lol no it didn’t.

The Patriots went for two because they had no choice. It wasn’t some genius move. They knew Folk wouldn’t be able to make it in that wind so he made the only choice he could make.

The Bills had TWO drives in the redzone at the end. Either one of those
It doesn’t matter why the Pats did it. It mattered a lot that McDermott didn’t and the Bills chased that point all night in a game where points were hard to come by. It made the difference in the outcome. 100%

McDermott said he decided to go with the safe play. His words. Big mistake.
 
Dolphins technically could still get us in that scenario - they can finish 10-7 with tiebreak over us with a 2nd win

That is true. But I don’t see them winning out. Their last two games are at Tennessee and the Pats. Even the Saints could be tough to beat with Kamara back.
 
Anyway someone just looking at the game stats would have absolutely no idea how ****ing weird this game was.

Might be the most even split in TOP I can recall seeing.

The Bills never chased those points.

Bass missed a field goal. If he made it, the Bills win the game with seconds remaining.

Allen shouldn’t have taken that sack to make the field goal harder.
 
If the Pats go 1-3 the rest of the way with their only win vs Buffalo, the Pats win the division. The Pats can win the division with a 10-7 record as long as they beat Buffalo in two weeks. The best the Bills can do in that scenario is 10-7 with two losses to the Pats.

Yeah i’ve mentioned this a few times. The Bills vs Pats matchup next is the division, in my opinion.

The Bucs game was an assumed L (in my head) the entire time.

Yes they did. 14-10 is a very different score than 14-11 for reasons that shouldn’t have to be explained
 
If the Bills lose against the Pats they are probably eliminated from the postseason. They'll finish 10-7 or worse, and there are a huge glut of teams in similar position who are primed to pass them.

They have a lot of the tie breakers with a lot of the wild card teams even with a loss to the Pats. They have a decent chance with a 10-7 record especially since several of those wild card hunt teams are playing each other and too inconsistent.

Maybe, but they would be passed up by Indy if NE goes 10-7, so that's one less slot. Was playing with the ESPN playoff machine and saw a lot of avenues in which Buffalo is bumped out.

It is if the Pats win the game. If they don’t, the Bills still need the Pats lose another game to win the division.

Bills beat the Pats in two weeks: "we showed you!!! The East runs through Buffalo!!!!"

Pats still beat the Colts, Jaguars and Dolphins to maintain 1 game lead and win division: "the refs screwed us, it's not fair to Josh"
 
Yeah, and Mac Jones threw for 19 yards and still beat them.

Really was a terrible game plan by the Pats.

It took them 9 Bills drops, a dropped TD, a fumble where no one touched the RB, a missed field goal, and a missed PI in the endzone for the Pats to win by 4.

It was like a perfect set of circumstances.

Don’t see it happening again.

The only way it is for the division is if the Pats drop a game. Is that in your head too? Because you have no chance if we win the other 3 games.
 
Do Bills fans root for the Patriots next week against Indy? Gives them a better chance of making the playoffs

No lol. Pats lose against Indy and the Bills can take the division the following week.
 
Something is up with Diggs.

He dropped the game winner vs the Pats and he missed two big long throws today.
Injuries. He has had oblique and knee injuries and it seems like he’s trying to play through the.
