FIELD POSITION-
  • Don't allow CJ Spiller to return any kickoffs by kicking the ball through the end zone every time. 
  • Weather should make this easy as there will be very little wind. 
  • Spiller has taken one to the house and averages 35.9 yards per return. 
  • If you take out the 102 yard touchdown run, he still averages 24.8 yards per return. 
  • Kick it through the end zone and don't give him any chances. 

DON'T NEGLECT THE RUN-
  • It is the Patriots' strength
  • It opens up the passing game
  • Buffalo's defense is overrated
More details here.
GET FIRST DOWNS-
  • The Patriots were leading the league in most 3 and outs heading into last week and seemed to take care of business last week, this needs to continue.
  • The Bills have held their opponents to 31.8 efficiency on 3rd down conversions (2nd best in league).
  • Patriots need to avoid 3 and outs to give defense a rest and keep Buffalo fans out of the game.

AVOID DUMB PENALTIES-
  • No penalties pre-snap.
  • No penalties after the whistle.
  • No offensive holding plays when the play is going the other direction (unless of course you are stopping an obvious sack).
LET BRADY MANAGE THE OFFENSE-
  • Start with play calls that the active players can be effective with (this includes the offensive line).
  • Don't try to outsmart the Bills' defense.
  • If we win the coin toss, take the ball and give the team the opportunity to play ahead.
