Patriots Pregame Thread Bills - Pats line (Patriots vs Bills Pregame Thread)

In the future, I want to see how he responds if the team is down by two or three scores. That is a huge test to becoming an elite QB. Would he press and make mistakes? Stay calm and keep the team in the game?

Same. That's the test McCorkle flunked.

John Husseys crew has been assigned to this Sundays matchup.

Of course, the MAFIA is whining about him and his crew. Same as bellyaching about sitting through a 3 hour game where you had to walk 30 minutes to and from. STFU B.

I can immediately think of ten games a Brady led Patriots team overcame a two or three score deficit to win.

Point being, that is one reason Brady was an elite Quarterback. The pressure never got to him. Maye is/nor will be a Tom Brady type QB. But being elite is how you perform when things look bleak.

The test will come eventually. Hopefully not in 2025.

The pressure was felt by Tom, he got better when the pressure was on.

I was hoping for hochuli for the full Billsfan meltdown but this will do.

Test him with Kyle Williams on some Streaks down the Field.

This is what I would have said if Volin had asked me that question.

"Ben, you salacious liar".

"whatever the odds are don't mean a thing to us. It doesn't change our preparation. I doesn't change our game plan. It won't change our mind set. All we can do this week is go 1-0, learn from the mistakes we make and then get ready for the next week and try to get better for the next week. That is what an NFL season is all about. It is a grind where you work your ass off and hope for a few hours of joy when you win, before you have to go back to that grind and do it again."
[
"We've had a LOT of those few hours a week, Ben, you loathsome individual, the players have certainly made this season a lot more enjoyable than the ones this team has gone through the last couple of years. Fortunately, we are not even close to being the team we feel can eventually be. We are now playing December football and every game's importance is magnified even more and what we have done the last 3 months won't mean much if you don't rise to the occasion these last 4 weeks.

So Ben.......God you creep me out, I don't care if the odds makers don't believe in us. I don't care if the media feels we lucked into our 11-2 record. I ONLY care about the people we have in our building and it's my job to have them ready at 1pm on Sunday. See you then.'

I never understood why people got upset when the media or other fans "disrespected" us. WHO CARES! Rodney is right, we should embrace being the underdog, we should DEMAND being the underdog in every game. Maye should be saying at his pressers. "When I go back and look at the film, I cannot believe how badly I played. GOD, all the mistakes sometimes overwhelm me, and Josh has to take time out and ground me. Everyy game I'm hoping I can earn the trust of my teammates and sometimes I wonder...."

Great, Ken. The only improvement would be if you'd lead with, "Jane, you ignorant slut!"

That was the exact vibe I was going for, but I couldn't exactly use those words, because although Volin is a LOT of despicable things, he isn't an "Ignorant slut". He is an insufferable *******. He is a duplicitous douchebag. He is lying scumbag. He is a talentless bastard and a salacious scoundrel. But don't ask me what I REALLY think of him.

And will be remembered as the one who intentionally harpooned the Pats attempt at a perfect season.

It will be the epitaph on his tombstone.

Was it worth it to you Ben?

We all know how this goes.

We win the game, and we are the shiny new penny on the block. We lose the game, and we become entrenched as the team with the easy schedule who is having a "nice" season with an improving young QB. How cute. Then we can go back to spending 20 minutes of an hour show talking about the Cowboys who need to win out just to get to 10 wins. And their only path to the playoffs is to have the Eagles lose out while playing 3 games against teams who have 5 wins between them, but we will talk about them incessantly, nonetheless.

No Barmore at the start of practice today.

More on the toe:

 

[NFL Mystique]

Even with injuries, are the Patriots really a "worse" team than Buffalo? Not being favored at home is because Vegas legit thinks the Bills are better. Or, they are equal teams and want people betting on the Patriots.

 

[DaBruinz]

2. The Bills were sacked EIGHT times and had 12 QB hits (BTW is a sack counted also as a QBhit or are they in addition to the sacks?) The Bills were held to 3 points in the 2nd half

Not sure how it used to be, but a QB hit is one of 3 categories of pressures now. The 3 Categories are Sacks, QB Hits, Hurries.

So a QB hit is a different category than a sack but still considered pressure on the QB.

A concern especially with Williams out. Our run D has been giving up around 5 ypc since he's been out and the Bills have been averaging about 5 ypc. Cook should be a focus. He needs to run well for Bills to win.
