Week 16 already? It’s that late-in-the-season time of year again - watching NFL games on Saturday AND Sunday with the Christmas tree up, the house decorated and the festive food kicked up a few notches. It’s football in December: The Patriots have steamrolled their way to the playoffs as usual, finish up with a couple of easy division games and hold firm atop the rankings at ... 6th place? What? Ho. Ho. Ho.
Welcome to the 2019 Patriots. No cruise-control for this team. On Saturday the Patriots face the hungry 10-4 Bills, who can almost taste the post-game locker room champaign spray of an AFC East division title.
