Win over the Chargers on the road was impressive. They look like a WC team at this point. I didn't think much of Jones at the time of the draft but he is completing 68% of his passes. And he has over 7 yards per attempt so even if most of the passes are short they are moving the ball.

Defense is just outside of top 10. 

Should be good games this year to see how McD challenges the rookie and what our offense can do against their defense.

 

Honestly don’t care we have Josh Allen they don’t

definitely making waves and i would not take them lightly.

They are definitely much better than last year. It’s going to be 2 tough games against them. Belichick always seems to know how to give our offense fits. McDermott/Daboll have only scored more than 25pts against the Patriots once.

 

The pats are absolutely not the same team as last year, and even last year with that horrid offense and a defense missing a bunch of starters the Bills first win was a close game (24-21).

 

Jones is significantly better than Newton. Their offense is much improved with him at QB and he hasn’t exactly looked like a rookie. He has a good command of that offense and he isn’t getting rattled as easy as rookie QBs usually do. He fits that offense perfectly. Their defense is significantly better than last year too (getting back 5+ starters will do that...).

 

Bills fans should not be overlooking the Patriots. Belichick still knows how to coach. Remember, before they had to field a garbage team last season McDermott hadn’t won a single game against belichick. He lost 6 straight times to NE.

And you know NE is going to be out for blood from that 38-9 loss from last season.

 

I expect it to be a hard fought battle against them. The Bills are going to have to play a complete game against them to win. It can’t be a showing like yesterday, or like the Steelers game.

Pats are a tough team. They are using Jones for what he's good at and they have a stout D. This is the same old pats. Buffalo is better though. We should win both games vs them. There is a good chance we split though

[starrymessenger]

Judon is going crazy. Wish he were a Bill.

[Brianmoorman4jesus]

They lost a few super close games to the bucs and Cowboys. They are pretty decent. People just expecting those 2 games to be came walks are in for a rude awakening. We are putting the cart before the horse way to often here. This division isn’t “over” like people though week 3

[MAJBobby]

Lets see

 

Wins against Jets, Houston, Jets, Chargers.

 

I dont see anything majorly impressive in those wins (maybe Chargers) 

[hondo in seattle]

I don't get the guys who say they don't care.  The Pats are a divisional opponent.  And they're playing decent ball.  

 

I'd rather have the Pats suck and give us two easy wins each year. 

 

But after they beat the Chargers, it looks like they can give us a fight.

because we don’t see them as a threat

when the Bills hit 40 they sit starters

Agreed, when 50% of your wins are against the Jets it is hard to take the 4 wins as a sign of anything.

Specially when you havent faced their better QB in Mike White.  LMAO

[TBBills]

Patriots don't look special when you watch them. Should be an easy 2 wins against them.

 

Leave it to gene to think everyone is still better than the Bills.

Never dismiss any team but don’t glorify them either.  Yesterday’s win was their first in a very long time that did not come against either the Texans or the Jets.

I would add the Saints as well.

Any given Thursday and all that, but I wouldn't. Only thing that may make that game competitive is Payton's ingenuity.  

[Greg S]

Probably not going to get any help next Sunday as they are at the Panthers. They will probably ghost Darnold again.

I'm glad McD and the players will take the games more seriously than you seem to.

[MAJBobby]

13 more in a row and we avenge the 70s.  Run it up everytime.

You don't care who makes the playoffs and might be a potential playoff matchup? 

 

Bills fans obsess over NE. No I don't care at this time and truthfully evaluating anything right now is a mute point. Good for NE they are 4-4, they could also be 5-8 in four weeks and none of this matters or 8-4 idk idc, we are at week 9 the NFL landscape is vastly different every year come seasons end.

Only time I will care about the patriots is on 12/6 and 12/26
