Yeah, they're pissed off because they just lost a game they really wanted.

Allen pees his pants throws an air ball

 

While we're on the subject of press conferences Allen said in his press conference that the wind took that last pass. Also the defender covering Beasley made a smart play and abandoned his coverage to tip the ball. I'm not going to lay the blame on Allen for that one. I'm going to blame the offensive structure and personnel that put us in an extremely low percentage 4th and 14 situation for the game.

Sullivan is a bad journalist because he inserts himself into the story. He just asked McDermott "are you embarrassed that the Pats only passed the ball three times and won?" That's not a proper press conference question. The question is the answer.

I’m so glad we have tough journalist like Sully. Our coaches and players deserved every bit of that.

I have a hard time putting this on the defense.  They allowed only 14 points. Yeah, yeah, rushing yards. But 14 points is the bottom line. They mostly did their job.

 

14 pts is a lot in a game where the conditions make it really hard to score. They allowed over 200 rushing yards and allowed the pats to move the ball and keep the Bills offense off of the field when we had the wind

[DocLawless]

This almost reminds me of a political debate in todays age. Two different groups of people who don't see how the other could think a certain way. I am NOT a fan of sully by any means, and the question was never going to get a good response, nor was it very professional. However, many Bills fans probably feel the same way tonight. I think the question was fair to be honest. Of course you can hide behind the score and say you only gave up 14 points, but if you watched the game you know that run defense was pathetic. In fact, even if you didnt watch the game, you should know it was pathetic based on the stat line. In those conditions, you have to stop the run and force a team to pass, and that never happened. Pathetic showing despite how many points were given up.

This.  All the reporters, not just Sullivan, were asking hard-hitting questions in the pressers.  It’s time for that.  The team has underperformed expectations and repeatedly deflected issues with cliche answers throughout the entire season.

Yeah, it's the culture and had nothing at all to do with a smarmy leech insulting them while hiding behind a microphone. 

Fine, but are they above a question that insinuates insult? They are paid quite a bit to do a job in which they failed this evening. Is that not fair to say?

He's supposed to be a reporter not a Bills fan.

And would you walk up to those guys right after that game and tell them they should be embarrassed?

Would you do it from a distance while hiding behind something?

It was utterly pathetic.

Paying people doesn't confer some right to insult them from a safe distance.

No.  The Bills and Pats both had 10 possessions.  The Bills had more offensive snaps.  The Bills defense forced 6 punts.  The Bills defense gave up 4 drives of 25 yards or more, resulting in 1 TD and 2 FG.  They had multiple 3 and out drives.  The offense is the problem.

Yea for as well as the Patriots were running the ball they didn’t score a whole lot of points… Bills offense ***** the bed and their pants again…. I still can’t stand the hard count try to draw them off sides and then Allen pees his pants throws an air ball and wastes a down looking for the Offside flag… just shows a complete lack of confidence in themselves. 

Sullivan’s a dick… but somethings up in the locker room JMO. 

To be fair the last few times have been clear Offside imo

You're right, he comes off as a bitter fan like I would, and I did say I didn't think it was professionally worded, but he is technically allowed to ask whatever he wants. I think Hyde would be less frustrated if he didn't think Sully was right IMO

Our offense looked worse with the wind to be honest lol…we had outrageous field position quite a few times with the wind and bungled it

There's 20 different ways to ask that question and he chose the most inflammatory one in order to make himself part of the story.

That's what douchebags do.

They let the Navy offense run all over them. What?

I was thinking the Broncos Tebow offense. But with a QB who can't run. So basically they ran for 222 yards with NE playing 10 against our 11 since Mac Jones just passed the baton from the Center to a nondescript RB.

It's not like Sullivan asked a hard hitting question about football. Imagine if Hyde's response was "aren't you embarrassed that you write for the Niagara Gazette?"

[uticaclub]

It was a fair question given the game

[ExiledInIllinois]

They stopped the run.  Just couldn't stop the one that scored 8.

 

+6 +2

+3

+3

14 points.  

 

Not a bad D.

I don’t know why they are so mad at the question. Bill Belichick just called them embarrassing for 60 minutes by running the same play over and over daring them to stop the run. 
 

They should be ***** embarrassed.

They gave up 14 measly points.

 

Tell me how it was their fault that the offense could only score 3 points when inside of the red zone 3 different times and 10 points being inside of Patriots territory 6 different times?

 

For giving up so many rushing yards the Patriots were only in Buffalo territory 3 times all game.

And probably why they are so mad.  They ran every play and only scored 6 then a 2pt. conversion on a run! 

 

Bills weren't getting them to pass no matter what.

They took the bait and gave that hack the exact reaction he was hoping for
