EVER HEAR the one about the guy who comes home from work to find the final score of the Monday Night Football game and parts of a male sex organ spray-painted on his lawn? It's a heck of a yarn: September 2009, first week of the season, Bills are 13 1/2-point dogs in Foxborough against a Patriots team they haven't beaten in their last 11 tries.
The whole nation knows what's coming. In their last five meetings, New England has outscored Buffalo, 155-33. The last time the two teams met, the Patriots started Matt Cassel and attempted just eight passes against 47 runs in a meaningless 13-0 victory in Week 17.
