The Patriots defense might have a feast, which will buy Tom Brady and the offense another week to get things together. The Bills will be relying on inexperience throughout the season. E.J. Manuel plays behind as the only rookie quarterback to be drafted in the first round of the 2013 NFL draft will be in charge of running the offense for the Bills. Doug Marrone, his head coach, will also take the sideline for the first time in the NFL after being an assistant coach in Syracuse. 

Danny Amendola will likely be Brady's favorite target in 2013. IT's all about how healthy the slot receiver can remain throughout the 2013 season. Look for the Patriots to run the ball consistently. The Patriots finished fifth with 142.8 rushing yards during the preseason. 

The Bills will rely heavily on their defense as they look for their rookie quarterback to warmup to the league. However, their running game is not too far behind the Patriots. During the regular season, the Bills finished ninth with 132.2 yards per game.
