00:00Now, we talk about some of the best teams here overall in the NFC and meld them with

00:07the AFC.

00:08Yesterday, what we thought also should have been a blowout scenario.

00:11It was the Buffalo Bills taking on the New England Patriots.

00:14That game wound up, how about this guys, 24 to 21 with the Buffalo Bills improving to

00:20a perfect 7-0 at home, but a very game New England Patriots team drops to 3-12 on the

00:25season.

00:26Last May, 22 of 36 for 261, two touchdowns and an interception, a bad interception late

00:32in that game in the end zone, but he's a rookie.

00:34He's going to make those mistakes.

00:36Romandre Stevenson helped them out, 12 carries, 60 yards and a touchdown on the ground.

00:40Keyshawn Butte, how about this, five catches for 99 yards, 95 yards, excuse me, and an

00:44early touchdown.

00:45They were in control of this game.

00:46They were up double digits, a two-score lead, but didn't you know that the Buffalo Bills

00:51would be coming back in this game?

00:52And also, look at the byline here.

00:55And Josh Allen, who is going to be the MVP of the NFL, 16 of 29 for 154 yards, one touchdown

01:02and one interception, unheard of over the past couple weeks for Josh Allen, a QBR rating

01:08of 28.7.

01:10And also the time that we're hearing from the press, you know what?

01:13Guess who had an injury to his hand and a broken hand that he's fighting through?

01:18Non-throwing hand, that's Josh Allen.

01:20But James Cook certainly was cooking yesterday.

01:23Only 11 carries needed to get the century mark and a touchdown, which included early

01:27on to get them back into the football game, a 46-yard touchdown, Shawn.

01:31And also the leading pass catcher on that team, James Cook, three for 26 and a touchdown.

01:36So he was the main ingredient on the Buffalo Bills, which they're going to have to lean

01:39on more of that running game to help out Josh Allen.

01:42You could say two things about this.

01:43The Buffalo Bills were favored by over 14 points in this game, closing at most outlets

01:47here, including the FanDuel Sportsbook at 14.5.

01:50They only won by three, but it's still a victory as you're trying for that outside

01:54chance at the number one overall seed here in the AFC, which would put you in a better

01:58spot at home to play teams possibly like the Baltimore Ravens and or the Kansas City Chiefs,

02:04which you had the Kansas City Chiefs in your own building, Lace, you're in the playoffs

02:08and weren't able to get that victory.

02:09We're not sweating that because there are no style points.

02:12Like go back a couple of years in college football, you got to be bad teams by a lot

02:15or the team, the system is going to downgrade you, whether you own by one or 15 points to

02:20get the cover for the Buffalo Bills yesterday.

02:22They only cared about picking up the victory, which looks like it was in doubt right away

02:25in the second quarter as they were down two touchdowns.
