If the Bills win in New England and finish 9-7, many will say that the game doesn't really count because the Patriots have nothing to play for.
I don't buy that. You think the fans in New England are taking this game lightly?
Anyone who follows the AFC East closely knows that the Patriots NEVER take their foot off the pedal. I think Belichick approaches this game in the same way he normally would.
Tom Brady is starting the game and nobody would be surprised if he plays the entire game today because that's what the Patriots do - hate to lose.
Winning matters.
The Bills have a lot to play for, more than just pride.
If they win, it will be the first time the Bills have won in Gillette Stadium, built in 2002.
It will be the team's first winning record since 2004.
It means a lot to Marrone and Whaley.
A win today will save their jobs.
A bad, embarrassing loss today would matter.
If the Bills get blown out (for the first time this season) it will be an interesting Monday.
