People always forget the Pats were the “easy” team the last 2 years.. and I absolutely agree without Vrabel and Josh M here they aren’t close to 8-2.

You are forgetting a 2nd year QB coming into his own and spreading the ball around.. and a very good OC..

lol my Pats are good not great.. we have a competent HC again (BB lost his touch the last few years) and a very good OC in McDaniels.. a Young QB and O in general who IMO are playing way better than I expected. (8th on points averaging 26 points a game I think a TD better than last year). what I find funny the Bills have had 1 bad loss (Miami) but still rank 6th in O and 10th in D.. your Bills are fine just maybe a little inconsistent.. (O and D based on points per game for both)

Well right now the Pats would face the Bills in Gillette if the playoffs started today. Now could that Pats beat the Chiefs of course they only have 1 WR to worry about and Gonzo be on him most if not all game and the Pats have the best run D in the league. As for Pats O v Their D that’s a wee bit harder they have some good talent up front but the Pats have a couple good RB that could gash them and 1 who is an obvious HR threat.. This all said in the end I’d be shocked if they won against the Chiefs not because of their coaches I think the coaches cancel eachother out but rather because the Chiefs know what to do to win in the playoffs and the Pats have a lot of young inexperience players.. doesn’t mean they couldn’t win just more likely KC walks away with a W… but the fact they are in the playoffs make most fans here happy and it would be a. Very successful season.

This will be a true test for the Bills and to prove this past week was a fluke and a case of them not focused on the game at hand. If the Bills come out firing on all cylinders and win or even if they show resolve and win in a close game (TB a really good team IMO) then the Bills will be fine. If they pack it in and or no show then fans need to worry and calling for change is 100% Valid. My feelings Bills win 41-28.. Allen shows why he is defending league MVP

The dolphins have, but until last year the Jets had not beaten the Patriots in a regular season game since 2015. (I dare say you gave us more fits) The Dolphins we had not beaten since Tua became their starting QB till this year and that was a shoot out so the Phins would be my money bet if I was a bills fan not the Jets. But the Bills give us the second most headaches in the division because even with Brady we usually lost in Miami 😂

The only thing that was odd about the dolphins game is the fact that the Bills far superior team didn’t wake up in the second half to win a game they shouldn’t have.. great teams do that usually. Like I said I am expecting my Pats to have a huge let down game on Thursday and possibly lose to the Jets.. (the worst team in the NFL) a short week, an emotional and very physical win on Sunday, and unlike the Bills they are super young and not yet a great team. I hope I’m wrong but if it happens I won’t be shocked at all. It’s not easy stay up for every game… now if the Bills lay another Egg at home against the Bucs then if I was a bills fan I’d be concerned.

Why? Because the Dolphins are hot garbage this year.. The Phins and Jets are probably the 2 worst teams in the NFL so yes it’s very easy to overlook them and focused on a much harder opponent in Tampa Bay.

THIS HERE!! Is what I meant when Insaid Bills fans over react to a bad loss! Didn’t he just have his best game against KC the week before? RELAX the Bills as a team, coaches included looked beyond the Dolphins and were looking ahead to Tampa Bay.

The fans left in droves when Sullivan was still owning the team. He was incompetent owner and the team was beyond bad.. the fans came back once Kraft bought the team and have had a waiting list for Season tickets ever since.

Well been a fan since 1986 You know when we squished the fish, and got steam rolled by the Chicago Bears.. (they even had a dumb video about Raymond berry and his band) fun factoid the Pats had a 3-0 early in that game before getting crushed.. what’s funny is Tony Eason looked good that year and got so shellacked by the bears in The SB he never looked right again.. we stink till 1995 when Tuna and Bledsoe came to town.. so Ya. Even a Pats fan a long long time.. what’s funny is when the Bills were the AFC team in the 90’s the fans were rather amazing and cool at the ol Sullivan stadium..

Lol nah but Bills fans are so easy to turn on their team.. for example today was a picture perfect trap game.. your Bills just played probably the best game all year against Mahomes and the chiefs and today they went out there and just were flat. So what do they great bills fans HERE do “the sky falling” “we stink” etc etc instead of being rational and saying ok trap game and they were flat after a huge win.. I am expecting that on Thursday for the Pats.. it happens! Good teams survive it and move on.. The Bills when they can run the football are a great O when they can’t they are not a great O. Cook is the key for the Buffalo O THIS year.

I didn’t say the organization sucked now I said for most of the 20 years the Pats dominated they did.. As did the rest of the AFCE. Until the Bills got McDermott, who is a good coach and Allen the Bills were not a good team say since 2000. The point is I have heard so many whine about facing a 1st place schedule which is literally 2 games difference and so far the Bills are 1-0 and the Pats 0-1 on that..

They literally stunk and had only 3 legit wins last year. They were the cupcake or get right team the last 2 years.. and god whine about a 1st place schedule.. Pats had that for 20 yrs the difference is the other 3 AFCE teams were rather incompetent most years. But they still won against top teams.

They have won 2 SB been to 3.. you have to expect a down year sooner or later

He never had a good/great QB in TN. I think Maye is a top 10 QB mind you a few injuries on D today had me concerned until they came back in… (Henderson actually got banged up and we were down to our FB and PS RB who I don’t know the names of lol) thank god he wasn’t hurt point is pats are super thin on talent

That game is a nail biter right now.. a young WB mistake could cost the pats the game.

Both rookies got long TD today.. long long way from over

He looked better after that drive 2TD passes and 180 yards passing

It’s only half the Bills can still win this one easily.. looks like a classic case of hangover after beating the Chiefs last week..

I would think if you win the division your more than likely the 1 seed and would have a bye week to heal and it’s a lot easier to win 2 games in a row than 3 to make the SB.

I was not saying it was the wrong call just thinking why not punt and eliminate the chance of a block FG being returned for a TD. I am no expert why I asked the question..

You know it’s so quick and I never saw him myself till I looked where you said to look.. and I agree you don’t try simulate a count from that far back IMO he was trying get a teammates attention..

Thank you I didn’t see that, but with him going in motion that to me be more of a signal for the D for someone to pick him up than something nefarious like trying to simulate a snap count.. (it’s loud for the D as well lol) again IMO seems like whining from a team that has lost 3 straight and IMO choked their chances away at a win when Maye had his worse game since week 1.

“Statement wins” for me that’s a “please” anyone who has eyes knows the Pats are at least 1 good off season before they need a statement game.. even in a loss IMO Maye showed he can make plays against a good D and that he is an above average QB (Top 10 IMO) in the league.. that’s all that game showed me.. I don’t see them winning the division unless Buffalo loses games I expect them to win easily.. As for Turnovers that’s been the pats Achilles heal all year.. ( we literally gave the ball right back on the first play after the Bills fumble for example lol) So I think we are pretty much agreeing I just don’t find the win over the Bills as a statement win and more proof that Maye is for real than the Pats are back as a team not yet..
