But, having said that, wind coming off the water in Boston is no joke, either.

This is why I am excited about this game. It's Tom Brady. It's the Hoodie. It's the Pats. They are the single most battle-tested and proven dynasty in history. They're not the pussy ass dome-team Colts. They know the elements. They run the ball. They play defense and pass protect. They are smart and talented and execute good game plans.

Whoever goes to the Super Bowl will have ****ing earned it this year. The four best teams remain, like the 2008 Final Four. No flukes. No Cinderellas.

And 2008 worked out for me pretty well, so...

I would think people prefer super cold with no precip over the precip conditions last weekend.

Anthony Hitchens was supposed to be the guy so the Chiefs paid him a ton of money. Whoops, he's really great at tackling people in the secondary, I guess?

Anyone watch the Pats v. Bills game? I know the Bills have a good defense and a good secondary... but I was surprised to see that they held Brady to a 48.3 QB rating. Bob Sutton should be watching that game film & mimic as much as our personnel will allow. :)

This will be the issue. Dorian O'Daniel, who missed the last game is by far our best cover LB but he is a liability against the run.

Pats fan here

Tom did not play well vs BUF the second time. 1st time he owned them. With that said he had been dealing with a sprained MCL from the TN game to the Pitt loss. Hes feeling good now.

The book on Tom is simple.

-Tight man coverage on the outside.
-Flood the middle of the field
-Get pressure up the middle (DT or disguised blitz)

Bills have a rock-solid secondary and fast LBs.

I think your D is better than the #s but not sure you have BUFs personnel?
