I bet that the Bills could start their backup QB and still win this game handily.

They can win with Allen throwing to practice squad WRs

WOW , when even Mike Reiss is taking shots at how poor the Pats are, you KNOW you have a problem.

For twenty years, I went into every game assuming we'd win. This year, I go into every game assuming we'll lose. It's been hard to set aside either assumption, and neither conduces much to objectivity. Makes yer head spin.

So I assume they'll lose this week, but then the ghost of twenty years of giddy optimism starts yammering away and I begin to cast about for some rational basis - or handy delusion - which can get me back to my long-accustomed optimism. I thought they had a chance against Dallas, I assumed it was just some screw up on the part of God's bean counters that they didn't win at least one of their first two games. I sort of assumed they'd beat New Orleans, I thought the Jets win actually meant something. It hasn't gone well. I have been ill-served by optimism.

"Maybe," a ghostly voice says, "it'll be close."

Hamlet took counsel from ghosts: how'd that work out? (For those who managed to give the Bard the slip in high school: it was a bloodbath.)

I'm afraid this one is going to make the tanksters giddy.

The sideline:

To start, or not to start, that is the question:
Whether tis nobler to play the high priced free agent
And suffer the slings and arrows of a downtrodden fanbase
Or to take a shot at the younger talent
And by starting them end the debate
To run, to go deep
And by go deep we mean Thornton not Parker
The heartache of what should have been
Bolstered by a thousand what could have beens
A top draft pick is our only consolation

Why does Hunter Henry remind me of Lurch from the Addams Family?

The Patriots have activated CB Jack Jones from IR and ST Cody Davis off the PUP list. Veteran OL Riley Reiff has been placed on IR.

CODY DAVIS...BOOM!!!!!!!

Basically if the Bills score 20 points or more they have won this game. Over the past two seasons, the Patriots are 1-13 when the other team scores 20 points or more in our games.
