Reported for promoting prostitution you womanizing scum

I said nothing about financial transactions. Just morality, you judgmental bluenose.

but thanks for the compliment anyway.

But also I am worried as hell about Judon. CAnnot afford to lose him.

After the game during an ESPN interview, he said he got hit with Hightower's helmet and it knocked the wind out of him. He said he was fine.

From a deranged Colts fan on their board;





oh how i would love if we just ran it 50 times against the Colts and embarrass them again

Watch the Pats sign Jonas Gray next week...

 

[bresna]

I’m surprised the Bills didn’t take the wind in the 2nd half, first possession of the 3rd quarter be damned. I was fearful they would do that. They may have been able to climb back if that was the case. Benefit to us, what a game plan by the Pats!

The Patriots deferred so they were the ones who got to choose in the second half.

Not sure why that dumbass chiefs fan is running is mouth when his team's offense struggled to score 16 points against the broncos at home

FYI - You quoted Joker, not me..

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.

Barmore definitely looked better than last week (when he was probably playing a bit hurt) and Godchaux was solid.

I didn't even notice Andrews had a tough game. Shows how observant I am haha.

Can't wait to get Dugger back for Indy.

 

[One-If-By-Sea]

You mean to tell me there were no other times where the fans calling for a pass would've been justified? Come on

Another excuse to ***** and moan in the GDT? Do you have a third excuse as well? Weak.

 

[Brotherblues]

I wouldn't say he threw only Daboll under the bus.. He threw the entire offense under the bus.

He threw everything and everyone under the bus. "My players and coaches stunk all around, can't really put that on me, and you can't really credit BB for it."

 

[GaryfromTO]

LOL

 

[mike_usagisan]

LOL

It's funny as the ESPN crew were openly calling for a pro bowl vote for Poyer during the broadcast.

 

[Bill Lee]

“Let’s not give too much credit to Belichick”

I like McDermott but that’s the first time I’ve heard an NFL coach go out of his way to say the other coach had nothing to do with beating his team. Man he is salty here. LOL

He went on to say the team he coached had lots of opportunities but did nothing with them.

Maybe he should say the obvious, it's on him and his coaching staff, he got totally outcoached.

BB made our offense one dimensional, he had no answer for that.

He blames "sloppy football" due to one fumble, but we handed his team their only TD via a turnover.

Anyone else notice he's wearing a sweatshirt with the sleeves cut off? Seems like BB is in his head!

The Patriots deferred so they were the ones who got to choose in the second half.

No, the Bills won the toss and deferred their choice to the 2nd half.
Patriots vs. Bills: New England outlasts Buffalo, wins 14-10 in a wind tunnel

Maybe he should have spent more time coaching during the game than screaming at the refs every two seconds.

Nope that's all I got, I rest my case

 

[jah]

Just like I like my women.

It would have even worked if you bolded the beginning of that sentence too.

 

[Ollie]

He'll be fine

based on?

 

[jimnance]

The Patriots are really intent on not putting Mac in harms way for whatever reason. I'm ok with that because it's working.

Glad you're ok with that

 

[VectorPrime]

I cannot see a way how the Bills have even a prayer in the rematch. They’re going to meltdown.

 

[upstater1]

I said before the game that the key would be to shut down Diggs.

I have to say I was very displeased to see Diggs blow by Williams and for McCourty to get there so late. The one thing the Patriots couldn't afford to have happen happened.

So lucky that Diggs dropped that ball.

 

[Bill Lee]

That was a phenomenal play by Bryant to defend that pass. Would have been a TD. He had the awareness to break from the guy he was covering. He stopped an open touchdown in a 4 point game. Phenomenal.

+1 for BB the GM: Bryant is a 2020 UDFA.
