boyst Posted September 4, 2013 Posted September 4, 2013 Turnovers? Sacks? Passing Yards? Rushing Yards? Other? I have to believe it is going to be INT's. The only times we have beat Brady are when we can force him to throw INT"s. No, you cannot say Touchdowns.
BringBackFergy Posted September 4, 2013 Posted September 4, 2013 Sudfeld is turning out to be a suitable replacement for the Bubble Gum Bandit (Hernandez). That being said, our ability to cover TE's with Alonso or Bradham. Last year we were horrible (Barnett had some tired legs)...this year, I'm hoping Pettine changes it up with either MLB or Safeties covering the TE's. So, I would say our MLB pass coverage is the key. Brady will be looking for quick dump off passes or slants to TE's. If we stop that (to some degree), we win.
thebandit27 Posted September 4, 2013 Posted September 4, 2013 I'm going to go off-the-grid and say QB hits
Dorkington Posted September 4, 2013 Posted September 4, 2013 We'll need them to have about 3-7 turnovers, and us to have zero.
biglukes Posted September 4, 2013 Posted September 4, 2013 Brady temper tantrums. The more fits he pitches, the better the chances we win. If he's flipping out and crying, that means he's getting beat.
billsfanmiami(oh) Posted September 4, 2013 Posted September 4, 2013 Between +2 and +4 on turnover battle and we have a chance

YoloinOhio Posted September 4, 2013 Posted September 4, 2013 I think that first and foremost, "stop" the NE run so 150 rushing yards or less. Then, INTs. It is more about the defense on Sunday than the offense. We will not win a scoring match with Brady.
Spiderweb Posted September 4, 2013 Posted September 4, 2013 (edited) For the Bills to win multiple, phases of the game will need to favor them. In addition to those above, they must eliminate penalties. We were a penalty machine this preseason and that has to stop.. Edited September 4, 2013 by Spiderweb
FireChan Posted September 4, 2013 Posted September 4, 2013 For the Bills to win multiple, phases of the game will need to favor them. In addition to those above, they must eliminate penalties. We were a penalty machine these last 3 years and that has to stop.. I fixed that bolded setence for ya.
Chandler#81 Posted September 4, 2013 Posted September 4, 2013 With the HOF career Brady is enjoying -albeit at our expense-, winning the turnover battle is just about the ONLY way they lose in the regular season. You just can't outscore them.
Max997 Posted September 4, 2013 Posted September 4, 2013 contrary to what Jauron and Gailey thought its def not field goals

We were a penalty machine this preseason and that has to stop.. Meh - I hear you on penalties that kill drives but I wouldn't mind a defensive penalty here or there if it results in scaring Brady that are indeed not afraid to put him on the ground.
richNjoisy Posted September 4, 2013 Posted September 4, 2013 Sacks. If Bills have 5 sacks or more, we will win. 3-4 sacks will mean a close game. < 3 sacks = big loss. The obvious reason I say this is that sacks = pressure. Brady has to be pressured else he will eat you alive.
Pneumonic Posted September 4, 2013 Posted September 4, 2013 It's all on the defense this game. They need to be able to stop the Pats rushing attack without committing extra defender in the box which will allow them to drop an extra defender back in coverage to help create the requisite turnovers required to pull off the upset.
