That's twice this year the Jets have given you a heart attack!
Not how the Pats want to go into the playoffs.

you saw the list of inactives, did you not? Noticed all the second stringers and second-position players he turned loose at times during the game?
Not a worry in Pats nation. This weekend will likely be more of the same. This time, at home, I suspect you'll see instant offense, followed by a lot
of Garrapoli(sp?) by the fourth quarter. We'll go to the playoffs with a week of extra rest, home field through the AFC championship and a relatively
healthy lot, despite a few core losses. Feeling real good this year, as I see no team out there, save the Packers or maybe Seattle who can come close to
playing with us. Yes, that leaves out Denver, who, should they make it that far, we will crush in Foxborough.

I took Cincy in all my football pools this week. There's something wrong with Peyton Manning. Another 4 picks last night.

kinda fun watching them kill off the Eagles chances. I had gotten a bit sick of the whole 'Chip Kelly is a genius, and nobody can stop us
from winning the Super Bowl' BS that had been floating until December around this way.
oh, and thanks be to the Bengals. The Buffalo game should be a day of rest for most of the first string after a short public appearance
on Sunday.

The current line is Pats -10.5
I'm thinking about putting a few pesos down on Buffalo and taking the points!

watch out for a mutual dog and pony show of backups, preceded by a short sendoff series or two from the first string. If that happens, the Pats beat them handily, because our backups are better than theirs, especially at QB. They have nothing to play for with Cincy winning.

After what Buffalo has been through this year? My guess is they keep their starters in the entire game and try to go out with a win against the evil Patriots.
The Bills will play for pride.

were the game being played in Buffalo, I'd agree. However, the Pats are going out for the Foxborough crowd, and won't lose. I figure they'll win by two touchdowns, which covers spread, maintains home momentum and doesn't embarrass a gallant Buffalo team.
