ColdBlueNorth Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 These 3 games are our playoffs. It's our chance to measure ourselves against our division foes and an opportunity to send a message for next season. PTR Totally agree. After the dismantling of the Jets by NE and what they did to Chicago, I am really hoping we give them a bit of a show. Although if we actaully by some miracle pulled off a win it would be because the Pats have already clinched and have nothing to play for... at least that would be the spin by the usual pundits. ...perhaps I am getting ahead of myself here
BuffaloBaumer Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 I just pray that the Patriots have something to play for when they come here. I can't imagine anything worse than beating them with back-ups....
qdawg in philly Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 Any given Sunday any team can be beat! The jets and fins are very beatable! We would have our hands full with the pats! It would all start up front! Do you see how the pats oline has been playing?! That's good football! But I hope they don't clinch and they play their starters! You beat the pats by punching them in the mouth, but you gotta keep punching them! The way the pats have been beating everyone is the same way the browns beat them! We go for broke non-stop! I really billieve we can dust all three teams off!
TheBows Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 The Pats are unstoppable. No chance. Dolphins better be a win. We might pull one out with the Jets. My money is on 1 - 2 for the last three weeks.
The Big Cat Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 If we finish 5-11 or 6-10 and end up drafting in the 6-10 range, I think Sherrod's the pick. Sorry, somebody had to make this thread about the draft!
Erik Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 I just pray that the Patriots have something to play for when they come here. I can't imagine anything worse than beating them with back-ups.... Assuming the Steelers take care of the fading Jets at home next week, NE will still need that game to take the #1 seed.
The Big Cat Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 Assuming the Steelers take care of the fading Jets at home next week, NE will still need that game to take the #1 seed. There's blood in the water. And Arthur Moats has a taste for Brady.
Thoner7 Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 I am really only concerned with the Pats at this point. Miami is meh, the Jets are playing like poop as of late, and NE is the best in the league. Playing a close game, win or lose, is not very promising if its played vrs Miami (a .500 team who is going to finish like a DJ bills team), Vrs the Pats is another story. Even with another win I cant see us drafting later than 5 which would be nice. I haven’t looked at it if we win a 5th game, but with 2 teams at 5 wins right now I would think 7 is as late as we could fall. Lets beat the Pats and finish 4-12
tombstone56 Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 IM SEEING 2-1 WITH THE PATS BEING CLOSER THAN YOU THINK
The Senator Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 If we finish 5-11 or 6-10 and end up drafting in the 6-10 range, I think Sherrod's the pick. Sorry, somebody had to make this thread about the draft! Sherrod's small, but he's slow. I'll stick with the big kid (also slightly faster) from Wisconsin - Gabe Carimi - who handled Big 10 DE's Ryan Kerrigan, Carmeron Heyward, Adrian Clayborn, etc., with ease.

I think the elite DL's will be gobbled up, and if we can't get the #1 OLB, it should be the best tackle available. I always forget about Gabe. Stud with a capital "S."
dbringer Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 If Pats win and Steelers lose next week Pats will have home field advantage locked up by the time we roll in to Foxboro. If we roll in to Foxboro, I predict the Pats won't even show up (they'll be in Buffalo)...

My money is on 1 - 2 for the last three weeks. The Pats are not unstoppable. Rodney Harrison said that the way you beat the Pats is to play them straight up in man to man coverage. Brady and his recievers are so unbelievably locked into timed passes between the gaps of the zone, any zone. They must beg the Patriots to run the ball using 6 DBs as their base defense. They must blitz by sending some of these DBs to try to get to Brady from time to time. The Bills can do it. I think the Bills beat Miami and NY because they're flat out better than them. Why? Two words, Ryan Fitzpatrick. Edited December 13, 2010 by 1billsfan

Two words, Ryan Fitzpatrick. Funny thing is... that's been the book on how to beat the Pats* for years. Yet, very few teams do it. Why? I'm seriously asking. Does the league office mandate that you can't blitz Brady and play bump and run, man coverage on their WRs? It boggles my mind how many teams I see playing a soft zone with 3-4 pass rushers while Brady just steadily picks them apart.
qdawg in philly Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 34 or 43 doesn't matter! You have to pressure him non- stop! How? Fresh legs form your rotation! Just look at the super bowl of the pats and the giants! Straham said, "we wanted to disrupt them because they are a rythmic offense! So we wanted to shake him(Brady) up a little and punch him in the mouth!" And that's exactly what they did! We have to be aggressive and take chances! If we go 1-2 and we beat the pats, ill be satisfied! I know we are better than the fins and jets even if we do loose to them! But playing the pats is our superbowl! If we show up and execute, lay it all on the line, I really billieve we can beat them! Honestly, I hope we smash them!! I mean like really smash them!
12Kachy Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 Are the Jets going to pull a cheap shot so they don't get embarassed??
3rdand12 Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 PTR absolutely spot on. But i think some of you are still high from this past weekend of Bills goodness. heck i know i am a little. Just the same, i hope we give our division foes hell on the field and concern for our run at a title next year!
sir andrew Posted December 14, 2010 Posted December 14, 2010 I would blitz every down. Screw the screens. Even if brady doesn't get sacked, the constant hits would take a toll. If you do not hit brady, you will never, ever win against them.
3rdand12 Posted December 14, 2010 Posted December 14, 2010 How about every other? They have a history of very good adjustments you know.
