Last Guy on the Bench Posted September 29, 2019 Posted September 29, 2019 Unreal. The offense tosses up four interceptions, and somehow the defense holds the Pats to 224 yards! (We had 375.) Brady averaged 3.85 yards/attempt on 39 passes!!!!!! It's a brutal loss in some ways, given that we outgained them by 150 yards. And our offense still has a long way to go (more experience individually and together, a few new players down the road). But if the Bills keep playing defense like that we are going to win a truckload of games, even with a hot and cold, mistake-prone offense. It was a joy to watch them. 14 2 3
DollaBills Posted September 29, 2019 Posted September 29, 2019 Im frustrated that the offense was atrociously bad, but the defense will keep them in any game
BarleyNY Posted September 29, 2019 Posted September 29, 2019 Defense was stellar. Offense (Allen mostly) and specials (punt block for TD) let the team down. That said, a true #1 WR would be huge for this team. 1
Seasons1992 Posted September 29, 2019 Posted September 29, 2019 Fun game. Two playoff-caliber D's showcased their wares today. No worries on the outcome, outside of two things: 1. The overall health of Josh. 2. The receivers. 1
Kelly the Dog Posted September 29, 2019 Posted September 29, 2019 Overall an extraordinary game. The one TD drive was a perfect pass and great catch against excellent coverage. They were stellar. 2
Rocket94 Posted September 29, 2019 Posted September 29, 2019 What an impressive game for the defense. Every man should be given a game ball. These guys opened my eyes, and played with the ferocity of an alley fight. 2
BaaadThingsMan Posted September 29, 2019 Posted September 29, 2019 Kudos and Big Congrats to the defense. They completely held NE in check all game long. They deserved a better fate!

They just played against a defense that is elite. The turnovers by Allen were killer, but the offense played well. They had nearly 400 yards of offense and were 2 yards away from taking the lead in the 4th quarter. This offense is going to get better. It is basically 10 new players that will get better as they gel. 5
atlbillsfan1975 Posted September 29, 2019 Posted September 29, 2019 (edited) Belichick and Brady’s days numbered. Brady showed his age a lot today. He can float one in there, so could Fitz. Brady doesn’t have the same control when he has to put zip on it. That Pats team isn’t breaking the Bills four Super Bowl record. The Bills have a Super Bowl caliber D. The offense will get there.

Real McClappy Posted September 29, 2019 Posted September 29, 2019 I'm sure even with the win BB and the league has taken note. Now, just score 21 pts a game on offense and we are golden. 1
ComradeKayAdams Posted September 29, 2019 Posted September 29, 2019 Can you imagine what this defense will be like next season with an elite free agent pass rusher?
GreggTX Posted September 29, 2019 Posted September 29, 2019 I LOVE it when the Bills play great defense. Our offense still needs work, but give credit where credit is due. That Patriots D was as good as advertised.
Big Blitz Posted September 29, 2019 Posted September 29, 2019 We're going to be just fine folks. We showed the whole country we can play with and beat anybody. Very few Ds as good as New England's. 3
Artem Lipatov Posted September 29, 2019 Posted September 29, 2019 Before the game I was afraid of Pats (Espescially after destroying Steelers in week 1). Now I think our Defence is Scary. They hold us in the game against best team in the league after 3 INTs and TD allowed by punt team. After competitive game vs Patriots we are ready to compete vs any playooff team in NFL. 1 1

They were horrific last season, so it's a big upgrade, but there is no elite talent on the OL or WR corps yet. 2

Let's add LT, big WR and CB through FA or the draft and another year of experience to reduce mistakes. Lo will probably retire too so we'll need to replace him.

That play was just awful - college football stuff. 3
