Some positives about today...

we already know that Shady, Sammy , Harvin and KW are good players, the fact the played well should be a given, not necessarily a positive. With TT, you are missing the fumbles, 8 sacks(not all his fault), poor choices in the pocket not to avoid hits, and the interceptions were high passes. Few, if any positives in todays game in my opinion.

I believe all of those fit in with the "atrocious first half." Also, maybe you don't understand the point of a positive thread.

I did not like the defensive scheme at all. From what I could tell (I was in a bar down in D.C, so I had no audio), Rex Ryan wasn't blitzing, was only rushing four, and at times three. Bill Belicheck says he looks to take away a team's primary weapon...looks like Rex did his job for him.

 

Other than that, I'm still firmly in Tyrod's corner. He sailed a few, but what quarterback doesn't? I'd also like to see more discipline. Do they really need to give Brady 140 yards? I can forgive things like holding or off sides, but the personal conduct penalties are tiresome.

This team is good enough to beat any team in the league. Rex needs to understand his personnel and maybe turn on some tape from last season to show how to be better against Brady. Unlike his Jets, the Bills can get to Brady rushing 4 most of the time. They need to tackle after the quick throws better and get them off the field. As the game changes, then blitzes come in and maybe you get a turnover or two.

agreed. The team and coaches were mentally and physically beaten. I will eat crow on the Pats offensive players. I thought it was Brady, gronk, Edelman. They all played well and made huge plays despite not being "big time" talents. Like amendola and dion Lewis. Credit to their coaches. As far as their OL, Brady just gets the ball out s fast. He's a witch. That isn't the case with most teams we play.

Bad loss, but hey.

 

1- Tyrod, with an atrocious 1st half, came back out to play. 2 picks were WR deflections, that both could've been caught by his WR's. Great ball to Sammy. Ran well, avoided hits. Good scramble and pass to Woods.

 

2 - Rex Ryan. I know, you're all gonna think I'm crazy, but Rex is one of the major reasons we were still in that game in the end, IMO. The rivalry and smack talk angle was played up so much, I think this had a factor in BB calling so many pass plays at the end. One of those led to the fumble that got us back in the game. He was still brutal in his gameplan today, but this is a positive thread, so get off me.

 

3 - Shady ran pretty well both on the ground and after the catch. Made some good plays.

 

4 - Sammy flat out burned his defender on the TD. Good play, even if his defender kinda stinks.

 

5 - Percy Harvin is appearing to be the favorite target of TT, had some good catches and the vet presence to get OOB.

 

6 - Darby was okay. Gronk went off, but he made some plays defensively.

 

7 - KW was the best player on our D-line again this week, and it wasn't close. Anytime there was pressure, it was him. Maybe everyone else is doubled, but he made some plays.

 

To me, the biggest positive was that they never gave up, they kept fighting.
