Tom Brady and the New England Patriots look to remain unbeaten as they host the Buffalo Bills on Monday Night Football. The two teams have fairly efficient offenses, but the Patriots are obviously heavily favored in this matchup even with their devastating losses to injury in Julian Edleman and Dion Lewis.
Brady and Rob Gronkowski are going to need to connect in the red zone, while Danny Amendola will have to find a way to fill Edleman's shoes on critical third downs. Look for the Patriots to jump out early on the Bills just like they did in their first matchup.
Tyrod Taylor is going to need to match Brady blow for blow if the Bills are going to have any chance at stealing a rare win out of Foxborough tonight. They can do that through the running game, where the Patriots are rather soft at times. LeSean McCoy needs to break off a few big runs to keep the Patriots defense off balance.
Even so, the Patriots almost never lose at home and I just don't seem them dropping one against a team they so often dominate. Though I think this time, it will be closer than the Patriots would like.
Prediction: Patriots 27, Bills 24
