Your Maestro(Tabula?)/Reverend (Pats/Bills) Darby and Open Thread

That first game. Wow, what a doozy! That play midway through the third quarter? Amazing! JK, I’m composing this 1 1/2 hours before the first tilt even starts.

To The Game!

Pats/Bills:

-Is McDermott at a place in his coaching career where he can beat Old Bill twice in one season? Sure, he did it last season. (it was a trick question)

-Last time these teams played the Bills placed their lb’s almost directly behind the d-line, daring Macaroon Jones to beat them through the air. He did not.

-As a matter of factoid, Jones has tossed up as many picks (5) in his last four games as he did in the first ten games of the season.

-As noted before, Daboll finally trusting Singletary for multiple series in a row has resulted in the latter averaging almost 100 yards from scrimmage over the last four games. In my opinion, this is the last piece of Buffalo’s puzzle-to be able to run time off the clock when they need to.

-Feeling Their Oats? (no idea what that means) The Bills have won three of their last four vs the Pats. Before that they had lost 35 of the last 40.

-I’m thinking there might be a few frozen balls bouncing off the arms and chest of a few Buffalo pass catchers tonight. It’s not going to be “Canada Cold” but it will be cold enough.

-If the Pats play man (which is a rumor going round-likely started by Bill himself, that wily old codger) look for Allen to run a bit more than usual.

Play nice in the comments.
