me down...

Sure glad they are wearing better uniforms tonight. It’s way more enjoyable when they aren’t wearing the blueberry pajamas.

 

[BelizePats]

How about a fast start for a change? Wouldn't that be nice!

Wade is terrible, he will be abused in this game.

 

[TheRainMaker]

This guy seems like an urban legend.

 

[TheBeers]

Wade might be okay covering big/slow WR's but unfortunately Miami doesn't have any of those.

Assuming Cleveland wins tomorrow, there'd only be one team in the AFC that is 2-0 that isn't winning their division. If Pittsburgh wins then there'd be none. So the Pats would be very much in a good spot in the conference at 1-1 overall, 1-0 in conference and in division. But this also shows that 0-2 would not be an insurmountable hole, either. There would only be two or three 2-0 teams in the conference after this weekend.

Sort of crazy how things have unfolded, and I was just saying this is a terrific opportunity, given how it's playing out. They'd suddenly be right in the mix ahead of a game with the Jets next weekend before they head out to Dallas, who is obviously having their way with them. 0-2 wouldn't be ideal, although they'd have a good shot at getting one back before they play the Cowboys. But if they win tonight, they'd have a chance at 2-2 or even 3-1 after four weeks, which would be surprising.
