Patriots have three wins against opponents who are .500 or better.   Bills have one.

 

FACT CHECK ON AISLE 1

Wins over NYETS x 2 

Texans 

 

Browns .500

Chargers .556

Panthers w/ Darnold .500

If you aren't concerned about the Patriots, you should be.

 

Pats schedule.

 

at ATL

TEN

at BUF

at IND

BUF

JAC

at MIA

 

My guess is they probably beat the Falcons and should definitely beat the Jaguars. The rest of the games won't be easy. NE has always had trouble in Miami and that was with Brady.

While my thoughts are on the Colts this weekend, the Patriots actually have a good team. IMO, for what it is worth, Football Outsiders does a pretty good job of breaking teams and players down according to DVOA (Defense-adjusted Value Over Average). The following is their Top 5 in overall team efficiency and SB odds:

They probably win but I feel like they are who they have been.  I want to see them behind and what happens.  I dont think it ends well.  They are a 500. football team a few good bounces they win more than lose.

they have a great defense, a great coach, a good oline and run game and a QB not making many big mistakes. I mean that formula has been a successful formula multiple times in this league.

Def a good team.  This offseason will be interesting for them.  Some of the UFA they need to resign or replace: McCourty (S), Brown (RT), Hightower (MLB), Jackson (CB), White (RB), Folk (K), Collins (OLB). 

 

While they aint broke, spotrac only has them with 31 million in cap space with potential savings from Agholor (5 mil), Mason (7 mil), Godchaux (5 mil), Jones (5 mil), Van Noy (5 mil), Bourne (3 mill), Anderson (3 mil).  I think theres a pretty decent chance they take a step back as core pieces of that defense might be gone.

Absolutely right. They are right behind the Bills, defensively, particularly against the pass. They are a little more vulnerable against the run than the pass, but still very good. They are one of the better offenses in the league on 1st down and short down and distance situations. Where they struggle on offense is 2nd /3rd and long (+7 yds). They are fundamentally sound on both sides of the ball. They will be a very tough 2 (maybe 3) games.

I will tell you what is going to be really hyped up. The two games between the Bills and Pats starting with the MNF game in Orchard Park. That MNF game will have ratings off the charts for ESPN.

The Bills have some games to win before we get to see how the hype train rolls into that matchup. If, as we hope, the Bills keep winning and the Pats follow suit, MNF has themselves a perfect December matchup.

[RichRiderBills]

Most threads about a 6-4 team ever.

 

In all seriousness, they are a bit over hyped. News flash, Pats are over hyped and exposed. 

 

I think the Falcons have a legit shot at the upset Thursday.

Looking forward to our two matchups with them. Two men enter, one man is victorious.

You should pay some attention.  They are a complete team.

Defense, and power running game I agree, but they lack a vertical passing game w dangerous WR's. 

 

I think a complete team needs that dimension.  We have the personnel to play them in man coverage with a single high safety or even Cover 0 and flood that first 10 yards with defenders. 

 

Cant wait for that game.

I'd rather beat them on MNF with the Division lead on the line.    Now that would be cool.   

 

Pats had a great roster last year and would have competed for the division had not 12 key guys do the Covid op-out.    So Bills fans need to realize that the Pats did not go anywhere post-Brady.  Their roster has been solid and they have some of the best coaching and front office work in the league.   I want to beat them straight up with a team that wants to be out there beating a team that seems to be in fear of the coaches/organization.      

 

No backing into the division hoping that a crap Falcons team helps us out.  That is a lame approach.   Our team can compete with anyone when healthy, which they now are.    Go Bills.

Just know the formula for national media NFL coverage.

2) Mahomes 

3) Rodgers

4) Brady

5) Patriots

Rodgers has dropped in the power rankings

Wait, I read everywhere on this board that the Chiefs are the most hyped 6-4 team ever...

They sure are, or were. Even at the bottom of the division at 2-3 when facing the Bills the NFL had them at 3 in power rankings!

 

Let's not sugarcoat it: their offense is scary and they can beat anyone

 

The Cheats are unexpected, and well, on a roll. Scary for sure. The two Bills game against them looked to be meaningless at the start of the season. Now they become statement games, with the Bills needing to bury them to win the AFCE.

Just stop. The Bills are always talked about...Allen is as well

I get the hatred for New England but sometimes it’s nice to take the homer shades off. They were not expected to be super competitive, we all laughed and laughed when they spent their free agent money how it wasn’t gonna work that well. Well here they are, they have as good a shot as anyone. 
The media is always going to hype the hotter teams up. Look at all the press cam Newton got for a one yard rushing touchdown and a one yard passing touchdown
