"The most important thing in the playoffs is to play well."
He's an intelligent guy but it's remarkable how much he talks like a kindergartner.
Its likes he goes out of his way to avoid substantive, interesting answers and just says the very most obvious, basic thing possible.
Bingo! It's all intentional.

I rather not listen to him and I am a pats fan. Plus he honestly is the same way whether he wins or loses in press conferences so there is no difference. The only time he has been different is during a SB win or when he is being interviewed for NFL films. Other than that. it's basically the same tone in regular season wins or loses.

overall I say the FA on O and D were good. Bourne is a solid 2 WR, Henry is a beast in the red zone and Macs security blanket, Brown when healthy is a top RT. (Add in Meyers and it’s a fun group missing that one dynamic player make the difference. IMO) Judon was worth every penny on D, and Baremore I think will be special that was drafted.
They benched Smith for awhile because he was destroying Jones confidence with BAD drops. He had a couple that went threw his hands for picks, the worst one is when he literally bopped it up in the air and looked like he handed it to the CB.
they been playing him more lately but his hands are still like stone, and add in Harry who can’t get open or run the right route (I have never seen a vet get chewed out by a rookie before.. but Mac chewed out Harry yesterday.)
Yea, BB offensive philosophy has always been to have a two TE set. He loved it when he had Gronk n Hernandez and you can see how that created problems. He has always wanted to duplicate that. He has never been big on getting a top wide out at that position. The Moss, ABs, Ochos...were the exception given who was at QB at the time.
Sure would like him to change that thought process though...(cool w the 2 TE set, just want a big play out wide as well)

Ok from the enemy side trying be rational:
Bills:
Allen — just needs be the Allen of this year and last year. As long as he doesn’t struggle with accuracy (which he has a few times this year) the Bills should roll on the Pats D
RUN — If he does struggle, just run the football. The Pats literally just gave up almost 200 yards to the 31st rank rushing O.
Pats
Defense — has to step up big time! No more being gashed on obvious run downs and definitely need play better in the secondary. (I expect Bryant to be picked on again all day)
Offense — Run Harris and Stevenson a lot but also do PA Passes on 1st or 2nd and short. They can’t be predictable.
all and all the Bills should win and it would take a clunker performance by them for the Pats to steal a victory. This is exactly the record I expected for my Pats and I wish they were facing Ann inexperienced Cincy team that could get caught flat footed.
My exact thought. Honestly believe the Pats have no business winning this game. This is their ceiling just getting to the playoffs. Didn't expect them to win a playoff game. Maybe would of had a chance against cincy.

I do remember him yes, he played the same season as the great Scott Zolak who went on to pump his chest out as the color analyst for Pats radio.
You might be a lifelong fan, you might not. What I do know is that back then no one gave a ***** about the Pats and I never met people who claimed to be fans. If you look at the Pats attendances back in the early 90s when they sucked, they hovered around 30 thousand, 35 thousand, even for early season games. Some weeks it went down to 20-25 thousand.
During the drought the Bills averaged 71 thousand fans (at a time when there were so many other ways to catch the game). The fact is a huge percentage of Pats fans are bandwagon jumpers. That's to be expected but I always laugh at their entitled attitude. The real longtime fans won't act like that because they've experienced the hard times. I'm looking forward to seeing how many stick around when Belichick has gone and they spend a couple of years in the AFC East basement
Scott Zolak is acting like a homer, so Bills do not have radio host and their own color analyst on their own local radio doing the same thing? I know the "thing" to say is the patriots have a bunch of bandwagon fans. Some of that statement is true. Most sports teams who win will have "bandwagon" fans. That is the nature of things in sports, but what completely is going to get buried just to push the agenda because they won so much is, there is a great number of loyal patriots fans. Back during Hugh Millen, "Scott Zolak" era the team was going to moved to Connecitcut. It was the fans that helped fight to keep the patriots where they are at. I mean there is also regional, generational difference between fans of buffalo, New York to fans in Boston too. Bigger region more to do and more teams to support in Boston to just focus solely on one sport (that doesn't mean there are no die hard fans out there), for some patriots fans they were born in the '00, all they know is winning so some will act entitled as the internet and twitter has taken over that is what you are going to see. Obviously buffalo as of now does not have the same fortunate but.....plenty of buffalo fans act entitle now. Crap chief fans act the same way "entitled" and they were definitely on the other side talking about patriots fans.
It generally is the same thing all over, a lot of fans just won't allow it to be seen that way.

If our coach won 6 Super Bowls I would give him the benefit of the doubt for a few down seasons.
See i think some here may not know. Since NE is a bigger media outlet than buffalo. NE has plenty of radio host, and writers who take the contrary approach to their journalism. As this comes off as "ungrateful" New Englanders. What you are reading is someone taken "the devils advocate" approach, "contrary" approach, looking at it from another point of view. That newspaper, the Global does that a lot, but takes the "fluff" approach with the redsox because they are owned by the redsox.

I'm sure you're one of the super loyal Pats fans
If you are being sarcastic, yes I am. I been rooting for them since Hugh Millen was their QB. If you do not know who that is, then that should also answer you question. He was the QB before Bledsoe and Parcells got there. He was their QB while some of their games weren't being broadcast locally.

The guys on WGR said it best the other day - the Pats fans and media think they're the biggest character in the NFL movie and just assumed they'd dominate for another 20 years after Jones had a couple good games.
They need to realize that they're just another team now and will have good seasons and terrible seasons like everyone else. Like spoiled children who have never been told "no" they can't handle not being the best year in, year out. I'm interested to see how many of their fans stick around once they have a few losing seasons in a row. I think a lot of them will jump ship to the the Chiefs or whoever
Sounds like your post and local radio station is generalizing alot here.

They did not have a good defense last year, their record indicated that and by the time their season was over they were so badly decimated with injuries. They were using safeties as LBs.
I know it's better to only pick out those certain posts and articles about the Patriots.
But overall the team is doing just fine after just two years..
Bills should have the more talented roster. They were building it while the Patriots still had Brady.
Just like when the pats were on top. The division should be the Bills until someone beats them out.

"And, of course, there was the now-ridiculous-sounding idea that the loss had broken the Bills.
Looking at it now, that was probably always ridiculous, given that the Bills have been really good in four of five years under McDermott and Beane, and the one downturn came with Josh Allen as a rookie in 2018, which was also the year the team ripped off financial Band-Aids put on by the previous regime to keep the roster together. With that track record, there’s real proof that these Bills have staying power."
You think??
It takes being proven wrong for the media to magically get a sense of the bigger picture.
We need to have one big intervention meeting in order to rid the media of its addiction to weekly hot takes.
Fans do the same thing though, the difference is. That's the media's job. They have to create stories.

Probably but you have to agree there will be a lot of pressure on Jones to perform after 3 "he sure looks like a rookie" games in a row.
Do you think he will be too fragile now to not pull off a win against Jacksonville? i mean anyone who is wiling to look at him objectively or any rookie. Will know they are going to look bad at times, no rookie especially at the QB position always come up smelling like roses. Things do change when defensives start to game plan for your weakness, we knew it was coming. I like to believe he is with a good coaching staff that will not allow him to get off course and continue to do his job.

Trap games don't exist. I mention this fact somewhere on the board every week.
People love to keep talking about them though, kind of like Big Foot.
I think they do, I think teams could underestimate their next opp. Or focus too much on one opp. and not the other. But I do not see the Bills losing to falcons and i do not see the pats losing to the jags......but sh*t it will be interesting if anyone of the two do.

I meant "to the falcons."

Just now, ColoradoBills said:
Both important games.
I agree. I think both teams win.

Don't get "trapped" by the Jags this Sunday or things could get tough!
and if they don't get "trapped". Be careful not to allow a let down by the falcons this week.

Here is the full statement...lets try this again why dont we. Does the lost suck, yea all loses do...but again given what i expect from this season
and thinking they were going to split with the bills anyways. This lost is not as bothersome....is that better for you??
29 minutes ago, Scott7975 said:Here is the context...
Me: Im sure you feel a sting losing to a division opponent today.
You: No I don't treat games like life and death
Paraphrased of course but what more context is there? I mean seriously... your team was on the upswing ready to take the division and then lost it. You're telling me you don't care at all. Im calling you a casual fan if that's true. No real Pats fan didn't feel a sting today.

I’m responding to your posts directly to me. Not others. Worst of luck, hope the Pats lose both games and miss the playoffs. They are not as good as their record suggests.
I am still waiting for you to show me where i directly said the bills will lose this game? They split with them..cool with me.
Yea I am sure you hope they never win another game, I expect that.

So feeling a sting from a division loss is comparable to life and death? LOL.
Now we are going to act like we don't know how to use context when making a statement or point, got it!

I have no idea how you talk with others, just how you responded to me. You obviously thought this was going to be a Pats win.
Don’t minimize the importance of this game, Buffalo going into a Belicheck led team down 2 very good wide receivers and a shuffled line and still dominating (could have been worse).
Well you continue to be wrong about my posts so why not now put words in my mouth...
I think I recognize the bills winning the game. But YOU'RE reaction to it...again seeking a post of mine like I said they were going to lose...
And both teams seem to be heading into the playoffs so..again I am not bothered by this game.

If a division loss didn't sting you at all then you are a pretty casual fan that simply doesn't give much of a crap about football.
Nope you are dead wrong and need to know no two fans act a like.
I don't get crazy with sports it's not life or death. Always keep it in perspective And I been a Patriots fans since Hugh Millen was their QB.

No that’s actually a badge of honor ghost but patriot fans seeing if they can get out of the parking lot early abandoning their team today I don’t think you would call that a badge of honor I think he would call that Fairweather fans
Ok. If you say so!
I did like seeing wrestlers(the Dudleys ) put each other thru tables though. That's fun to watch.

He is actually not that bad of a GM, yes he has had some misses ( some bad misses too) but nobody is perfect in getting their drafts correct and there are teams who end up getting good draft picks because they have sucked for so long. His philosophy is give the other team no bulletin board material at all cost. So that is why he says very little at press conferences. His job is secured yes, sometimes to a fault (drafting) but i think there are people trying to force his hands a little when it comes to drafting certain position, I think. at least there should be more of it.
