PostGame Thread Official Post Game Thread - #1 Seed Pats beat the Bills

[Foxypats]

Wining 6 games on the road is the most impressive stat of the season. Hopefully they make it 7-0 soon. !! Love this team so much and I would have no one else besides BB coaching them !!

 

[mgteich]

that should have been a shut out. sucks that defense had to be dinged for those 10 points

???
Charge 7 to Special Teams

I love Judon!

I love this dude and I love this team's chemistry. Atleast what we get to see of it. I mean when BB is cracking jokes about JC that has to be a good sign.

One of the most amazing victories Ive seen.

BB has just made his case for COTY.

You might give SOME credit to Josh. He did this once before with Cassell.

 

[Bill Lee]

You mean that's a thing? Can't recall any one here *****ing about our OC. Really, say it ain't so!

Seems they hate their own players, coaches and front office staff just as much as a large percentage of this board hates ours.

Also they have their share of posters still butthurt by a single draft pick their team made many years ago.

If Harry didn’t do Harry things then it would’ve been 14-3.

Utter crap!

Without Harry's blocking, we might have lost the game.

UPS:
The early running game, especially running outside the tackles. Harris TD came on an outside run with Harry blocking down on the DE, allowing Wynn to pull and take out the OLB, opening the hole for Johnson to go through followed by Harris.

Bailey's Kick-offs - Not one near a sideline.
Godchaux & Barmore: They almost single handedly controlled the interior of the Bills O-Line, helping to shut down the Bill running game.
Guy - Stout against the run and paying attention so he could fall on the Brieda fumble to recover it.
Ekaule - Called up from the PS. Had a sack and a TFL in limited snaps

Nick Folk. - He is MONEY.. WOW.
Harris & Stevenson - Ground and Pound. 34 rushes for 189 yards. over 1/3 of that came on Harris' 65 yard TD scamper.

DOWNS:
Pats Interior O-line- Late in the game, they allowed Matt Milano to blow up 2 straight plays, forcing the Pats to turn the ball over without running a lot of time off the clock.

David Andrews had an extremely hard time against Harrison Phillips. On 3 occasions that I saw, Phillips pushed Andrews 3-4 yards back opening a hole for another person to make a TFL. This is how the Jonnu Jet Sweep got blown up.

The inside running game, particularly the draw to Bolden.. (please get rid of this).

Harry as the Deep man on the punt return unit. Fluke bounce causes the ball to barely skim his facemask. He shouldn't have been close enough for it to do this..

Punting - Can't really fault Bailey too much. The 15 yard punt was a result of the ball moving after he let it drop for the kick.. It hit off the side of his foot.

Qualms: Really wish that McDaniels had done more to get the ball outside the tackles on runs. Maybe it's a matter of Mac recognizing the Defense better, but there were too many times that they had the outside and didn't take advantage of it. But they need to do more Jet sweeps with either a TE leading the way or not pulling a guard. This was true on the Bourne Jet Sweep when he cut up inside instead of going outside. It was also true on a few of the runs. The RBs could have had large chunk plays if the play had gone outside instead of in the A or B gaps.

Serious question: any idea why McDermott decided that receiving to start the second half was more important than having the wind at his back in the fourth quarter?

I thought it was a strange call as well. Especially after he deferred. Thought it was a given that he'd choose having the wind at his back in the 4th quarter. though, by then, it was cutting across the field instead of along it.. Which is why Allen seemed to do better throwing to his left late in the game.

 

[mgteich]

For me, the biggest difference in the game was Offensive Game Plan.

Josh's game plan was truly incredibly good.

Buffalo's game plan was awful. They have one of the 5 top rushing quarterbacks in the league. They should run lots more designed runs by the QB. Josh was able to make short passes. That should have been part of the game for more than one quarter.

You're not a green cow...you're a stinking "wide right!!" moronic and disgusting GREEN SOW....you got a lot of puny little pea balls to log in here and talk down your snotty snout to US..the best fanbase in the history of the NFL...enjoy the slop you stupid pigboy disgrace...

WOW

 

[Ross12]

Did McDermott seriously go into his presser saying not to give Belichick and credit and that the Bills were better? Lmao that’s like some grade school behavior…

WHAT? Did he REALLY say that? He just passed Tomlin, Harbaugh, and Gruden as biggest douches in the league.

Win!
1.The Bills very often completely stacking the box committed to stopping the run VS Patriots completely committed to running the ball. Winner Patriots. In weather like this it was the ultimate dagger in the heart.
2. Patriots D playing excellent D/Run D, It softened in the last 2 drives but ultimately they still made it extremely difficult to to get the TD. Second dagger in the heart.
3. In the trenches! beating the Bills on both sides of the ball.
4. BB using Harry for punts in this weather could have been the key to losing the game.

Also rans:
-Bills choosing 3rd quarter possession over favorable wind in the 4th quarter.
-Folk!
-Credit Allen making it uncomfortable in the final 10 minutes. However, the media *********** of hyper praising Allen's passing in tough circumstances is odd. (A) Patriots appeared to be in softer coverage as time got deep into the 4th. (B) The Patriots' DBs had multiple INT possibilities that they couldn't execute. Allen's numbers were not good but very respectable for these conditions. But, IMHO, it was very fortunate Allen didn't have multiple Ints.

The final irony of the night is those stupid humps up there in Barfalo having to sit on their stinking bildos like the munts they are.

Coach needs a proctologist, fans need a psychologist:

He’s desperate. He knows BB is a far better coach than he’ll ever be. He knows his team has already peaked. He knows the Patriots are the better team. He knows his team is entering a tailspin that will end with him being run out of town being chased by a mob of fans with bags of feathers and buckets of boiling tar. He knows this gem of a game will be followed by a game in Tampa, and in a couple of weeks a rematch in New England. He’s not thinking very well at the moment.
