PostGame Thread OFFICIAL POSTGAME THREAD: Patriots Fall 35-31 to the Bills

[NFL Mystique]

Diggs was still a None Factor against his old Team Today. H Henry was a joke: if we had TE Dawson Knox we win.

I like Henry. But I think the Patriots need better if they are ever going to win a title.

If Henderson broke off the route and May expected him to continue and he would be open, you are an idiot if you think he is supposed to run instead of throwing to an open receiver.
But you thought he just threw it to no one so does your whining really matter any way? Drop this one, and you’ll cry about something else.

Throwing the ****ing ball wether the receiver was there or not was the wrong decision.

I know you're dense but don't unblock me to harass me over stupid ****. I liked it way better when you cried and took your ball home.

Bottom line, the defense gave up 5 straight touchdowns. They sucked. Thats a terrible sign for them going forward.

This was all on coaching, and Drake Maye’s coach turned into a pumpkin (pardon the pun). The coaching **** the bed with a lack of a 2nd half adjustment, and Drake was pedestrian passing despite 2 touchdown runs. This was more embarrassing than anything. Up 21-0 and wind up getting outscored 35-10 the rest of the way. Difference is, they have a QB who still gives you a chance when down 21 points, our QB couldn’t come back from 4 points at the end.

That being said, I predicted a loss, didn’t think it would happen the way it did, but I felt keeping a double digit wining streak going is tough for any team. I felt the team would get behind early and try to come back, never thought they’d be up 21-0, but no lead is safe when Allen is on the field, he’s the best QB in football and may win his 2nd MVP in a row the way he’s ending the season.

There are some positives in my opinion. Of course Henderson was spectacular, he’s a threat to go the distance on any play. He’s up to 773 yards on only 143 carries (5.4 yards a carry) and 7 TD rushes. The team ran the ball down their throats, 246 yards rushing total, for 9.8 yards a carry, and 4 rushing TDs, and still lost, all I could do is shake my head.

I also thought Maye, despite being subpar passing, showed a lot of fight, despite not showing to be clutch at the end.

Also, this may just be a reset for the season, maybe they needed a punch in the mouth to show them that they need to play better. If we can get Milton back soon, that would be tremendous for the defense.

You can’t win every game, they weren’t gonna go 15-2, they still control their own destiny in the division, if they can win out, they will be sitting pretty. But they need to play better, Baltimore will be a big test, and the Dolphins have been playing really good football lately, so 2 really good tests for the Pats. Jets are in trouble, should win that one.

The final score isn’t as depressing as is the way it got to that score, if that makes any sense. Allen showed his true self the last two games, he’s a monster, gonna be tough to beat in the playoffs. But teams can run on them. That’s how you beat them. Run it down their throats, and if a team can play solid defense, limit Allen’s explosiveness, they can be beat.

Agreed.

Getting outscored 35-10 after being up 21-0 is a coaching issue. The lack of adjustment was startling.

We're still ahead of schedule and have a great future with Maye. Need reinforcement on the defensive side with personnel and coaching (hopefully Terrell Williams comes back healthy).

What If Buffalo had some of theor guys who were out on D??

You understand that the route was broken off AFTER the valll was thrown right? Well maybe you don’t. You are blocked because you are an idiot who won’t listen when they are wrong.
Every now and then your idiocy is so pronounced it needs to be addressed.

Really thought our Offense would make ore than keep up. Good start horrible finish.

The defense has not neeb good all year. Offense needed to show up in the second half against Allen.

Pats could've taken the crown from the king today at home. A loss next week and the noose tightens around Mayes neck and he gets branded a guy who can't win a big game. 98.5 already starting the Maye can't bring the team back talk...but how could you argue? Today was really bad and I think it tells us something that mcdaniels didn't trust Maye with the game...23 passes vs 25 runs

So not only do you assume that Henderson runs the wrong route but that he was also wife open had he not done so.

I'll focus on what happened while you live in this fantasy world where if he was only open and if Maye had only saw him it would of magically turned out different!

Address your neurodivergent tendency to harass everyone with every single response. You don't interact like a normal person and literally engage with people to say things like "you are stupid" instead of "I think you're wrong and here's why"

You're a piece of **** and everyone knows it but I get the feeling thats what gets you through your day.

This is correct. The loss is on Vrabel. He went into a zone prevent defense against the best QB in the NFL. Really dumb. Gave up 4 straight TDs. Just had to keep blitzing, and stunting, and play man. Chose not to do that so the loss is on the Head Coach.

How is there a noose from 1 loss after 10 straight wins? Jesus you people need help.

Baltimore will be favored next week, probably by 3

Loss C Davis for a while and Allen murdered our Zone.

6.5 right now

Are you from this area? People lose their **** after one loss. Are you a red Sox fan? This **** has been happening around here for time eternal. In Mayes career how many times has he been down in the second half? And how many of those games have resulted in Patriots wins?...I'll answer it for you...Maye has ZERO fourth quarter comebacks. ZERO. he has one game winning drive. Until he changes the narrative fans have every ****ing right to question him and yes the noose shall tighten

The loss “is on” the whole team. Just like all the wins are. It amazes me how fans are so insecure that a team is 11-3 and they feel the need to blame someone for losing a close game to a good team.

Until he proves he can be clutch, that talk will continue, and rightfully so.

I don’t blame McDaniels, if someone told me that the Pats would run the ball 25 times for 246 yards and 4 rushing TDS, I’d take that all day. I would’ve thought the Pats had won against anyone.

 

[ViperGTS]

Love just threw a TD to a RB in the end zone that was decidedly not open. So enough with the WRs not getting o

6.5 right now

Vegas got their wish today and now the Pats are on the hard road for the next 3 games. 6.5 is a monster line.

 

[slash83]

The amount of zone they played was ridiculous, what’s the point of having Gonzo, paying Davis all that money to play that soft ********. Man worked so well the first game, hopefully they learned their lesson today.
