BillsBeat - December 9, 2002

Costly flags fly in Foxboro

‘The Pats had three touchdowns taken off the board because of penalties in their 27-17 win over Buffalo yesterday at Gillette Stadium.’

Boston Herald | Dec 9, 2002

Belichick's game plan suffocates former QB

‘And right now, Belichick is a size-12 boot, Bledsoe an ant.’

Metro West Daily News | Dec 9, 2002

Warm welcome not enough for Bledsoe win

‘He may have shipped Bledsoe off to Buffalo, but Belichick has kept him in his back pocket all along.’

Metro West Daily News | Dec 9, 2002

CB Smith strips Bills of victory

‘Smith said he partially jarred the ball loose from Price in the first quarter, so “I figured if he gets his hands on it again, if I was in position to tackle him, to try it again. It turned the game around totally. Turnovers were a big difference today.”‘

Metro West Daily News | Dec 9, 2002

Executing the same game plan

‘Yesterday, in his first visit to Foxboro as a member of the Buffalo Bills, former franchise quarterback Drew Bledsoe fell flat. He threw interceptions early. He threw them late. He threw four altogether and did nothing to diminish the perception earned in New England of being a quarterback that gags when stakes are raised and expectations peak.’

Providence Journal | Dec 9, 2002

Right from the start, Bledsoe was finished

‘While he completed 32 passes and threw for two touchdowns, Bledsoe’s errant tosses were the story of the day. He flipped four interceptions, one coming at the Pats’ 1-yard line and two others ending any hope of a fourth-quarter rally.’

Providence Journal | Dec 9, 2002

An early Christmas for Seymour

‘”I wanted to make a play on it, but I didn’t think the ball was going to come down,” said Seymour of his reaction to seeing the ball headed his way. “But I got it. I’ve been hanging around the receivers,” he said with a grin.’

Providence Journal | Dec 9, 2002

Jones's end-zone interception was scripted

‘The play that changed the game for good, the end-zone interception by Tebucky Jones in the second quarter, was just like they drew it up.’

Providence Journal | Dec 9, 2002

Brady misses chance to show off his footwork

‘Brady misfired a few times in the first half, but still wound up completing 11-of-16 passes for 161 yards and a pair of touchdowns.’

Providence Journal | Dec 9, 2002

Bledsoe trade keeps paying off for Pats, fans

‘It was a dumb throw. Which made the Patriots look smart.’

Providence Journal | Dec 9, 2002

Big bruiser Smith delivering for Pats

‘This was the first time in four games against his former team that Smith hasn’t topped 100 yards. But he still knows he made his carries count.’

Providence Journal | Dec 9, 2002

Two-minute drill

‘The Patriots picked off four Drew Bledsoe passes but the biggest turnover they forced was the fumble by Peerless Price early in the fourth quarter, when the Bills had already scored twice and were embarking on their third drive of the second half. The Pats recovered on the Buffalo 28, and their subsequent touchdown put them back in charge at 27-10.’

Providence Journal | Dec 9, 2002

Can't Go Home Again

‘Bledsoe? He was alone to stew in his frustration, and maybe even a bit of self-doubt, after throwing four interceptions, three of them into the jagged teeth of a Patriots defense that repeatedly shredded his overeager bid to rescue his team from a 17-0 second-quarter deficit. Just the way coach Bill Belichick planned it when he traded Bledsoe to the Bills in April for a No.1 draft choice.’

Hartford Courant | Dec 9, 2002

Interception Marks Seymour's Surge

‘Seymour caught the deflection on the Bills 15, and was tackled at the 9. Two plays later, the Patriots scored to take a 17-0 lead on their way to a 27-17 victory over Bledsoe’s Bills.’

Hartford Courant | Dec 9, 2002

He's Oh, So Predictable

‘”Every game I’ve ever played, I’ve taken personally,” Bledsoe said. “And this one, more than most. The turnovers I had fall heavily on my shoulders.” We’ve heard that one before, and the solace for Patriots fans is to be found in two words. Tom Brady.’
