Wind gusting to 50MPH. Wind chill in the single digits. Snow showers and a snowy field. Should be an interesting game tonight in Buffalo

Wind is a killer -- will undoubtedly have an impact on the game. I suppose it'll be good experience for Max.  He's handled everything else pretty well so far.
The team that can run the ball the best when running into the wind, probably wins the game. The QBs shouldn't have a problem throwing with the wind at their backs, but throws longer than 7-10 yards in the air going into the wind is probably your only passing option during those quarters.

The Pats are going to have to be the more physical team in their offensive and defensive lines to win this game. Run between the tackles and have a front 7 on defense that forces the Bills to try to throw. That will be the winning formula.

I feel good about the Patriots’ offensive line, Harris, and Stevenson.  Plus, Mac’s short yard accuracy in these strong winds.  This is going to be a fun game to watch.

The kicking game is going to be a disaster and totally entertaining.

I don't necessarily want a 68-57 big 12 game style, but I don't really like it if the weather is so bad the teams won't even attempt to pass it is very entertaining. Hoping the rest of the game is not much like the first two drives there. Doesn't really tell us much about the teams imo.

Wind moving the goalposts almost one foot in either direction at the top of them.

Bill only running the ball at this point

This has been one of the dumbest gameplans I might have ever seen.. 10 straight runs on offense then we put the guy who's never returned a punt out there for some reason just to screw everything up. My mind is just blown right now at the stupidity...
everyone got so sensitive after 9-11... thanks alot bin laden

That misplay by Harry is a cuttable offense. Just absolute bonheaded move to even remain in the vicinity after he decided not to go for the catch. He single-handedly just gave the Bills a TD.

Game plan is actually very good. Run it down the Bills throats. That's going to pay off late in the game.

The decision to have Harry anywhere near handling a punt return was dumb and compounded by Harry's idiotic decision not to run away from that ball.

Yea I mean I can only question anything Bill does so much. I really would like to see us do a few short passes this drive though while we have the wind. We are up 14 and the bills will have the ball and the wind in the third.

Nope - no passes again. I sort-of understood the game plan in the 1st, but I have no idea why they chose to only run in the 2nd. Mac is a professional QB - he can handle some passes with the wind behind him.

Stephenson is a tough runner.  Harris too but looks like he's done for the game. Good timing for a hamstring I guess with the bye. 

Gutsy throw by Allen - and it was right there.

That was a petty call on Myles Bryant

Play calling way too conservative for the Pats. Can’t throw a 5 yard pass? Come on...
