  1. It feels like I've seen a ton of posts saying how badly he played, coming from posters who haven't really commented on anything else. I've been just taking it as a sign of how spoiled we've become.
  2. I thought he was yelling at the guy that hit him, who was chirping at the time. I bet dollars to doughnuts that if you created a chart based on the number of penalties called against the Bills by Hochuli vs the number they draw on average, you would find a very similar result, which is even more damming than W/L, imo.
  3. I had the exact same reaction; just gobsmacked that people could be trying to hang this loss on him. As for the pick, I just though he was a half-second late on the throw; he probably held that one a touch too long before he let it go between the hashes.
  4. He's just coming to the line with a couple options and picking one according to his presnap read. He's typically on the money with it, but last night I have to wonder if the options he had to work with were a poor fit with what the Pats were showing.
  5. Nobody is getting open downfield against those shells, regardless of how fast they are. Trying to squeeze throws into those non-existent windows is just wasting downs and begging for interceptions.
  6. My daughter-in-law was convinced the guy was there with a mistress and just bolted when he realized he was going ot be on camera.
  7. NE was using light boxes most of the night and James Cook touched the ball 6 times in the second half
  8. They got to him with a couple blitzes out of the secondary but the Pats DL only got to Allen 2-3 times in 30+ dropbacks.
  9. Just because he's a big guy that used to play football doesn't make him a meathead. Do you seriously think Bill Belichick would have trusted him in so many different roles on both sides of the ball if he wasn't really, really smart?
  10. The fact that people still call this guy a meathead, not only after watching his well-coached teams, but after watching Belichik trust his smarts enough to use him in about 16 different roles is ........... something.
  11. I disagree. The Pats pushed them around a bit very early but once they quickly settled in they were rock solid. I actually thought it was one of the few games where they were better in passpro than they were in the run game.
  12. They're running shells most of the night; he's not going to throw balls into that coverage just for the sake of doing it.
  13. Dawkins carrying the End 4 yards in shotgun+ a 5step drop is not a problem.
  14. One of the LB's dropped right into the throwing lane to Kincaid (he ended up getting buried by Spencer Brown) or I think he'd have taken it.
  15. Thanks for the clip. That was indeed a gawdawful call.
  16. I think Bosa had a lowered snap count last night; it's not impossible that he got yanked for a while after he lost contain yet again. It was really hard to catch everything Groot was doing, partly because it's hard to pick up numbers in traffic with those uniforms, but he was the one guy that was absolutely a significant problem for the Pats offense last night.
  17. Now that's a loss worth crying over
  18. Why would yet another redundant thread that offers no new information or thoughtful observations not be merged? 🤷‍♂️
  19. All over the field being arguably the best player in a Bills uniform all night long.
  20. Probably. May have been early in the 3rd qrtr.
  21. I thought he didn't catch it clean and was downed before he got a handle on it.
