The Bills haven\u2019t beaten New England in over five years, piling up a 0-10 SU record and a 3-7 ATS streak against the Pats. <!--more--><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/handicappers\/\"><strong>CLICK HERE FOR THE BEST NFL CAPPERS PICKS FOR ALL THE WEEK 15 ACTION! &#8212;&#8211;&gt;<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>With Tom Brady and Randy Moss being scrutinized by the Panthers last week, revenge will be key. Yet the Patriots bandwagon is worried that this game has \u201cdisaster\u201d written all over it.<\/p>\n<p>The main reason your Boston friends will be so pessimistic is because of the way things have been going in New England\u2026or rather for sports in New England. The Colts are perfect and they decimated the Patriots on Sunday Night Football betting with a brutal \u201c4 th and 2\u201d call by Uncle Bill. The Lakers and the Yankees both won championships this year and the Bruins are a shadow of themselves yet again. It\u2019s one thing to see one of your main rivals doing well, but it\u2019s entirely demoralizing when three of your arch-rivals are enjoying success. New England fans love hanging themselves by a noose, but I\u2019m not so sure what they\u2019re concerned about.<\/p>\n<p>The Patriots have a legitimate chance of going 11-5 SU in an ugly season. Of course most of the concerns surround the fact that the Patriots are in authoritative disarray right now with key players being benched (Adalius Thomas) and their star player, Randy Moss, being blamed for taking off plays.<\/p>\n<p>It also doesn\u2019t help matters that New England is 2-4 ATS in their last 6 games and 2-4 ATS in their last 6 road games as well. A major part of the scare in New England was the telling Monday Night Football matchup between these two, where New England rallied in the fourth to survive 25-24 after a fumble by the Bills. [soliloquy id=&#8221;82219&#8243;] The Patriots are also just 2-3 SU in their last 5 games. If you\u2019re being tricked in to doubting the Patriots by your buddies who support them, then I\u2019ve got news for you \u2013 you\u2019re an idiot.<br \/>\n<strong><br \/>\nNew England Patriots (8-5) vs. Buffalo Bills (5-8)<br \/>\nSunday, December 20 th &#8212; Ralph Wilson Stadium, Buffalo &#8212; 1:00pm EST<br \/>\nNFL Betting Line: New England -7 (40.5)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Bills are simply brutal and there\u2019s no reason to get excited about a 16-10 win over a sputtering Chiefs team. Orchard Park is not even friendly to its home team, and the Bills have gone just 2-9 SU\/ATS in their last 11 home games. Cue an 0-5 SU\/ATS record when hosting the Patriots and you have a recipe for a blowout win by the Patriots. The other reason this is going to be difficult for the Bills is because of Terrell Owens.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not that I\u2019m scared of Owens blowing up for a huge game in the freezing weather. It\u2019s more that Owens, for some reason, always brings out the best in Randy Moss by merely existing. The two have exchanged chops in the past and this game will be no different, with the slight exception that both are going to keep their mouths shut leading up to the game. With Moss getting blasted by the media, the fans and critics, he\u2019s about to have a huge bounce back game as the Patriots throw it in cruise control and crush the Bills.
