Can we please just call them New England or the Patriots. Our inferiority complex couldn't be any more evident when we call them the "Cheatriots" or the like. If fans of the Patriots saw this board they would laugh at us more than they already do.

The Pats* cheating has nothing to do with any complex, inferiority or otherwise.

 

What has changed since the last time they played?

-both of the Bills starting corners are out.

-the Pats are playing better football.

- the Bills offense has gotten worse

I don't think 10.5 is enough

I suspect it might have been more if the Pats* needed the game for home field advantage or something. But you typically don't see many spreads much higher than that.

they can also laugh at every other fan base that does the same thing

i think it's pretty high too. The Pats really needed the Jets game and only squeaked out a 1 point victory. The Jets are a worse team than the Bills. I know it was in NJ but that hasn't stopped other teams from blowing out the Jets there.

 

Also I watched that game and there were far more Pats fans there than jets fans. Pats offense struggled and OL was awful.

Bills have a real chance if winning this one. I see the starters playing a half and then all the back ups for NE go in. It all depends on how hard the bills play, or do they phone it in.

 

As for the jets game the first game was decided by 3 points, I was not shocked by the nail biter last week. The jets ALWAYS give the pats fits.

yes they do. I honestly think it is a huge reason why Rex has hung on as long as he has.
