Week 16: Bills at Pats - DISCUSSION

[IBTG81]

It looks like Dawkins. I was at the Jets game this year in the front watching them warm up. I remember thinking holy s, Dawkins has some massive calves. 
The calves match up. And I am

ashamed that I recognize them. Haha.

Do they have anyone on the list? 

 

Bs

There’s another. An important part of their DL. Feel better now?

I think the fill-ins step up big tomorrow. BB is going to put everything toward stopping Diggs.  I think Diggs will still be a significant factor, but I predict a thread praising McKenzie after the game, and another thread along the lines of "who is this Hodgins guy?  He should start!"

 

We're going to move the ball tomorrow, and Daboll will have a better plan for the red zone.  The Bills are going to remind everyone why they were SB favorites this year.

Daboll has had his head up his a$$ most of the season in the red zone, the odds he becomes brilliant tomorrow against the best defensive minded coach of all time is iffy at best.  Possible but certainly not probable. If they score in the red zone it’s because they unleashed Josh to run, not because Daboll suddenly gets smarter than BB.

Bummer, I was really looking forward to seeing what Bobby Hart could do. I heard he’s started a lot of NFL games. 😜

[Steptide]

Apologies if I missed it, but what refs do the Patriots have in their pocket tomorrow? 

[Process]

Beane blew it in the off-season. We should have approached this season as if Star wasn't even on the team and found a replacement. If he played it would just be a bonus. 

 

We should not have been relying on Star.

[NyQuil]

I wonder if McDermott would elect to take the ball first tomorrow (if they win the toss) to try to put NE in a hole quick.

Losing both Wise & Stevenson?  That's pretty big.  2 impact players on both sides of the ball.

Horrible Harry has begun to play well, hopefully he maintains.

Nope.  Double dipping is always better. They can put them in a hole by getting a stop then scoring.

Stop it.  The Bills are ranked 10th in the NFL standings right now.  Thats above average.

Have you watched around the league?  If you are calling the Bills average then all but about 4 teams are average or below. Which would make the Bills not average.

[Bimmer323i]

When’s the last time we had a game against a division rival for the division title… Early 90s I’m guessing prolly against Miami…. Man there’s so much on the line for us tomorrow but how much better can it get than this… I’m so freaking pumped for this game tomorrow don’t even know if I’ll be able to sleep tonight….
