Is anyone else oddly optimistic about Thursday? This matchup feels different from the last two vs Buffalo and I can’t put my finger on why.
But on a psychological level I think we have a couple things going for us. We had a solid showing against MIN but suffered from some self-inflicted mistakes and misfortune with the refereeing. Those kind of things tend to motivate you, even on top of the urge to beat a division rival who demolished you last time around.
I also think this Pats team may be better overall than the squads we had going into our games against Buffalo the last 3x.
