This week will be one of the easiest weeks all year to pick the Patriots. As if you didn't know, I'm going with the Pats this week. But at least let me throw some reasons out there for you.
First, Offense.
Second, Defense.
The Bills Offense is 32nd in passing, 17th in rushing and 31st overall.
The Pats Offense is 4th in passing, 8th in rushing and 2nd overall.
The Bills Defense against the pass is 27th, the run 30th and 31st overall.
The Pats Defense against the pass is 5th, the run 1st and 1st overall.
Game over.
The Patriots Keys to Victory:
1- avoid a let down
2- block Schobel, he's the only playmaker on Buffalo's D.
3- don't let Buffalo hang around, they'll gain confidence as the game goes on if they're hanging around in the second half.
A victory on Sunday will give the Pats a near insurmountable lead of 3 games over the Bills and either the Jets or Dolphins who play each other this week. Three weeks in, 2 divisional opponents will be virtually illiminated from contention.
The easy pick here is:
Pats 41
Bills 7
JP Losman throws a bomb to Roscoe Parrish who beats Asante for the lone Bills TD and Matt Cassell (I hope) plays the entire 4th quarter.
Videogate:
It appears that videogate is finally over. The Pats gave the league it's cheating materials and the league burned them. Hopefully I won't have to write about it anymore. I did find a great article by SI's Peter King regarding videogate.

Although my respect for King has diminished since I found out some "stuff" about him and the Colts, this is a good article with good sources.
Tell your friends you heard it here!

Morning Tom, Los here...not LOSMAN haha. Hey man good call; 41-7! The game started with a very sluggish start on offense, but their defense once again comes through with veteran leadership and toughness, although against a very young quarterback. Nevertheless final score 38-7. The x-factor on the Bills...Marshawn Lynch. He makes the Bills look better and better each week with the McGahee trade. Against a very tough run defense he still manages 74 yds. and a tough TD. Also, that young secondary showed their experience having Brady torch them for 300+ yds. and 3 TD's. Having the release of Clements look even worse. How about that box out with the over the shoulder catch for a TD by Moss. Each week Maroney looks like his chain is getting longer, hopefully his collar comes off soon. Alright, man have a good one. Later
