Rob Ninkovich was right with his prediction last week of the Dolphins upsetting the Patriots in the regular-season finale, but what about this week?
The former Patriots edge rusher is picking New England over Buffalo this Saturday night and he explained why on Wednesday's The Greg Hill Show.
“I think the Patriots are going to win this football game because of the fact of their ability to run the football, mental toughness," he said. "And for some reason, Josh Allen, I just feel like he wants to make a mistake. If you go back to even the second game, he wanted to throw a pick-6, and J.C. Jackson almost caught that football. If he caught the ball, they would have won the football game. I really think there might be a turnover, or a couple interceptions. If you think back to any of the playoff games with Buffalo, there are moments where brain farts just seem to happen to the Buffalo Bills.”
The two teams split their regular-season series with the Patriots winning in Buffalo and the Bills winning at Gillette Stadium.
