Another Thursday, another round of bold predictions for the upcoming New England Patriots game.

Here they are, your Week 4 bold predictions between the Patriots and Bills this Sunday:

5. Chris Hogan will go off

Against his former cornerback teammates Stephon Gilmore and Ronald Darby, Chris Hogan will have himself a game. Hogan will blow his total stats through three games (eight receptions, 122 yards, touchdown) out of the water by accumulating 130 yards and two scores on nine receptions. He will be the focal point of the offense against the Bills.

Why Hogan? Well, it is very much a Bill Belichick thing to do, to make one of your former players burn you. The Patriots love to pluck former Bills and place them into roles against Buffalo, like they did with Scott Chandler last season. Unlike Chandler, however, Hogan has and will actually produce for the Patriots in 2016.

On a day in which the Bills will hold Martellus Bennett to no catches (more on that later), Hogan will be the Patriots’ savior in the aerial attack.

Next: 4. Taylor will be Bills’ leading rusher
