Game Day Thread Official Game Day Thread- Week 16....Bills @ Pats

[upstater1]

Really don't think I was wrong when I posted this week that this defense is not only injury depleted, but it was talent depleted BEFORE the injuries.

I mean, who are we missing? Van Noy, Branch and Hightower?

We have no decent backups for these 3?

We're picking up guys off the street this year and starting them. We've really bled so much talent, and it is showing.

 

[TennisBallHead]

Belichick's stinky defensive drafting has finally caught up to them.

 

[BradyFTW!]

At this point I won't even care when Butler signs somewhere else.

Adios Malcolm, go be someone else's overrated, soon-to-be overpaid CB2.

 

[VegasGuy]

What does that say about the rest of the AFC then if the Pats are in first?

I was just thinking the same thing

 

[ALP]

the first 1 or 2 series of any game dont really matter

and this included that huge play

not worried about D that much yet, but would like to be able to hold bills running a big more

 

[Gronkowski123]

clay free release..easy 1st , chung playing 5 yards off..why?

 

[FoxboroFlyer]

They're just getting warmed up. Might not turn the corner till second half, but they aren't losing today.

I honestly am ok with Butler going at the $$ he wants. Always grateful for the Seahawks pick but this year he has been an above average CB which doesn’t equate to #1 money IMO. Now I also hate what we paid Gilmore but it’s done.

 

[ensoul]

Figure a way to stop McCoy and they are ****ed. Taylor is a terrible passer.

Maybe against most teams but any horrible quarterback can put a 300 yards against this defense.

Looks like the Bills are ready to play. Pats have a Pittsburgh hangover?

Steelers or the Ravens, hell even the Jags can eliminate the Pats this year. This Pats team isn’t that good, and they sure as hell are inferior to the better NFC teams

Well not much but it does make you think this team could be ripe for an upset in the playoffs if they don't correct these things.

 

[mosslost]

This is a home game against a potential playoff team... pats look very shaky

 

[PatsfanTN]

Wait so are the Pats bad again now or no?

Look man, I get what you’re saying, panic and all. But on a serious note, this Defense is really not that good. The offense is really having to carry the load this year. Anything is possible as long as the Oline stays up. Manning and the Colts did it I guess.

Looks like that’s every week now

I think as a gift to the true Pat fans and not the trolls, I'm going to start banning early and often today!!!

 

[RobertWeathers]

Im outta here. Zero value GDT as usual. Just alot of panic and irrational nervousness.

 

[Bruins29]

Looks like that’s every week now

Shut up troll

 

[patfanken]

Butler got beat on the long play, but the thing that is starting to make me that Butler has somewhat checked out was his lack of effort on the McCoy 4 yd run around the end the next play.

I found it interesting that in the sights and sounds section of the Patriot all access segment, when McCourty was giving his pregame speech to the DB's I noticed Butler looked disinterested and barely joined the group in the breakdown.

Steelers or the Ravens, hell even the Jags can eliminate the Pats this year. This Pats team isn’t that good, and they sure as hell are inferior to the better NFC teams

If we survive the last two weeks, get the bye and get some players back, I will be very confident.
