  1. The EJ lovers are funny. They have some weird emotional investment, and search for any way to distort the truth into painting a picture of EJ somehow being a viable QB. He'll never start anywhere except Buffalo, and will be lucky to latch if he can latch on as a backup somewhere. Most likely out of the league before 2019.

     

    DON'T STOP

    BELIEVING

    HOLD ON TO THE FEELIIIIIING

  3. The truth is:

     

    Early expectations were too high.

     

    Taylor is new. McCoy and Williams are new. Harvin and Clay are new. Ryan and Roman and Thurman are new.

     

    Things are going in a good direction. There's a good core of players on this team, and some good young talent.

     

    They just aren't ready to be a playoff level team yet. They will look great some weeks, and leave you scratching your head other weeks. Everyone wanted them to be a top AFC contender right out of the gate, and those expectations were unrealistic. It takes time for all these new pieces to come together and gel.

     

    They will be OK in the long run. The upcoming schedule is favorable. If they can stay at .500 through the growing pains they will be in good shape for a late WC run, and even if it doesn't happen this year they are building something better than what they've had for the last decade.

  4. The Bills didn't lose because Tyrod didn't play well. He had his mistakes but the Bills scored plenty enough points to win.

     

    The Bills lost because they are supposed to have this great defense yet Brady came in and torched them for 500 yards anyways.

  5. He knew they couldn't run against us, and he didn't even try to - about 60 passes and 10 rushes.

     

    Our corners weren't able to jam up Edelman coming off the line, and we don't have anyone that matches up well against Gronk. He gameplanned to exploit that and succeeded.

     

    Our defensive line was supposed to overmatch the young depleted Patriots line and create lots of pressure, and failed to do so. If you can't get consistent pressure on Brady, you can't win. Belichick had the right blocking schemes and often had the ball coming out of Brady's hand so fast that the pressure never got a chance to develop.

     

    Gotta give Belicheck credit, they had the right gameplan.
