Gabe has to APPEAR again this week. Belichick will try to take away Diggs on offense. It would be nice to see the PHYSICAL Bills show up and run the ball down their throats

 

100% we need Gabe and Shakir big time. I also hope we try to establish the run early and often. 

[Let's Go Buffalo]

It's good to have another Home game in the Division. Go Bills!

BUT, no freakin' way should the Bills lose either of these upcoming two games,

 

The fact that you are adamant that there is no freaking way the Bills should lose on the road to the team with the 2nd best record in the NFL is hilarious.

I don’t think he can go to the top of the mvp race after beating the 4th worst team in the league while playing at home. 
 

the following week….well that’s certainly possible.  If he can get 7 total rds over the final 2 weeks, I think he has a chance.  Those 7 tds might have to come along with 0 turnovers tho.  
 

At the moment, I don’t think he’s in the running according to most voters (regardless of whether or not he deserves to be). He’d have to really show out.

Well, here's the thing about the MVP race as it sits. Seemingly, no one is interested in giving it to a non QB. (If I had a vote I would go with CMC). Dak is done. Hurts is out. Really Lamar is the last man standing in the hype circle and he's been very average. If Allen comes out next week with a statement game against a defense that many around the league still view as a very good defense...it stacks numbers. He's played well against the Pats many times before. I don't think 4-5 TDs and 350 total yards is unfathomable this week. 

 

Miami has played well on defense as well. I think they contain Lamar a bit. 

 

Really if Allen doesn't win it and they HAVE to give it to a QB...I would want Tua to win it before Lamar. Better numbers and would likely cost Miami more money on Tua's impending contract. 

[ALLinALLEN]

Despite the win vs DEN, NE had 7 drives end in punts. Denver had 8 (if you count the 4th and out on their first drive).

 

We will be fine as long as we don't do that.

A team that we trounced by 28 points, who has Jalen Ramsey a CB that Josh has routinely made to look silly, in temperatures in the mid 70s?

 

Yeah, there is no freaking way we should lose that game... we would have 10 wins and if the best team in the league beats the Phins, they have 11 wins.

Belichick will try to take away Diggs on offense. 

Actually with Diggs being a no show for half the season, Belichick won’t know what to take away. Cook?  Harty?  David Edwards?

As we all know, David Edwards saves his best receiving games for the end of the season… Say what?!

Best case is some hurt guys get healthy and we continue to stack W’s all the way to the Super Bowl. Can’t say I’m confident but it’s definitely possible.

 

I think you mean “somewhat probable”. 

[Rockinon]

This will be a game where Cook and the TEs get some targets in the pass game. Would really like to see some misdirection presnap and for the offense to just roll right over NE. Hoping to see Brady come up with some nice wrinkles, get the offense looking unstoppable heading into the playoffs. This team has the talent. Would really be great to start seeing some of that elusive consistency from the offense.

 

It's been a wild ride this year, but I can't help thinking, the Bills are right on the verge of a breakout game and then never looking back.

[Beast]

Last 2 road game the Pats beat Pittsburgh and Denver. (Appreciate them doing that but I’ll never admit it)

 

It will be a tough, divisional game. Like most games in the NFL, it will probably be a one score game at some point in the 4th quarter. I believe the Bills will come out on top but it will be a battle.

I don't think some realize that we aren't guaranteed a playoff spot if we win out... we have an 82% chance if none of the teams we need to lose lose this week.

The Bills win out and they are in.

Running game worked against Dallas..

so try the same plan against Chargers..

 

the try the exact same plan against the Patriots….and don’t realize its not working until midway through the 3rd quarter…

then let Josh be Josh and we win another nail biter.

I would normally agree. Just don't see it playing out that way this time around. NE all ready had one game like that this year. Ain't happening again. Really think the Bills dominate this one.

[Niagara Dude]

Another possible trap game,  I really would like to see the Bills using this game to get their passing game going.  I don't believe you will go far in the playoff depending on the running game unless you have some dominant defence which we do not have.  The year they went on a run it was because of passing the ball,  I don't buy this suger high for running the football because we did great against a small defensive Dallas front that is geared to rushing the passer. 

 

Look at the Raven,  they pass first.  If we're going to make a run then it needs to be using our QB and passing the ball and that includes using Cook in the passing game

Unless we get away from Cavemen football and start passing the ball more than this team will not go far.

We are guaranteed to be in if we win out.

[Niagara Dude]

The Raven transformed their defence after they traded a 3rd & 5th rounder to the Bears for Smith.  That was a massive homerun trade and Bills blew it with overpaying a much older Von Miller. We could have given Smith the same money and even a little less than what Miller received

 

Even before the injury the contract at his age never made sense and right now he looks like he will never regain the ability to bend while rushing the QB.  Again on Saturday he did very little if anything 

[Don Otreply]

Like as been said up thread, division games are hotly contested and any win is a positive.  Our guys need to come out firing on all pistons from the get go, I see a two score winning margin or more for the Bills.

 

 

GO BILLS!!!

[Rockinon]

Prediction: When Jones comes back, the defense will go on a tear.

Gabe had a 130yd game last week. I think they've all ready recognized that and are working on it.
