Patriots at Bills postgame thread

[OldNMBillsFan]

JA did everything possible to loose this game. McD's Defense won this game.

They won, that’s nice. Not going far in the playoffs that’s for sure!

Anyone want to help me bully this guy

I even thought that were running him too much earlier in the game too. The sneaks are fine, but no reason to have Pats teeing off on JA.

 

Once again, it was BAD coaching by McD and his staff.

I can’t believe how much I despise a Bills coach with his record.-

As against the Chargers last week I was completely expecting an ugly win.

 

As @nucci would put it, today was the Patriots' Super Bowl.

Be fair… He got the first down at the end to ice it…

Perfect Sunday afternoon results wise. Bills win, Miami loses (and had several more guys go down). 

 

But man, this offense is broken. Allen is a bit of a mess the last two weeks.

 

Just need to hope things start clicking vs Miami and in the playoffs.

 

Dolphins are absolutely decimated with injuries. Huge opportunity next week. 

 

It's been nice to see Brady diversify the offense but I'm not sold on him yet.

 

But today wasn't Brady's fault.  It was Josh's.  

 

The OL allowed some pressure and receivers dropped some balls.  The offensive woes weren't all on Josh.  But he was badly off today.

Wait what? I was told I was stupid for suggesting the Bills could still win the Division. 27 pages of ridicule followed. Whats going on did I enter the mult-verse???????

Emotional and negative idiots.

Huge game in Miami next week for the AFCE division and #2 seed. Doesn’t seem possible but win next week and they are in prime position.

 

D played strong. Rasul had a game. Still concerned DL not getting home without blitzing.

 

Sam Martin was a huge difference in punting.

 

Offensively, lots of concerns. Now that coaches have more film on Brady’s playcalling, we’ll see if he can adjust. Bill schooled him today.

 

Still too many lateral throws for my liking. Designing routes with no easy releases is concerning. Not using Josh on 3rd and short and then again was not going to do it on 3rd and short until McDermott burnt a TO to override the call. Only one offensive scoring drive that wasn’t from a TO. Overall not sure what the offense game plan was today. Also far too many drops. Josh looked confused the entire first half.

 

NE played tough defensively but this game should have never been this close.

 

Hopefully everyone is healthy for next week.

 

LETS GO BUFFALO!

‘Everything possible’ is a stretch haha not a good game though for sure.  He could’ve hit that deep shot to diggs and redeemed himself

Tua also with a left shoulder and Chubb may have suffered a bad knee injury in garbage time of the blowout. 

I never root for an injury. It is the game and you have to go with who is healthy. Losing key personnel does suck. We know all about it.

 

I shed zero tears for them . I want to squish em so badly next week. It can't get here soon enough!

[Niagara Dude]

Chubb for the Miami was charted off the field with non contact knee injury and Tua left the game with injured left throwing shoulder

I've commented on how Josh's left shoulder injury has affected his mechanics and his throwing. It's pretty obvious.

 

Brady made a nice second half adjustment by going to a horizontal passing game with an emphasis on more stationary targets, particularly over the middle.

 

Josh was more effective after that change.

First half I think he had more OL excuses than the second.  Looked like we made some nice oline adjustments in the second half and the opportunities were there

I'd say everyone bar Kincaid and Shakir can take some if the blame for the mess on offense today. Josh was better in th second half than the first but something isn't right with him.

Bills WRs really struggle to get open man on man. 

As I've been saying, the lack of speed on O continues to be a killer.  First pick has to be a WR burner, and another in the third or fourth rd.

Hopefully they charted a course for the locker room

Imagine we'd already be in first place in the division if the Cowboys hadn't ***** all over themselves last week.

We’d be in first place if we took care of business against NYJ, NE and Denver!

[Best Williams Available]

Since Knox came back they’ve won but the O has been abysmal. I hate 12 personnel and it’s holding this team back, again.

No Way do I want the Bills to squeak into the playoffs needing help. Win and IN next week is Perfection.
