Opinion: Falcons at Bills: Sal’s keys, notes, and stats
‘Patterson is one of the best dual threats in the game, totaling 579 yards rushing and 523 yards receiving so far in 2021. His former teammate, Bills’ receiver Stefon Diggs, said he’s one of the best players he’s ever seen with the ball in his hands. He can do everything. The Bills can’t just focus in on him as a runner when he’s lined up in the backfield and always be aware of his ability to catch the ball, regardless of down and distance.’

‘This game marked the return of the dominant Bills offense from 2020. They moved the ball against New England’s defense all day. The Bills had eight drives, not including the kneel down at the end of the game, and they entered the red zone on seven of those eight drives.

Opinion: Bills at Patriots: Sal’s keys, notes and stats
‘We all know the Patriots won the last meeting by throwing only three passes. If Bill Belichick can do that again and have the same result I’m sure he’d do it. But the way the Bills can take that plan off the table is by not only stopping the run consistently but not giving up big runs. Things were made easier for New England last time by having too many 4-5 yard runs and creating third down and short situations. They had nine runs of at least ten yards, and busted off a 64-yarder for their only touchdown, but one that played a big role in the outcome of the game.’
