The Official Patriots vs Bills game thread

[italia44]

man i HATE how in the last three years this team has let the clock run out


we need a KILLER INSTINCT god damn

That's just stupid.....1 TO left,Buffalo has 3 and we get the ball to start the 2nd half:bricks:

 

[sly24]

Well, that wasn't pretty. At least we get the ball to start the 2nd half.

 

[SVN]

Bills havent driven the length of the field to score any points. Not saying they cant but they havent. Pats have only themselves to blame on offense with a combination moving away from the running game on short yardage and fumbles and missed FG's

 

[holyredeemer]

Cant blame the D too much. They've done more than expected to keep this team in the game. 2 fumbles, 2 missed fg's. Failure to capitalize on any of the Buffalo turnovers. This offense better figure it out during the half. And some of you fans, you figure it out too and stop turning this thread into absolute ****. TY.

Game certainly isn't lost but the Pats are performing horribly today. It's not doom and gloom to point out what is occurring.

the way everyone posted it seems like the season over already when the game isn't even over yet

 

[PatriotReign]

I actually miss O'Brien, despite the questionable playcalling the offense didn't play scared.

 

[Betterthanmost]

Going forwared, Gost should only kick when we have tried everything and there is under 6 secs left in 2nd or 4th quarters. Other than that, keep him on the bench till the draft.

 

[coolguy]

this is game looks like last years

Lucky end to the half. Gutless decision by BB. Lucky to be down 7 at the half.

Ridley is bringing it once more and needs to be the focal point to start the second half.

 

[nekromantique]

defense is playing well despite the fact that theyve been on the field nonstop. give them a break. when your offense keeps coughing up the ball...defense is put in a tough spot

I'd rather have seen a pick six than watch them tuck their tail between their legs.

That just reeked of arrogance and entitlement. The pats aren't above trying hard to overcome a deficit.

 

[stcjones]

Wow.....someone compared BB to looking like Norv Turner a few pages back. While that seemed wrong and disrespectful....I now am thinking maybe you aren't that far off....


WHEN was the last time we saw BB too afraid to GO FOR IT on 4th and 1 deep in the opponents end......(Don't even GET ME STARTED on the fact that he didn't CHALLENGE the Ridley run on 3rd and 2 where he EASILY got the first there...Good to have those ball hawking assistants up in the booth keeping an eye on that kind of sh#t).......AND.......pulling a Neville Chamberlain and kneeling down with 50+ seconds to go in the half!!!!!!!???? WHo is this BB IMPOSTER!!!!!!!!

 

[moejr]

God ******* damn it try to get 3 at least!!!!!

Ghost can't hit crap right now. It should be 14-13. He may need some sit down time.

WE will not even get threw the first round of the playoffs with this ******** offense that's if we make it at this point.

I have hated McD from day one and wish he would just disappear.

 

[hodgey]

until the offense can do something on the outside teams like the bills will continue to play everybody within 5 yards of the los making the short - intermediate routes very difficult.

 

[SyN65]

So, despite McDaniels fumbling the ball twice, allowing a pass to go right through his hands on a first down throw, failing to properly set up on a come back route and missing two field goals, the Patriots are within a touchdown at the half...

Stop using logic and reasoning. This board is incapable of thinking that way. The sky is falling. 1-15. Bench brady for Mallet, etc. etc. etc.


Pats are playing awful and are within a TD. BB is going to give them an earful at half time. They will be fine.

 

[italia44]

What's wrong with a hail Mary or at lead a few deep passes ?

McDaniels continues to play scared

Because buffalo had 3 friggin' timeouts.....THINK!:bricks:

 

[PatriotsInGA]

Well it's only a 1 score game despite the Pats miscues.

We get the ball to start the second half, I like it.

How about a set of plays in the first drive? None of which were reproduced after, even though the bills did not appear to come even close to making a stop.

play calling and execution combined to create this suck

 

[Mack Herron]

Offense is once again trying to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. 30 minutes from 1-3.

 

[Observer]

This is starting to remind me of that Denver playoff game where the offense sputtered and guys started trying to do too much to make up for it and the wheels fell off the wagon.

Third and two early, what part of you have to be able to run the ball doesn't Josh get. Then there is the fascination with rotational personnel. Why can't a guy who is gashing them stay in when they're in rhythm. It's like all their fascinations, including the early one with Lloyd on the perimeter. Or the kicker.

Finding a rhythm is worth it's weight in gold. Targeting matchups to prove how smart we are isn't. Situational football this isn't.

Belichick has that same WTF look on his face he always gets now when their genius plans don't pan out as envisioned.

Belichick normally gets that look when runners forget to hold the ball, receivers forget how to catch and kickers forget how to kick. He is cool with watching defenders watch very carefully as the opposing receiver catches the ball over their heads though.
