Patriots at Bills postgame thread

[Comebackkid]

wierd game.    Defense comes out on fire for first quarter and then subsequently goes down hill.   D is great at take aways...not so great when 

they have to just defend without being able to get the takeaways.    got caught with thier pants down a few times.   

 

Im not sold on brady yet....better than Dorsey...but the offense is still flawed.   I know some of that is on the players but coaches have to coach up players and part 

of that is execution, which on offense was pretty dismal.   

 

Bradys play calling was erratic today again as well.    I felt he stuck with cook to much where he wasnt really that effective and whats his name came in was a lot more effective and 4th quarter he was gone and cook was back to being ineffective.  

 

Again we lose possesion on a shotgun pass when qb sneak has been working with out fail.   McDermott may have saved a 2nd shot at Dorseyism.

 

I dont know what it is but it seems the broadcast rarely shows down field anymore when the offense is on the field.   the big play to Kinkaid, why are we not seeing a lot more of that ?..     also it seems like we have one deep post and the bunch formations or just a series of short posts.   

 

If i was brady or the qb coach i would be going through constant timed pass drills, with a blow horn.   get that ball and see where your going with it...NOW.

The thing we have to worry about now is the Chiefs already have nothing to play for. The Raiders loss today means they lost the division and the Chiefs have already clinched and just playing for seeding

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

 

You got that ***** right.  Credit where credit is due.  Fans calling for a loss in 2nd quarter.  Blaming McD for every idiotic play.  FFS.

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

 

 

With the turnovers and location,  along with the pick six in the first Quarter,  any below average QB would have had the game over by the first quarter.

I’m sure with the way this season has gone Cinncy and Pitt will both win today!

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.

MVP with worse numbers on B’more throwing to high school open WRs while our QB and WRs struggle to get 3 ft separation.

I feel like the morning walk home after a night with a fugly skank in college.

I'd say everyone par 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.

 

You can see where Josh has his jacket draped over his left shoulder to keep it warm when he's on the sidelines. The injury has messed with his mechanics... he's been uncharacteristically inaccurate.

 

After Brady made the halftime adjustment, Josh was 8-10 in the second half.

@leh-nerd skin-erd were you at the game today amigo?  

[Danger Mouse]

You know what, I think we’re allowed to enjoy this. It’s been a hard road to get to where we are now. Bad results, bad injuries, bad fixtures … but GET IN

Not how I want to get in but I could see Baltimore's back ups beating the Steelers.

Yeah, but we're now in "I could see it" territory which is not what most fans were expecting going into this week

[Man with No Name]

You can always question who is to blame for the play calling rhythm throughout. there are so many what ifs. so many pieces. But his 3 and 1 call to Murray was atrocious. And the shotgun and the next 3rd and 1 that McD saved with a timeout was even worse. And if he screwed those easy calls up so bad, it's easy to put the blame on him for things that could otherwise be questioned in other directions.

Sorry. An injured left shoulder shouldn’t affect a right handed nfl qb throwing the ball. That’s apologist homer talk

Great win...just win baby!

 

Josh had a not-so-good first half. Then opened the second with a nice pass.

 

Happy New Year! Go Bills!

Well some might think so …

 

Now I get nothing though 

[dakrider]

Josh did not look like a mature seasoned quarterback out there today.  That run-fumble was just nonsense.  Bills just lucked out on the turnovers today, their not going to get a bunch of easy turnovers in the playoffs.  Brady had a poor gameplan as well, its hard to pinpoint anything when the entire offense looks that bad.

OK... We'll see how long it holds up...
