If the Pats lose, I think that would be the beginning of the end of the franchise. I've seen it happen this year with the Sox already - the same team that was six games under .500 (before the LA salary dump) was almost IDENTICAL to the team that had, by far, the best record in baseball after the first ten games and before the final 15.

I thought at the beginning of this week that the Patriots would win this game by a minimum of three TD's. Now that Logan Mankins (the only significant O Lineman on the Patrtiots team) and Gronkowski (no Hernandez and no Gronk is a scary thought) may both miss this game has me thinking this game is going to be a whole lot closer. I just can't see the Patriots losing this game, unless Brady doesn't plan on playing!

Well no one thought they would lose to Arizona either, but I think they will beat the Bills.

Mankins didn't even make the trip to Buffalo, so this one is looking a bit more possible for the Bills. Brady better be prepared to be slobber-knocked tomorrow afternoon.

The Bills beat KC and Cleveland pretty handily, but they got trounced by the Jets and lost all 4 preseason games. As banged up as NE is, they should score all day on Buffalo. The Bills have been giving it up like a hooker on dollar day.

The Jets didn't even score one offensive touchdown in the pre-season and scored 48 points in week 1. New England has always struggled against Buffalo in atleast one of their meetings each year. The Pats play in Buffalo and they lost to the Bills at Buffalo last season so it's still up in the air for me. Now I see Mankins is out and Gronk is hurting pretty bad. Mix that in with the fact that Brady's getting harassed even with Mankins in the lineup so the signs are there for Mario Williams to have a breakout game. I'll sleep on it.

Too many times have I been burned without going with my gut. Even though it's very, very hard to imagine Brady and the Pats dropping to 1-3, my gut is that they drop this in Buffalo. In Foxborough, I wouldn't change it but I don't like the Mankins injury when Brady is under fire enough in 2012. I'd rather be wrong when actually going with my gut this week.

Bills over Pats by 7.

Patriots by 3! The most intriguing game of the day is definitely Green Bay versus New Orleans. I have the Saints by a point.

by **YoungJRNY** » Mon Oct 01, 2012 3:41 am

Good game so far. Buffalo is losing the field position battle in the first half. Can't keep giving Brady good field position or it'll turn ugly quick. New England's run D is impressive. A couple key stops that could have been longer drives on the ground for Buffalo.

by **Seven Wishes2** » Mon Oct 01, 2012 4:03 am

Gronk is having a SHITTY year. He personally cost the Pats the game against Arizona with his two unnecessary head-up-the-ass touchdown-negating holds, dropped three AND committed a huge penalty against the Ravens, and was just 100% responsible for a 14-point swing with his fumble a minute ago in Buffalo territory. One could argue the Pats could be 3-0 without him this year...and if this terrible miscue winds up being the difference in the game, Gronkowski might well be responsible for the difference between 4-0 and 1-3. Rex Ryan was right.

by **Seven Wishes2** » Mon Oct 01, 2012 4:19 am

This is bullshit. Fuck Welker.

We're gonna be way below .500 this year. The dynasty is over.

by **YoungJRNY** » Mon Oct 01, 2012 4:34 am

Sloppy game. Both teams trading their own self destruction. Gronk and Welker fumble. Fitzpatrick 2 interceptions. Patriots 2 missed FG's. Bills fumble on 2 yard line. Anyone's game. Can't leave points on the field if you're the Bills. They need all they can get. Keeping Brady around isn't a good omen.

by **Seven Wishes2** » Mon Oct 01, 2012 4:36 am

Time to get rid of Gostkowski. Two gimme field goal misses today, plus giving up about 70 yards on two horrendous kickoffs. It's in his head...this happens with kickers...time to go.

by **Seven Wishes2** » Mon Oct 01, 2012 4:46 am

Nice catch, Dropkowski. He fucking sucks.

by **YoungJRNY** » Mon Oct 01, 2012 4:47 am

Bills CB Gillmore is having the game of his life. Dislodging the ball from Gronk's hands at the last second. Another TD negated by a good defensive play. Bills are frustrating the Pats like no other.

by **Seven Wishes2** » Mon Oct 01, 2012 4:55 am

What a massive butt fuck this is.

Gronkowski cost us seven with the TD drop, another seven with his fumble...Gostkowski the win against Arizona...

It's offically over. We're not going to the playoffs, and we're not finishing over .500. The dynasty is offically over for good.

by **YoungJRNY** » Mon Oct 01, 2012 5:01 am

You're one of those quitters, huh, 7? lol. If Bellichick and Brady aren't running up the score week to week, they will never be beaten again. Get punched in the mouth for 3 QRTS in a 7 point game and the dynasty is over. Typical. :lol:

by **Seven Wishes2** » Mon Oct 01, 2012 5:09 am

No. Just pissed. This is bullshit football for a team this talented.

by **YoungJRNY** » Mon Oct 01, 2012 5:17 am

You'd never survive a Steelers game if you were a Steelers fan, lmao. This game you see here with the Pats/Bills is a typical Steelers vs whomever matchup. The Steelers have had massive talent on both sides of the ball for years upon years, but yet, rarely beat down a team by more than 2 TD's. 4 QRTS, dude. 4 QRTS.

by **Seven Wishes2** » Mon Oct 01, 2012 5:18 am

Plus I'm still suffering from Boston Fan Inferiority Complex after the debacle of the Sox' season.

by **YoungJRNY** » Mon Oct 01, 2012 5:29 am

Should the Pats still cut Gronk and Welker?

by **Seven Wishes2** » Mon Oct 01, 2012 5:30 am

Never said that. Gostkowski was the guy I said needs to go.

Gronkowski has had his head up his ass all year...different thing, though.

by **YoungJRNY** » Mon Oct 01, 2012 5:31 am

That's right, my bad. I had him mixed up with that Dropkowski guy that sucks :lol:

by **YoungJRNY** » Mon Oct 01, 2012 5:41 am

Impressive comeback by the Pats and they are doing it on the ground. The Bills d-line is getting gashed and if I were Buffalo fans, I'd ask for that money back from that slob Mario Williams. What a bum. Dude has been running in quick sand all day.

by AR » Mon Oct 01, 2012 5:44 am

In one of my fantasy football leagues I have this going on.

Megatron = 3 pts
Julio Jones = 0 pts
Kyle Rudolph = 0 pts

On top of that mess my opponent is my wife this week. :lol:

One of these days, you fuckers will understand that there are two halves of football for a reason...they both count!

by **YoungJRNY** » Mon Oct 01, 2012 6:00 am

The Bills WERE frustrating the Pats like no other. No Steelers game today so I'm just postin as the game goes along. I told SevenWishes when the Bills were still up by 7 that there are 4QRTS to be complete.

You're one of those quitters, huh, 7? lol. If Bellichick and Brady aren't running up the score week to week, they will never be beaten again. Get punched in the mouth for 3 QRTS in a 7 point game and the dynasty is over. Typical.

Can't leave points on the field if you're the Bills. They need all they can get. Keeping Brady around isn't a good omen.

You could just feel the momentum for New England, even though they were down by 14. That Buffalo fumble on the 2 did them in.

by **YoungJRNY** » Mon Oct 01, 2012 6:32 am

I've been pimpin the Falcons for 3 years now. They are literally on that brink to be a Lombardi contending team. They WILL be problems for the entire NFC if they can keep up this pace in their conference, especially with the Saints staring down 0-4.

by **Seven Wishes2** » Mon Oct 01, 2012 9:26 am

Wow. Un-be-fucking-lievable. I don't have a horse in this Packers-Saints game, but come on! That was the most blatantly clear fumble I've seen in years. I mean, it wasn't even close! No way you can tell me the Packers don't wind up with a TD an a nearly insurmountable 8-point lead. HORRENDOUS call.

by **Seven Wishes2** » Mon Oct 01, 2012 9:32 am

Wow. This is bullcrap.
