"Run the ball and play defense" ..

Blech.

Very possible.

They are evenly matched, that's why I bet the under even though I liked the Patriots slightly more last game because of the conditions.

Buffalo could have had one of Allen's screwball passes get caught in the end. Buffalo guys were open.

That Dolphins defense is going to give him fits. They're talented and well-coached, by a former Patriot no less.

Not saying I agree that's the case in reality, but the numbers like the Pats, especially right now.

They've been shit kicking pretty much everyone they play for the last two months so that makes sense.

The rookie QB will likely limit them from making it to the Super Bowl.

Yeah, I mean, it's hard to argue w/ a 150 pt point differential. The Patriots are kicking ass right now.

Now I think a BIG part of that is a soft schedule, but the numbers are what the numbers are.

And looking at Buffalo's slate, as well as some of the tie-breaker scenarios, there's a WAY better chance that they miss the playoffs outright than there is that they get the 1 seed, IMO. They're in a world of trouble here. They need to win 4 of 5 w/ the Colts having the tie-breaker over them. I don't think 10-7 gets them in - I think they'll need 11.

I just don't see them doing that with the way their schedule sets up.

Whatever. You are not beating pats defense this year unless you have a stud QB that can. Tua is not and will get exposed.

I didn't say the Dolphins will win, you should really try reading instead of shitposting.

And I'm absolutely shocked, just shocked, I tell you, that Red Dawg loves this Patriots team.

Chode.

Right, but now he doesn't have to shut down Mahomes. Nowdays, either Mahomes' receivers shut him down or Mahomes shuts himself down.

True. But KC also doesn't have a BIG 12 caliber defense either this year.

Let's worry about the Pats if/when we get to them. A lot can change in that amount of time.

Hell the Chargers and Titans might, too.

Would be sweeter than pie!
