HOW THE PATRIOTS CAN HARNESS THE WIN AND AVOID BLOWING THIS GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY

If you haven't heard, it's going to be windy in Buffalo tonight.  While it is guaranteed to play into the play calling on the field, if it ends up changing the course of the outcome, we will need to wait and see.
FIELD POSITION- Field position could be interesting tonight.  Will the wind force a kickoff or two out of bounds giving a team a short field?  Will there be muffed punts?  Does someone chance a field goal they wish they didn't go for?  Does either team go for on 4th down when they normally would have gone for 3?  Although the wind may cause some bad plays on the field tonight, Belichick will not be guilty of having bad strategy.

JOSH ALLEN- The play of Josh Allen will determine the outcome of tonight's game.  While I think Josh is a pretty quality quarterback, I also think Belichick is going to make him have a long night after the stellar game he put up last December.  In their last meeting Josh threw for 320 yards and 4 touchdowns.  Knowing that Josh is going to be in our division for a long time, you know Belichick has been scheming for this game since last winter.  With the defense relatively healthy and coming off a bit of a down game, I'm sure the execution will be impeccable.  â€‹Although Josh has been one of the least sacked quarterbacks this season, the Patriots have averaged 3.7 sacks per game over the last 3 games and 3 sacks per game on the road this season. 

MAC JONES- Does Mac lose the game and look like a rookie, or does he win the game and not get any credit?  I think it will be another one of those 20 pass attempts under 200 yards with minimal errors from #10.  Maybe he'll even get one of those cheap touchdown passes where he pitches it forward a foot.    
RUNNING THE ROCK- Devin Singletary is the leading rusher for the Bills with 459 yards and 2 touchdowns.  Behind him is quarterback Josh Allen with 383 yards and 3 rushing touchdowns.  I wouldn't be surprised if Josh sees that yardage total drop below 383 after Matt Judon gets a hold of him. The Bills average 118 yards on the group per game, while the Patriots average 115.3 yards.  Over the last 3 games the Patriots have averaged 141 yards per game.  Their average on the road this season 130.8 yards.  I have a weird feeling that this may be one of those games where Brandon Bolden has a few big runs.  While  I don't think anyone gets 100 yards by themselves, I'm predicting the ground total will be about 200.
