00:00and we're actually starting off with one of the games of the week with the New England Patriots

00:03hosting the Buffalo Bills. We have to remember that the Pats won the matchup earlier in the

00:09season on Sunday Night Football at Buffalo. The Pats now come in as slight home dogs. This is

00:15going to lock things up for the Pats and the AFC East, Joe, but a Bills win here could catapult

00:22them to having a conversation at least to winning the AFC East once again. Right, so this is a make

00:28it a breaking game for the Bills. They're 3-3 on the road right now. They picked up back-to-back wins

00:33against Pittsburgh and Cincinnati. They're going to need Josh Allen's A-game in this matchup. He

00:38performed okay in the fourth quarter to pull out that victory against Cincinnati, but it was the

00:43defense that was opportunistic. Can they do it again against a very good quarterback in Drake May? Now,

00:49New England has won 10 straight by an average margin of victory. Guys have 11.8 points per game.

00:55They are 5-2 at home. They've won the home games very dominant, 16 points per game. I'm going to

01:02give the edge right now to Josh Allen in this spot. I think he does it through the air. I altered him

01:07to 275-plus and two touchdowns. They're laying one and a half. It's a tough spot, but I'm going to go

01:13against the number. I'm going to lay it with the Bills. I think they win it by a field goal or more.

01:19I absolutely like the Bills as well. I'm on their money line today, so I'm with you on that.

01:23George, expectations for this game, and we can kind of roll this into a little bit of the

01:28MVP conversation. Obviously, Drake May has been battling with Matthew Stafford for a lot of the

01:33season, but a win at home locking up the division title would go a long way for Drake May in

01:40correlation with his MVP odds. I mean, New England's more than likely going to win with division. Win or

01:46lose today, it really won't matter all that much. They hold the second tiebreaker over Buffalo as well.

01:51All right, that's division record. So, I mean, unless you think they're going to lose the

01:54Miami or the Jets, I guess Miami's playing better. Maybe. They could lose the Baltimore next week,

02:00but even if they do that, once again, they need a division loss to really get there for the

02:05Buffalo Bills. And the Bills have to win out, obviously. They still got Philadelphia in a couple

02:09of weeks. So, I don't know if I'm really all that worried about the Patriots not winning the

02:12division. I like Buffalo today as well. I don't love it, mind you. And I'm sure they wouldn't

02:17guarantee it. Small play on it. Nothing great. It's not part of my teasers. Not part of my

02:21parlays because I don't think it's going to lock. Not my opinion anyway. How much more

02:26can we ask Josh Allen to do? Because he's going to have to be Superman again. James Cook

02:30to a degree as well. And I kind of like, you know, you want to play Cook's touches? Kind

02:34of like that today as far as props go because I think he's going to get a bunch. And you

02:37can run on New England more than you can pass. So, it's going to have to either Cook and

02:41Allen show like it is every week here. I'm not going to play any touchdown props in this

02:45game. Dolce K comes to mind here. I don't think this is going to be as high-scoring

02:48a game, at least not for the peripheral players in this contest here. And New England, sort

02:54of like Denver, are they frauds too? I mean, I don't know. I don't think they're as good

02:57as their record is. And guys, would it be surprised anybody? Like I said, I do think

03:01New England wins a division. So, they won't play a playoff game until a divisional round.

03:05It wouldn't shock me if they go, what is their record? 11-2. They go, whatever. 14-3,

03:10yet they're a dog in their first playoff game.
