Week 15: Patriots vs. Bills
Will we take back the AFCE Crown?
Thoughts from the board
Ricomandog
Patriots win streak will finally end this week to Bills who are seeking revenge and looking to restore order as the only real good team in the AFC East. Patriots are lucky with an easy schedule. It will finally catch up to them.
Bills win 42-24
Bold Prediction: Josh Allen throws for 4 TDS and Rushes for 3 TDs. Show me them TDs!

Hard to sweep a team as good as the Bills, and gotta believe they want revenge after their loss to the Pats earlier in the season. Hoping the Pats can prove me wrong.
Bills win 24-23
Bold Prediction: Pats defense intercepts Allen 2x.

I know, I know. I've brought up the law of averages before blah blah blah. It'll be interesting to see if the bye week affects how the Pats start the game. One hopes Vrabel keeps them on task. A problem, however, is that Josh Allen has a knack for coming up big at the times the Bills are in trouble. Should the Pats win (please,please,please) it'll be hat and T-shirt time for the first time in quite awhile.
Bills win 27-21
Bold Prediction: Another Pats special teams TD.

I'm going bold: not only do the Pats complete the sweep for the division, they do it by blowing out the Bills at home. The offense hasn't played a full 60-minute game in a few weeks; what better time to get back to it than after the bye?
Patriots win 43-15
Bold Prediction: Spillane & Gonzo with a pick-six each
Jdog
I actually think the Bills may take this game but I can't pick against them or it's bad luck. I think we end up struggle to contain Josh Allen on the run. Game will be a nail biter and Tums type game. Pats score a go ahead FG with not much time left on the clock for Josh to mount a come back
Patriots win 31-30
Bold Prediction: No turnovers for either team
Mr. Roger Badell
Pats are solid all around. Bills O gets not much going except 2 TDs off Allen's legs. One early...one garbage time Pats D will deliver 2 clean, but vicious hits, both resulting in a turnover. Maye finally hits 300 yards thanks to long receptions from Boutte and pop. Diggs is a decoy, most of game, drawing Bills top coverage.
Patriots win 37-20
Bold Prediction: Pats are flagged ZERO times!
Dino
The run game will determine the winner, and the Bills are the better run team (even though their run defense has not shone this season, neither has the Pats' of late). The Bills are just a bit better in most statistical areas, but are inconsistent, and we will have to wait and see which Bills team shows up.
Bills win 27-24
Bold Prediction: The Tight Ends of both teams will lead in receptions.

Feels like a "kitchen sink" game for the Bills. They will bring everything they got in this one. Patriots play well but Bills play better and get the win
Bills win 30-20
Bold Prediction: Drake with two picks
Oscar
Yes, the Bills defense is atrocious. But the Patriots are thin on the D-line, and James Cook is the #2 rusher in the league (and not that far behind Jonathan Taylor, either). This will be a game that the Bills win on the ground. The only reason the Pats won't score 50 points today is because Beefalo will control the clock.
Bills win 34-31
Bold Prediction: D'Ernest Johnson with the tuddy!

Once more unto the breach, dear freinds, once more; or close up the wall with our Patriot dead
Patriots win 33-24
Bold Prediction: Craig Woodson pick-6
RKing
Can we contain Josh Allen and James Cook? I think we can, but it's going to take a complete game in all 3 phases because the bills are legit. Drake gets it done and the pats are wearing hats and tshirts again.
Patriots win 27-21
Bold Prediction: Josh Allen scores 3 TDs but so does Drake
Lordy
Josh Allen will play week but have a strong second half while the Pats limit his team to less than 200 passing yards. Maye will keep it clean but only go over 200 yards barely but rushing will shine more.
Patriots win 31-28
Bold Prediction: Maye goes over 300 yards and runs 1 in. Diggs gets a 200 yard game.
Zoo
Stop Cook and stop Josh. Drake needs to take care of the ball and do what he's done all year and spread the ball around. Hendo and Mondre need to keep the defense on their toes. NE wins the Division back.
Patriots win 35-24
Bold Prediction: Maye gets his 300+ yard game and rushes for 100 yards
