NFL Week #18 - Patriots @ Bills - Pregame thread!

[VaMilBill]

I really think James Cook is gonna go off today and have a big game

[78thealltimegreat]

Going to be hard to keep the emotions in check for this one. These guys know if they win they don’t play a true road game for the rest of the year. Patriots are walking into an absolute buzzsaw.

Oldmanfan actually creating the game day thread?!  Is this the TBD version of leading the charge?  I LIKE it.

Of course, he did it by quoting an old Chiefs coach, but hey, it’s the effort that counts.

Gonna be nothing better than to eliminate the Patriots from the playoffs.

Just win and come away healthy. It's go time. Ending the Pats season is the cherry on the parfait.

Trying to separate Damar’s situation from “regular” injuries and this is my concern as well. 
 

I’d rather play with a full roster in Arrowhead (assuming, ya know, we win two playoff games) than limp onto a neutral field.

No excuse for our offense not to have a huge game today.

Never a bad day to beat the Pats.  I’m looking forward to the close up on Belichick’s face when he realizes the game is out of reach.

Is it ok to say I won’t be surprised if they come out a little flat and don’t light the world on fire with 56 touchdowns in the first minute?

 

Let’s remember that as much as we were worried about Damar, we don’t know the guy. These 53 went through some brutal emotions this week. Let’s cut them some slack if their humanness shows up a bit today. 
 

Go bills.

Nah, I would actually love to kick their a@@es today… then have dolphins and Steelers lose… only to have New England return to Buffalo next week for another serving of a@@ kicking. 
 

2 in row, to knock them out of playoffs would just be glorious.

I definitely don't see them coming out flat. If anything,  I think they will be overly jacked up and and may make a couple of boneheaded mistakes but clean it up after the first series.

point well-taken.

[Ethan in Cleveland]

I'd sit Poyer in this game and rest him for the playoffs.  They can beat Mac Jones with any warm body at safety.
