Passing game is really getting bad. Brady gotta figure it out. 

Shakir was wide open for what would have been two TDs. Josh never looked at him. Josh is a mess right now. Once again he lost track of the deep safety on that bad pick. That said, his running saved the game.

Also, late in the first half he not only turned in when he could have gone out of bounds to stop the clock, he also stepped backwards and didn’t take the first down he could have easily made. Diggs was trying to turn it into a bigger play, but we ended up having to punt.  I think Diggs has been underperforming for the last several games. 

Wasn't that the play Shakir held on

As I recall Allen got immediate pressure up the middle forcing him to slide to his left making a throw back to the right both ill advised and very difficult.

That INT was a little more nuanced than you’re makin it sound.  The safety ran with the post route to bait Josh into takin the deep route down the sideline then peeled off the post route.  It was a nice play by tje defender

I've commented on how Josh's left shoulder injury has affected his mechanics and his throwing. It's pretty obvious.

 

Brady made a nice second half adjustment by going to a horizontal passing game with an emphasis on more stationary targets, particularly over the middle.

 

Josh was more effective after that change.

 

 

Left shoulder or not.. he needs to stop throwing off his back foot every throw.

It definitely wasn't an inspiring win and raises serious questions as to how horrifically bad our offense has been the past two weeks.  Seems as if opposing DCs finally have enough video and have figured Brady out.  

 

Without 4 takeaways we don't come close to winning this game, particularly when the game-winner was a pick-6.  

 

Our offense only had one decent drive this week.  One.  And the other 13 of our points were set-up by the D, already in FG range on two FGs, and for a 14-yard drive for our only other TD.

It's Josh. He can do it. Seemed locked on his initial read.

To be fair, you play to the win the game - we won the game, I'm waaaaaay more satisfied that if we had lost 🤣 :beer: 

Yep.  Look at the other games today: 

 

* The Eagles lost at home to Arizona.

 

*  The Rams, the "hottest" team in the NFL got lucky to edge the Giants 26 - 25.  Stafford had 1 TD pass and 2 INT's.

 

*  I'm watching the Chiefs crapping the bed against a Bengal's team without Burrow.

 

The win is all that matters.  Now the Bills need to play a great game next week to do something most of us thought they had no chance at doing - win the division.

There are a lot of really scummy Pats fans.  Online, most of the comments I saw after Allen's injury were "told ya so" kinds of sentiments, with hopes that it would affect him the remainder of the season.

 

Obviously, a small sample - but it's consistent w/ what I see from that crew in general.  After 6 titles - still bitter & petty.

Brady had built up some goodwill before today but just completely burned through that. Very Dorsey-ish performance from the OC. I'll never understand continuing to do the same thing over and over and over when it's not working. You can try no huddle. You can put Allen under center. You can try to just simply things and throw some slants or crossers. There was just nothing today. No answers, no adjustments. If the D wasn't so fantastic and the Patriots weren't so terrible.......

Anyone get a sense as to how DaQuon played?

Thought he looked great for having missed so much time. Jones and AJ in and Miller out was a huge +++

Sorry. An injured left shoulder shouldn’t affect a right handed nfl qb throwing the ball. That’s apologist homer talk

I agree. He’s throwing off his back foot 90% of the time. If his left shoulder was that bad they should not design 10 running plays.  His mechanics are off because his mechanics are off. His ball security is atrocious. He needs to show some maturity or this team is not long for the playoffs.

I'm aware it changes nothing, but to go from #11 to #2 in the conference inside of a month is pretty incredible.

Even if Bills win next week, If the Browns win… wouldn’t they be the #2 seed?  
 

The team played a great game.  But the offense ..Brady and Josh.. need to figure something out.  Maybe some new play designs… something?   But the last 2 weeks have not looked good.  Defenses have figured something out.  Brady needs to adjust some stuff for next week and the playoffs.  
 

Awesome feeling to have this discussion in the afterglow of a 4th consecutive win!   GO Bills!

No because Baltimore won the division, so the best they can be is 5th

Division winners get 1-4 regardless of record. Seattle had a losing record and hosted against a 10  or 11 win WC.
