K D Posted October 5, 2016 Posted October 5, 2016 We want to be underdogs. Nobody picked us the last 2 weeks. Don't want to get complacent or think we have won anything. It's only week 5. The next few weeks are your classic trap game scenarios. Easy to look ahead to next Pats game as the big one. Hope the players stay hungry and the return of Dareus gives them a lift
Fadingpain Posted October 5, 2016 Posted October 5, 2016 Anyone have an opinion about Cleveland beating New England? Today with Schopp and the Bulldog, John Clayton said something to the effect that there is a high probability of Brady only playing 3 quarters, as he is rested for the 4th with a huge lead. A way to ease him back into the lineup if you will. If that is Clayton's prediction, I am thinking the Patriots lose 35-17.

billsfan89 Posted October 5, 2016 Posted October 5, 2016 (edited) It's a toss up game, Rams have a slightly better defense but it is about a push as both defense are pretty dam good. Rams special teams are slightly better since their kicker is better and they have Austin who is a threat in the return game. Bills have a better offensive unit, I would take Tyrod at QB and the Bills offensive line while skill positions are a push. Rams of course are at home which is an advantage. This seems to me like it is going to be a 1 score game that comes down to turnovers and one or two big plays. If the Bills are a playoff team they win this game, if they lose tough road to hoe.

That would be awesome sauce but I suppose if I like that, I'd have to accept 7% chance of us beating the Rams. WTF, seriously? I know they're 3 and 1, but they've allowed more points than they've scored, too.
