Week 2 post-game thread - Patriots 40, Bills 32

Bradley Fletcher worries me

Props to Oline - was expecting Brady to see a lot of pressure today but nothing.

Sign Lewis to an extension right now please

Our OL will be a hell of a unit in 2016 and beyond. The offense is just absurd.

I just hope the D continues to improve and will be good enough for #5.

Hard to not come away from a game like this and NOT be feeling overly good or positive....because all you think about is the multiple coaching BLUNDERS (and this was definitely one of the WORST COACHED GAMES by BB and staff...and there are a lot on his resume')....the team played well for 3 quarters and Had the game basically put away.....and still ended up sneaking by by the skin of their teeth....a lot of questions to be answered by belichick after today on what the F happened.... I know a win is a win and I am happy for that....but it should NEVER been allowed to disintegrate like that with a belichick coached game

We should have won by 3 TDs and humbled the Bills. I feel lousy that we gave them hope or something to build off of or something.

I don't know, I'm just mad. I haven't been this mad about a win since probably Oakland last year

Pittsburgh put up 43 points today. Only 21 last week.

Just saying.

Buffalo radio post game...heh...well, they popped like a balloon ...fun listening to other fans cry and biatch for a change

We really do need to find a way to upgrade the 3rd CB spot. Fletcher/Ryan is just not acceptable, clearly.

I have plenty to complain about and I'm sure Belichick does too.

People complained from 1st minute on . Nothing different. We forget we dont have grigson and luck sometimes in the gamethread.

I'd like to thank the many people here who are contributing to the unintentional humor factor in this thread.

I love it. This sensation is how you can tell you're a Patriots fan. We're so spoiled by unrelenting success, we feel mediocre about a division road win if we don't burn down the other team's stadium and salt the earth.

And 7 of those 21 were in garbage time. Our defense is good. Real good.

14 in 59 minutes 52 seconds. Those other 7 came on basically the last play of the game.

quick thoughts:

* amen-freakin-dola
* I dont know what happened after the first series but defense got their head out of their own rear
* not a fan of the 4th down tries, big leads at that point. pin inept barfalo offense deep in their own end
* c'mon chandler you need to win those 1 on 1 matchups
* 2-0, what a good start to the season so far

[edit: extra thoughts]
* lewis needs to hold onto the ball, 2 fumbles in 2 games, luckily for him no one good enough to sub in for him
* 59 passing attempts, reminds me of the pats-vikings game where they just pass pass pass vs an elite DL.

I just don't understand why they continue to run hurry up pass plays in the 4th quarter of games they have in hand by 3 scores. That makes zero sense. If all they did was take a knee for 3 plays they would burn either all of the other team's TOs, 2 minutes off the clock or a combination. Instead, they get on and off the field in a hurry and our defense starts getting gassed instead of theirs.

What's he got to be proud of? Against his beloved defense, Brady just broke the all-time record for most passing yards against the Bills with 466. The previous record was 464 by George Blanda in 1961.

38-of-59 for 466 yards and three touchdowns, and New England had 507 total yards of offense.

This has been McDaniel's Achilles heel his whole career....trying to hard to be creative and mind bending at a PIVOTAL part of the game....when all you f'in need is smash mouth INTELLIGENT And basic football fundamentals....josh...they know you are going to pull the DOUBLE REVERSE on 3rd and 2.....SO DONT DO IT!!!

HOPEFULLY, he's gotten that out of his system, now, and we won't see it for the rest of the year. Those 4th-and-1 s.

Dion Lewis is the new Randy Moss?!



Dion Lewis' 258 yards from scrimmage across the first two weeks of the season are the 5th most in #Patriots history. Most since 07 Moss.

Rich Hill

Damn Brady nearly threw for 1/2K
