Pats @ Bills preview

[Uncle Rico]

Is this the best tweet you'v ever seen? I laughed so hard at it. Where's @Uncle Rico?

Hah - -yes, I saw that. I should demand royalties. Or sue for damages; dude is nowhere near as handsome as I am. AND he can only throw it halfway up the mountain. One eighth of a mile at best. Pfft. Hope Chandler breaks Orton's coccyx Sunday.

I figure if we want to win the AFC East and the super bowl, we have to be able to win games like this. So I expect a win.

Stat of the day: When the Pats need 1 yard and Brady runs/sneaks, he has converted 84 of 100 times in his career.

Would be even more impressive if they would take out tries that failed due to a bad snap ect.

Brady definitely knows when to use the sneak

I really wish he had got that one on the first drive for the TD

Best QB out there when doing it.


Wonder if Revis will be locked onto watkins like he did green..or more of a zone/man game. None of those WRs scare me. Sammy still young

“I don’t think it’s going to be good,” Bruschi said of the Patriots’ reconfigured offensive line against the Bills. “I may be more concerned this week, with that Buffalo front, than I was last week with the Cincinnati Bengals, just because of who they are and how they’re playing.”

Ya the Bills front is playing good and they are at home. This game will be much close then cincy that's for sure.

OL will be key. They pull a MIA or Oak and it's game over

 

[Brady_to_Moss]

Look just dont get behind. Pats can play from the front. But their Defense is not that good. Actually it is Bad.

Revis has been having issues with Speed. They cannot stop the run.

New England's line gets away with holding every game, almost every snap. It's nuts.

Hopefully the refs call a fair game, cause if they don't, forget 'bout it.

How is a top 4-5 D in the NFL right now not that good and is somehow bad? Were are Revis's issue with speed? mans some of them have a rough go of it...

No-one circles the wagons like Bills fans.

It is their Super Bowl on Sunday. They have to come up with every reason, even imagined, to believe.

Slow down the Bills run game and the Patriots win this game. I'm not particularly concerned about the Bills passing attack.

• Revis in man coverage on Watkins takes away their biggest vertical threat.
• The Pats need to clamp down on Scott Chandler. He tends to play well against the Pats.
• Vince Wilfork is going to be critical to contain Spiller and Jackson. If the Patriots slow the Bills rushing attack (like the Chargers did) they win.
• Connolly, Stork, Wendell must win against Dareus and Williams.
• Expecting an expanded role for Dobson this week. I'd run him on crossing routes and slants until he shows he's capable of returning to vertical routes. He could be a passing game key.
• As per usual, Gronk and Edelman will be critically important. I am hopeful Wright's role is expanded.
• Run the rock. I don't care if the Bills can stop the run, you keep running the football and establish the tone of the game. This opens up play-action.
• The use of Ridley/Vereen needs to be balanced. I thought McDaniels did a good job of this against the Bengals.

Looking at the Bills, they're going to have to win this with their defense, the rushing attack and most likely Mike Williams, Robert Woods and Scott Chandler. If the Patriots O carries their Bengals form into this game and the Patriots are able to slow down the rushing attack of the Bills, they should win. If the Bills D controls the flow of the game and maintains a low scoring grind, then it's the Bills game to lose.

What else is there to do in Buffalo but argue over an obvious spoof?

 

[Big-T]

Go out from the get go with:
Edelman
Dobson
Gronkowski
Wright
Ridley

If Spikes is on the field GO NO HUDDLE and run double seam routes with the TEs and have Ridley run a wheel route, yeah he isn't Vereen when it comes to receiving but it clears out another player for Edelman running routes underneath and Dobson in the intermediate.

Trap Spikes on the field and tire out the DL is a big key this week.

 

[sb1]

Glad Aaron Schobel retired. That guy had Tom Brady's number for some reason...

 

[patriot1136]

I really want to see Dobson light it up on Sunday. I believe he can too

 

[Bobs My Uncle]

Word here is that DT K Williams is at practice and doing drills. Also, LB Nigel Bradham, is taking reps as well.

Williams is a tough SOB so I would expect he'll dress and Bradham is probably the only LB they have who has a chance to cover Gronk.

How effective either are come Sunday is anyone's guess I suppose.

Sammy Watkins says he "found out" that Darrelle Revis will shadow him Sunday.

Brandon Spikes says he refers to Tom Brady as “Pharaoh,” because “he’s amazing."

https://twitter.com/mikerodak/status/519933556731432960

Spikes asked about Belichick saying he is same player but with longer hair. "What a pleasant surprise," he says. "You know how it ended."
