OFFICIAL POST GAME THREAD - Patriots Beat Bills

I don’t feel comfortable with Patterson running the ball, but we have to use what we have, our running back core is depleted and better hope we keep White healthy.
The defense is getting turnovers, that’s a good sign, we were able to generate pressure with our D-Line.
Lastly we need our O-Line to step it up.

Dorsett is on a milk carton. Wonder whats up with that.

Dorsett saw plenty of snaps. Just wasn't the priority target.

Highlight of the post game? Booger’s left middle finger. Dayuuuum!

I loved Patterson at RB and he wasn't completely awful for his first game doing it.

Anyone who didn't love seeing our gadget guy 6'4" WR line up in the backfield is someone who hates fun.

This game definitely showed how important a healthy Michel is to our offense. Our running game tonight was abysmal.

No offense meant to Michel, but any decent RB1 would be a difference maker right now.

Detroit was Brady’s worst game of the season.

He didn’t have jack **** at WR in Detroit. He had a full complement tonight. He fluttered a ball to Gordon on the left sideline, fluttered a ball to Gronk in the corner of the end zone in the first half that could have been picked after getting happy feet, and then panicked and floated a ball to White (IIRC) in the flats that could have also been picked. This was his worst and it’s not even remotely close.

He’ll be better next week. Especially if Mason is back and Michel is back. The lack of a ground game meant Buffalo could play every down in the nickel and dime.

I don’t want to see him back there anymore. His pad level is way too high and he got de-cleated up the B-gap on one occasion. He’s a fumble waiting to happen as a RB.

I'll admit I hold my breath every time he gets hit, but he hasn't actually fumbled yet (on a scrimmage play...). Somehow McCoy holds the ball like an idiot and still keeps it.

It's refreshing to see a tough defensive game for a change. Glad it can still happen in the NFL.

People tuning in at 3rd quarter probably couldn't tell if its live or archive footage..

Time for Goodell to suspend Brady for "using some unknown substance, I don't know what it is but all I know is it's got to be something because Brady is playing better than 90% of the young QB "stars!" I so desperately want to ram down the stupid fans throat and I'll Article 46 this crap if I have to!"

James White is now up to 55 catches, I believe. He's still on pace to break the record for most receptions by a running back in a single season. He's the most reliable player on offense.

Yeah, what was up with those McCoy carries? Dude's like the anti BJGE.

Belichick will address this in the press conference after he goes through injuries and status for next week.

“Yeah. Tsk. Gordon’s a really smart receiver. Tsk. Whatever the rules are, they are. Tsk. Couuuggh. Tsk.”

When did some Patriots fans get arrogant ? There is no other fanbase Id love to be apart of, however some people seem to think we need to win 43-14 every game.

Division Game + last prayer for buffalo playoff push + its their superbowl? 25-6 and a comfortable win sounds right.

Judging by the GDT we need a new #1 RB and QB

You're on fire!

BTW, my daughter called this two weeks ago when she saw CP and said "he looks just like LeGarrette Blount". So I thought: why not? I don't want him to be the only thing between the pass rush and Tom Brady, but he is good with the ball in his hands.

When did some Patriots fans become unable to accept even mild criticism of the team's play during a win?

That Tom Brady guy doesn't look half bad in the pocket. But ultimately I think he has a much better career at left tackle.

Barfalo game summary...2 bildos...Zero Touchdowns...and Jim Kelly picked Buffalo for the win...it's a real genius party up there in "Glow In The Dark Canal" land...
