Patriots – Bills Keys, Who Has the Razor’s Edge?
HOME > Patriots Blog > Patriots Commentary
Prediction:
This game is going to be another tough divisional game between two teams that know each other well. Getting off to a quick start is again a big factor for the Patriots. New England has outscored opponents 34-0 in the first quarter this season. If they can once again get off to a fast start it will go a long way in getting a victory.
While I think that the game would be closer if Brissett were the QB rather than Garoppolo for NE, I think they’ll win regardless. They’re deeper and a better team overall than Buffalo.
The Bills have to get their ground game going with McCoy and Taylor on Sunday. The Patriots have been good at stopping the run thus far year and especially if Hightower is back, they’ll have a good chance of doing that again.
The Patriots will want to do the same thing with Blount and essentially this game will be won or lost in the trenches. With better weapons in the passing game at the skill positions, this is where NE can separate themselves this week. Danny Amendola has had some big games against the Bills recently, and I look for him and Hogan to have a big game here. The Pats hold serve and improve to 4-0 in Brady’s absence.
Patriots 24-20
