Buffalo 17 points huh? Aren't we optimistic.

One of the reasons I'm taking Pats -15 and the U46.5 is this score, 31-17, is one of the few scores that could cause me to lose both bets. I see a very small chance (well under 20%) that the Pats win by less than 15 and the total is 47 or higher. You're looking at a 31-17, 35-21 game, and Buffalo's offense just isn't good enough to score that much.

On the flip side, I think there's a decent enough chance that both NE wins by 15 AND the under hits.

2 garbage time tds after the pats are up 31-3 obv. In all honesty my post my mainly a joke, I can't think of a good reason not to take the Pats at this point, just like everyone else. Pats to cover until til they show some signs of slowing down against a decent team sounds good. Not crazy about the under though, NE could have easily scored 50 in their first meeting if I remember correctly, but maybe they let off the gas ever so slightly considering homefield is basically wrapped up (doubt it.)
