Actually, this is what you said - "I think someone like Jerry Hughes taking out a knee or slamming extra hard to the turf on a shoulder and getting a 15 yard penalty is well worth them not having 12* the rest of the game."

 

We view things/value humans differently.  No big deal.  No sense in arguing over it.

I suppose I could have worded "taking out a knee" different. I see how that may be taken as a dirty hit. As far as Brady getting slammed to the ground, I would view as aggressive play...but with the rules it would likely be a penalty. And one I could live with.

I'd rather beat teams without making hit lists and executing them.   You know ... play better football and stuff like that.

tip balls at the line of scrimmage 

 

This plus jump in the throwing lanes.

 

just count to 3 and jump up after the ball has been snapped.

Have the corners just maintain the line of scrimmage. Play the flat from the line of scrimmage, play the slants from the line of scrimmage...

The only way we win is if we somehow convince NE they are playing another team and they to show up to the wrong stadium.

Someone will need to collapse the middle of the pocket. Gotta get hits on Brady

Hit brady.  Have Milano in at LB.  Use some exotic blitzes.  I think White can handle Cook 1 on 1.  Gaines should be okay,  and do whatever we did to Kelse to Gronk to keep him out of the game.

I would say the best chance we have to beat Brady is to drop into coverage and bring 4. If we had better pass rushers I would say bring the pain but our pass rush is below average and Brady would pick up the Blitz and throw for 400. We need to make his throwing windows as tight as possible and hope Hughes has his best day of the year and it's very windy.

Wtf? I lived in Buffalo for 30 years, I'm well aware.

 

The OP asked for keys to beating the Pats*, extreme weather and a NE12 catastrophic injury were the only two realistic scenarios that came to mind.

[Boatdrinks]

Pick a random low level defensive sub and have him give the Marcus Pollard treatment to Brady's knee. It will be worth the penalty . Even if the game is lost, at least the Super Bowl won't have any Patriots who haven't got a ticket.

i don't trust the weather 3 days in advance here, much less a week (almost 50 years as a life-long WNYer here). you can bet that the forecast will change every day between now and Sunday and 46 and sunny is very unlikely.

Your witty optimism and tremendous humanity arrive just in time for the holiday season....your mom must be so proud.

Rent Ndamukong Suh from Miami for the day.

Playing dirty might be the only way to beat Brady.

[Virgil]

Long drives on offense.  TDs, not FG’s. 

 

Press coverage, no LB’s covering Gronk of WR’s, hit Brady.....a lot!

The only way we get press coverage is when we have a blowhard coach.

 

Oh wait, that press coverage...

[RiotAct]

Prayer.  

 

Just kidding... contain Gronk, contain Lewis, and limit the mistakes.  I think this game will be very close.

[JM2009]

6-6 to 8-6. NE is still to good because of Brady.

[Kelly the Dog]

For the Bills, and the NFL, it's usually all about fundamentals and execution, so in order to beat the Patriots we need to keep it simple and do two things: 1] Stop doing what we're doing and 2] start doing what they're doing.

I'm pulling out my Brady voodoo doll as we speak...
