For years now, the Buffalo Bills have been searching for a stable presence at quarterback, and it looks like they may have finally found their guy in Josh Allen, but for the better part of the last two decades, it has been rough for the Bills. So rough, as a matter of fact, that the […]

The Buffalo Bills will want to show that they are a legitimate contender by beating the New England Patriots in Week 4.

Bill Belichick insists that he isn’t all that interested in analytics. His justification for that opinion, though, makes it seem as if the New England Patriots’ legendary coach doesn’t exactly have a handle on how teams use advanced statistics in the modern-day NFL. During a press conference at Gillette Stadium on Friday ahead of his […]

The New England Patriots have been the most impressive team in football over the first three games of the season, and it’s not particularly close.

Clearly, the Patriots’ passing game […]

Tom Brady is arguably the best quarterback to ever play in the NFL with his talent and incredible longevity. He’s proven in his 20 years at the NFL that he deserves all of the praise he’s getting from fans and fellow professionals alike. In fact, he’s so good that a former GM in Ron Wold […]

The New England Patriots are preparing to face a Buffalo Bills team that is also undefeated this weekend.
