12/14/2025 GAMEDAY Bills at Patriots* 1st Half Game Thread AFCE Battle

[SC STATE NUPE]

My Alma mater was down 21-0 in their bowl yesterday and won. I’d like to see us get a quick stop and score at least a field goal before the half… Keep the faith, people!

Have to force a 3 and out.

Down 14 with 2 minutes left.

Who wants to bet McDermott is going to run a passive zone defence and try to limit NE to just 3?

[Donuts and Doritos]

Pass to RBs & TEs

[RichRiderBills]

The difference in this game is the bills need to take risks. They are not going to be able to stop the Patriots offense. So when you're in no man's land you've got to take risks. That means plotting going for it on fourth down. That also means your third downplay should set up that notion as well. 

 

We took risks last week. I don't understand what has changed.

Bills need a turnover ..

Did you rub your lucky rabbit's foot?

Well after his outburst about it before, I doubt Beane is going to sit down with them again anytime soon.  Especially after he signed 4 more WRs after that.

No reason not to keep trying, and telling their audience that 

[billybob71]

Gotta hope for turnovers again, not to confident in them forcing punts

Now someone needs to tell the defense to wake up. 

They've been on the field for 20 minutes while the offense has been on the field for 10.  Think it's the other way around.

I bought two labatts tall boys.  One for the first half one for the second.  They are both gone.

Is Tyler Bass just good as gone? Just wondering.

He's gone for this season for sure, it'll be interesting what the future holds.

[BuffaloBill]

Touchback … on purpose?

Shakirs lack of production is absolutely mind boggling. 

I mean…defenses don’t need to pay attention to anybody else out there.  

[TheWeatherMan]

This team has to be close to allowing the most 40 + yard rushing TDs in a season.  It feels like it’s once per game.

Agree to disagree

our defense and WR corps are not good

Benford & Oliver (occasionally) are our only impact defenders and they are both out

Yes… but I call it something else

Because we didn't use a first round pick on him.

Coleman wasn't a 1st either. But no matter where you were drafted if you are on the field you need to produce something

He was lethal over the middle with Daboll. Shakir's lack of production is inexcusable this year. Makes no sense. He should be catching 100 balls over the middle. 

Agree. Brady's offense is terrible. He doesn't know how to use his WRs effectively
