Yeah those temps and a rookie QB and I see Bellichick running, running, and running some more. It makes sense for Pats to try to shorten game and minimize possessions. However, like you alluded to, if Bills get up early he might be forced to throw more than he wants to.
I think this game sets up well for the Bengals today...I read a stat somewhere that Carr does not do well in cold weather. That and the short week for them after the dramatic Sunday night game, should give the Bengals a big edge in that game.
31 years...That was Ickey Woods and the Ickey Shuffle!
