Bills Survive Epic ‘MNF’ Clash

Kapadiaand everyone's talking about it.

KapadiaThe Patriots, the last two weeks, go look at what they've, how aggressive they've been on fourth down and how much it's paid off. Go look at that Lions game this week. Also, by the way, how often they went forward on fourth down. Like that's been a big deal for the Patriots. These last two weeks, just being like, Hey, we're on their side of the field and it's fourth and three, fourth and four.

KapadiaWe're going to empower our quarterback that, hey, we're going to have a play ready for you. Just execute it. And it feels like they've been hitting on those over and over again.

So if they actually solve their problems and these aren't just two anomalies and this is who they actually are, they're a threat again.

GilAnd I think we were questioning early in the season, hey, you know, it was a stinker of a first game, right? And then you start having the cover six conversations for Drake and that they figure him out again. But if they did solve these problems, they're going to be a problem in the AFC, which I don't think we thought was the case two
