North Buffalo Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 (edited) The Patriots looked awful against the injured Forty-Niners. Cam Newton was clueless. Garapolo another former Pat QB, played decent with a strong running game. More importantly the Patriots are without a bonified quarterback and look out they are 2-4. The Pats couldn't catch a cold in this game. On the flip side, Brady still looks like Brady granted with a much better team... but he is throwing darts. I didn't/don't want to gloat too soon and I suppose the Pats could turn it around, but wow how the mighty have fallen. Any thoughts and observations on how bad they are? I guess we will see next week. Edited October 26, 2020 by North Buffalo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Locomark Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 Watching that game all I thought was ....uh oh Belicheat won’t get beat 3 games in a row. We better be prepared for every wacky blitz, trick play , and punt blocking formation in the rule book.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punching Bag Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 It is more than Br*dy for large part of their defense took a year off. It does appear that Bellicheat is in conflict between picking earlier in draft and winning games but I think at this point he has enough excuses that he can tell himself it was not me and next year will be better. 1 minute ago, Locomark said: Watching that game all I thought was ....uh oh Belicheat won’t get beat 3 games in a row.

And Bills need to need to get control of themselves and have better walk throughs on plays. Less movement and more getting to line of scrimmage early so those in booth can help on things like formations. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billsatlastin2018 Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 A fellow Bills’ fan and friend of mine said the following, a few hours ago... ”Bills win next week, we will win division, three games up on Pats. I was very happy today, we got some players back. We were sloppy but that is our third win on the road, hard to do in the NFL. We never punted once. Both Bills and Pats have brutal schedules.Bills next two games home to NE and Seattle, which makes NE a must win. Think we will be favoured by four or five. I am liking NE QB situation. I have lost to Brady too many times. I will wait for the Bills to hopefully beat Patriots next Sunday before I get excited If pats win that game, they are one game back. You guys have counted them out before. Go bills “ Exactly. This is a massive, Division winning game, for the first time in a generation! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Success Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 There is nothing to fear about the Patriots anymore. Our only hurdle is psychological, after 20 years of domination. But the Bills have the better team, the better QB and the better future. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coffeesforclosers Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 (edited) San Fran ran the ball all over Foxboro, for almost two hundred yards. They attacked the edges of the pats D, so that NE was breaking out their 6-1 front from the Rams SB to try and hold contain. Didn't work, but I don't think the Bills can threaten that like SF did. Now if the plan is to go into Foxboro and throw the ball 40 times I'm worried. Because that's when you'll see every wonky disguised coverage, fake look/trap and blitz BB can think of.

Big C Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 Cam looked like he did last year before he got surgery. I hope he is OK and didn't come back too soon. That said, the Patriots are absolutely the worst they have been in a long, long time, and I don't think it is entirely because of Brady leaving.

Sammy Watkins' Rib Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 OP, ask me same time one week from today. Until then, I'm going to say no and predict that next week we will be complaining about our run defense giving up 260 rushing yards and that little prick Edelman throwing a TD pass on a trick play. And Josh Allen completing only 50% of his passes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mykidsdad Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 Its a strange thing to think, but the Pats may have been looking past the 49ers and to the Bills game. We are the team to beat in the AFC East, and I hope it may stay that way for the next 10 years, but it starts a week from today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BornAgainBillsFan Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 The Patriots have lost to the Seahawks, Chiefs, Broncos and 49ers. Of those teams, the Bills have lost to the Chiefs and have yet to play the other 3. So the rougher part of the Pats schedule has been earlier than the Bills. Until the Bills start beating teams that the Pats lose to, I'm considering them as neck and neck in the division. (And let's not lose sight of the Phins, either. Tua could just make them significantly better. We'll see.) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr.Sack Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 Belichick will def send someone in late to rough up Allen. That’s why I want Moss & Singletary to combine for over 125 this week. Grind out the game, capitalize on Newton’s mistakes & shut down their run game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chandler#81 Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 For the sake of discussion, let’s say we win Sunday. That will give us a winning record in Division play -which is rarified breathing air. Transcribed over 16 games is 12-4. With a 7th playoff team per Conference, -at this time- Pittsburgh gets the lone AFC bye while KC, Tenn & us have a Home game Week 1 on WC weekend. That’s all it promises. The remaining seeding is based on best surviving records. Figure us to have the least favorable Conference record which means the other 2 true WC teams would have to win to get another Home game. Crazy how a 12-4 record has diminished so dramatically in the new format. We once had a 12-4 record carry us Home to the Super Bowl. 😳 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleedbuffaloblue Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 Yeah, never count the Pats or BellyBoy out, but right now they look like only a shell of their former self. The defense starting the season shorthand’s did and Brady not there are key factors, but they still have BB. I’m sure he will bring a game plan to try to keep this game close. We need to counter that. Running the ball and stopping the run will be the keys to this game. No doubt they will try to control the ball with the run and keep Cam’s pass attempts to a minimum. The Bills need to defense the run like they did early in the season. On offense the bills need to pound the rock themselves. This Pats team can be run on. Start early and don’t let up. Then the play action pass game can take over. Go Bills! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it has a lot to do with it though. 1) Brady clearly still has it. He’s balling out in TB. 2) He sets the culture. 3) Cam has looked awful throwing the ball. He has to elevate a poor WR unit and, thus far, hasn’t been able to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niagara Bill Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 The real Newton showed up. He plays like a manic/depressive. If things go right he thinks he is Superman, if not he hides in the dark. I have thought for the past few years he is a cowardly football player. He is afraid to take a hit. Every team in the league saw it. Belicheat thought he could fix it...he was desperate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
