Game Day Thread SPECIAL GAMEDAY THREAD: Tampa takes on the Buggalo Billdos

[amfootball]

I don't understand fans logic when they say a game is rigged. Why watch it? Why spend your time and energy on something you think is rigged? Might as well watch the WWE

I agree. I mean it is entertainment. I don't think any pro or college sport is on the up and up. Never have. But I still watch. It is great fun regardless.

It’s not “luck.” Don’t you realize that the mistakes are what makes one team better than another? And btw, I don’t expect the Pats to run the ball 97% of the time either.

lol hope not

 

[TomPatriot]

Exactly…

You realize that works in the Bills favor, right?

or did you miss all of the patriot fans celebrating that there would be high wind in that first game? Because it helps the patriots.

You realize the Patriots can run on the Bills in any weather, right?

You realize that ability to run makes passing easier, right?

You realize those two factors work in the Pats favor, right?

Exactly…

The Pats running their full offense against the Bills #1 in the NFL defense (DVOA) is not a good matchup.

Belichick is extremely smart.

He has no interest in letting Mac Jones
play with fire against that D.

I hooooope against all hope they let Mac run his “full offense” against the Bills defense.

Running it 40-some times also isn’t ideal. Only resulted in 14 points.

I don’t see the Bills losing the rematch. It took A LOT of luck for the Pats to squeak out that 4 point win.

The Bills are an average team. The Pats are one of the best in the NFL. The Pats defense has been better than the Bills’ defense over the last two months. The Bills are not a good run defense and plays soft against physical teams. The Pats probably win this one in a low scoring affair.

 

[Malua]

Patriots never scored again and wouldn’t have scored even if given another quarter.

Patriots score next drive. You are trolling and deserve to be banned

Bills got 1 break (the muff).

Patriots got (literally) 9 breaks.

No comparison.

14-10, final score. FINAL.

BB’s a weird dude. I could see Mac throwing 25+ times.

 

[Wordsmyth]

Enjoy your return to mediocrity, CowPie.

14-10, final score. FINAL.

This is why it says Final when the game's over, after all.

The #1 defense that lost it's #1 corner 3 weeks ago?

I am sure the Bills will come in loading up for the run. So it wouldn’t shock me. Besides, the Bills first real test of their pass defense without White was mostly a failure. Brady had a bad second half tonight because he was forcing too many passes down the field and still passed for 363 yards.

I guess we’ll agree to disagree?

I don’t want to waste forum space just saying the same thing over and over.

Correct. It doesn't say. "The game is over, but with some whining and nonsensical revisionist history, things might change."

I disagree.

Thankfully it’s only 2 weeks until we can find out who is correct.

Believe it or not, you’d fit right in with a handful of posters if you did…

The facts are on my side. Have you watched your Bills the last eight weeks? They are sub-.500.

 

[Dr Pain]

Bills are screwed if Allen is really hurt. He had 2x the running yards of the rest of their team. He left in a walking boot

 

[Patriot Missile]

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.

Yeah, what does that say about your team when they drop 9 passes? Garbage maybe? Not clutch? That was a game in their own backyard with division up for grabs and they lost.

Speaking of a perfect set of circumstances? Let’s talk about the Jaguars. Was that a fluke too? Did the Bills drop 50 passes to lose that game? Did you see your team losing so unceremoniously again? My God, it’s like I’m talking to a 12 year old that doesn’t take any responsibility and passes blame to anybody but himself. In this case your lousy football team.

I don’t even know if you know what a real football team looks like unless you were paying attention the two times the Pats played the Bills over the last 20 or so years? Maybe your old enough to remember the old Bills from the early 90’s? I doubt it, probably stories from old family members about the greatness of wide right or the torture and humiliation of the other 3.

At any rate, Pats had a solid running game in the early 00’s, very good with Dillon. Not much of a dominating running game for the last 3 sb’s but they had Brady and White. They used the rbs in passing game to set keep the defense honest. Your running game is obsolete and Breida doesnt help. Bad formula when it goes through your quarterback. Thats why they are 1-5 against winning teams and the reason why a quick exit out of the playoffs is almost certain.

Lol. Really? I thought that was exactly what you wanted to do.... Say it enough and you start to believe it....
