Patriots run league high 89 plays in week 1

If we had executed in the red zone this game would have not been close. Sounds simple but really it's a testament to the fact that we have young/new receivers Brady is depending on. In a close confined area, Brady and his receivers need to be on the same page. I have no doubt as the year progresses they'll improve. Just gotta stay healthy.

Not even that, really. Eliminate three turnovers - none of which were forced by the opposition - and the Pats don't lose, effectively, 24 points. They should have won this game by nearly four touchdowns. Again, it's one thing if the Bills' defenders hit Pats' players causing turnovers. None of the three (which cost NE 10 points and gave Buffalo 14) involved a Pats' player even being touched by a Bills' player.

Its good that were getting all these plays, I just hope we can convert more of them to touchdowns.

With 26 1st downs, only Detroit managed to move the chains (28 times) more than the Pats...
