Will watch later. -ownloading day an -orrent tay right now.So what kind of grade would you give butler after last night? He made some plays, he gave up some plays, he had a couple plays he defended well but the receiver just made great catches. He drew coverage in arguably the best receiver in the league in his first real start, and b while he let up big numbers, I thought he played competently. Am I alone here?
One of my little theories is that the best mind from that Green Bay championship run is now in MIA. Another is that DAL will regress. And that IND makes hay off weak sisters. I'll go over three, but that's a good line.In looking at the league schedule, MIA could realistically start the season 6-0. They start @WAS, @JAC, BUF, NYJ, Bye, @TEN, HOU.
But then the rest of their schedule is way more difficult: @NE, @BUF, @PHI, DAL, @NYJ, BAL, NYG, @SD, IND, NE.
They will be a team to watch, but what do people think they will go over their last 10 games? 3-7? Better? Worse?
Lulz.... The Bills just shut down Luck without their best defensive player on the field. At will.... Cute.Easley 1-2 weeks with a hip pointer, I believe Blount is back (only 1 game sus.), on to Buffalo. Interesting matchup but we'll see who punches who in the mouth- and how they react. Can Taylor air it out when he's down 14 and the Pats are moving the ball at will? We'll see.
Colts infinitely softer than the Pats and not that great a road team. They were +73 in scoring differential at home last year and -38 scoring differential on the road. They did little to address their defense and both of their lines in the off season, which were issues the past few seasons.Lulz....

But we have a GRONK!Rex typically puts together a really good defensive game plan against the Pats and has probably his most talented defensive team in at least a few years. Add to that a crazy home crowd and I will be surprised if the Pats put up a lot of points. I'd love to see it but I have my doubts.

Seeing McCoy is dinged. Could be just head games.
Gonna be a tough matchup for the interior line against the Buffalo D line, especially those massive DTs. I'm not terribly confident this week.Ryan Wendell not playing Sunday

Rex, hostile crowd, Bill's D strengths match up on Pats (perceived) weakness. I expect this to be one of their toughest tests this year.
Rex wasn't at the helm last year. Big difference.Seems like people are forgetting that Brady went 27/37 with 361 yards and 4 TDs IN Buffalo last season in mid October with a worse offensive line. It won't be any louder there than it was last season. Pats roll 34-14 and shut up the fans at the Ralph by halftime.
That is what I think about your post and Patriot fans in general.This game is so much more important to bills fans than patriots fans. I don't hate the bills. I kind of like them. I like Rex, I like shady, I like their defense, and I like young mobile qbs with moxie. I went to buffalo for Bledsoe's first game as a bill, and it was fun watching them beat another afc east opponent. I went there again for a frigid winter game that was as cold as any game I've seen at Foxboro.
It's hard to really hate them. They've been as mediocre as any team in NFL history. Even their greatest accomplishment is a historic example of losing. They have a couple hall of fame players, but none of them are remotely in the best of all time discussion. They were in danger of winning a playoff game so they benched flutie for rob Johnson.
Their most famous plays are called wide right and the music city miracle. Their only real criminal is a murderer who got laughed at in the naked gun movies and got cheated on before stealing his own sports memorabilia.
And once again, their fans are excited about some new savior, a new rob Johnson, or ej Manuel, or whatever they think this guy can be. He leads the team to fewer than 150 yards and a touchdown and they're legitimately excited because they haven't seem anything this good in years.
And they imported another lovable loser, whose losing record as head coach, failed quarterback tattoo and failed lap band surgery do nothing but endear him to Canada's second favourite team.
The buffalo fans are plenty obnoxious during the deflate gate stuff, but who could blame them. They have a worse inferiority complex than even the 2003 red Sox fan base. Their own state has two teams in every sport that have won more titles than they have. They couldn't say anything about hernandez because their best player in team history so famously murdered someone that ford had to stop making broncos.
And now they start a season with a win over a good team for the first time since the Milloy game, and you can see Lucy holding the football but this sad bunch of Charlie browns just don't get that it's happening again. They even got somebody from Guinness to fly out and watch them not set the crowd noise record in classic buffalo fashion. It's comedy in tragedy.
So I say go buffalo. Do you, the way nobody else can.
