Bills @ Patriots Game thread - 1st half

[Straight Hucklebuck]

Also, there is no pass rush. 
 

McDermott brought #30 on blitz from weak side to try and get anything.

 

So far they’ve made Mac move once.

I'm not sure what happened after that Miami game... Maybe it was the injuries (Tre, Milano, and Jones)?... But this does not look like the same team to me at all.

 

The Jets game was all on Josh... Everyone knows what happened there. And even though they did not look like world beaters vs The Raiders and Washington, you could clearly tell who the better team was. But it seems like something broke when Tre went down. Like the team collectively lost something? Like their edge... I know it's not a scientific way of looking at it. But it's like they are SO fragile all of a sudden. The week after Miami you had the entire NFL talking about the Bills being bullies. They don't look like bullies now... Weak and scrambling for answers... Even the pass rush has tapered off...Just pathetic considering the talent still on this team, injuries or not. 

The Miami defense is just that bad but people are too busy talkin up their offense to notice.

Washington is a terrible defense also  and the raiders aren’t very good either

3rd game they’re giving mad props to opposing Defenses. They need to get a clue - it’s not the Defenses, it’s our crappy offense (again).  
 

If Bills continue the season like this, the only silver lining is Dorsey is gone and/or Beane wakes up and gets another offensive weapon for Allen (not that Allen has been playing phenomenal, but he’s not going).

Cook should stay in red zone. D would not know the play. 

That’s a bills rotation crap.  Gore came in for Singletary, Moss came in for Singletary and now Murray comes in for Cook. Same ***** different day

If that is the case, then call him out. Tell him that the Bills are playing centre or bench him for Kyle for a series to try and make him understand it isn't all about him.

 

I agree with this.

Jet lag after 2 weeks? Not likely. I’ve travelled to Europe many times including this past summer. And I live about west so Jet lag is worse. It never lasts more than a few days max 1 week!

check your sarcasm detector settings.  I also don't really think injuries on defense are hampering the offense.

Bills need to play the whole second half like there is 2 mins left,  some urgency is needed.  I see a team just playing slow 

How dare you think of something different 

[RG Murdock]

This is what "Humble" gets you!!! A lose here and the playoff's are a pipe dream. This is worse than last week.

OK.....new strategy for the 2nd half to try.  Hurry up offense and let Allen call his own plays.  Just need to try something new.  It can't get much worse than 3 points in the first half even if it fails.  Just need to try and spark something.

Been saying for a few weeks, I have no idea why they never use the no huddle anymore

I'm a pretty sensitive guy, but it'd be nice if the team looked like they cared on O/ST. The defense is doing what they can with all the injuries. But McD doesn't hold anyone accountable ever.

You do realize NE has probably the worst O in the NFL right? They should be dominating the very weak Pats O line

The hook on that kick was unreal. Like it hit a hurricane wind 

Reminded me of Tuckers misses vs us in 2020 playoff game.

Josh Allen is 3/9 for 17 yards when targeting WRs. Bass with a wind assisted shank. I see the wind speeds are 15mph coming from the west. Anyone else think this is a factor? 

Always some add wind to jet lag and every other coach and player that’s not the QB

[Utah John]

Watching the Giants-Commanders game. The Giants kicker had a FG attempt go sideways to the right, just like Bass's did.  Weird things happening today.

[Chaos]

Is the crap special teams play, Dorsey or Allen's fault?

Does nobody here think the Bills are just playing Vanilla to conceal their playback footage from better teams? They obviously will win. 

 

No.  They are just playing like *****.  A win isn't a given at this point.

I agree with this. 

It kind of is all about him though. This team isn’t going to respond to Kyle Allen…

Garrett wrecking the Colts

The first drive has to be a scoring one for the Bills.

Thinking that NYG win was pretty lucky, the Bills are broken.
