Nelius Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 Mac Jones was still heaving balls like a crafty 42 year old vet. Defense was terrible, and yet I’m still far more concerned with the offense. 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damj Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 Mac Jones hung 29 on them, including a TD in the last 2 minutes. Shorthanded or not, they were owned today by Mac Jones 3 3 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFan130 Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 Thank you.. Everyone blaming the O. (which yes they were bad) But at the end of the day you let up 29 points to Mac Jones… Embarrassing 6 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheyCallMeAndy Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 (edited) Hopefully I can get this in before this thread gets buried. Bills had their backup 1T and 3T today, and the guys backing them up are a practice squad player and a guy who had been inactive. The lack of NT was detrimental to the DL, you could see it start when Jones went out but losing Oliver was the kiss of death. Poor DTs + small LBers results in what we saw today. I love our small LBers too, but this defensive performance was predictable. All the talk of the offense, but Bills MUST bring in a legitimate NT by the trade deadline.

QCity Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 (edited) Please no injury excuses. That Patriots roster is completely devoid of talent.

Low Positive Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 The defense was given a 3 point lead with a bit under 2 minutes left. All they had to do was stop the worst offense in the NFL 4 times. Instead they gave up a 30-yard screen pass on first down. Damn right they should be embarrassed. 6 14 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Southern Bills Fan Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 The tackling is atrocious. A Swing pass on the first play of the final drive goes for almost 40 yards. It’s ridiculous that all game it’s constant missed tackles 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can’t score zero and three points in back to back first halves and expect to win. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Success Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 I'm naive. I thought we could hold up okay w/ the injuries. This now looks exactly like the defense that lost to the Bengals and almost lost to the Dolphins last year. It looks like the D that folded w/ 13 seconds to go. We're in some trouble. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has been a massive disappointment so far in this scheme. You can only “coach up” so much. Seattle hasn’t been reliable since day one, and Phillips is 340 but plays 290 and always seems to be falling down.

I honestly wish we never even got the lead. I was mentally prepared for a loss, and I was salty about it, but I was prepared and reached acceptance. Losing the way we did, with them marching down the field, and not even holding them to a FG, but giving them a TD?? It's sickening and somehow made this loss even more painful than it should have been. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kkim0904 Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 correct me if i am wrong. I think patriots punted only once or twice whole game. We could not stop their drive which is one of the worst in the league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
