This is the league's first rematch of the season and unlike Week 1, when New England dug itself an early 10-point deficit before rallying for a 19-17 win, Tom Brady & Co., will have no problems with Buffalo this afternoon. Rested New England (6-3 ATS on road after a bye) was caught off guard by some new Buffalo wrinkles in the opener, but New Engald adjusted and dominated the second half of play (12-4 first downs, 204-74 total yards in the final two quarters). New England (14-2 SU and 12-4 ATS runs when facing a team the second time in a season) will not get out of the gates slow today. New Engalnd (19-7-1 ATS run in division play) plays well in Orchard Park and the last two years has had decided average advantages in both first downs (27-13) and total yards (446-260). They are the better team with the better the better quarterback and they will cover this number.
Buffalo struggles with its air attack (27th in the league) and on a cold, wet, windy day, J.P. Losman won't find a whole lot of success against this New England defense. New England will stack the box and stuff Willis McGahee and force ths inconsistent Losman to beat them. He won't. New England's defense will come to play.

After some early game protection issues in the opener against Buffalo, the New England offenisve line has been very solid this year. They also blew open holes to allow New England backs to run for 181 yards against Buffalo in the opener when Buffalo was much healthier up front than it is now. Make no mistake, Buffalo is a sub-par run defense team and allowed the league's worst running team, Detroit, to dominate them up front last week as Detroit averaged five yards per carry. Tom Brady (10-1 SU versus Buffalo) does not fear this defense and Bill Belichick will have a solid plan in place for his team coming off the bye. New England, which ranks sixth in the league in rushing, will control the line of scrimmage and the clock as the visitors from Boston dominate this game. New England by at least two touchdowns!
