Frankly, the bills had the one good second-half play by the pats sniffed out and were in position for a stuff. Just a great play by stevenson to recognize the upcoming stuff early and use his speed to break away for the td. Other than that, NE did zilch on offense in the second half.

In a weird way, I am also now going to be a bit worried if we come out strong and have a lead at halftime . . . But I think I'd be OK with it!

No, it's about herd mentality. The voters are like frightened sheep. They'll vote for the consensus no matter what, which usually means the quarterback on the team with the best record. Allen would have to shine even brighter to shake the out of their fear of not being part of the flock, like another six-TD game or two. Even then, it would be the whole flock moving as one. 

Only way Josh has a shot at MVP if he keeps playing at this level and we win out and end up #1 seed in AFC.

Saw that. Then was right out on the field leading a scoring drive after.

Morning sickeness and mood swings 😎

What are they saying? I stupidly left the Patriots bar (my only choice) at halftime when they were lording it over me. God I wish I had stayed. 

 

They said McDermott outcoached them. 😂

Can't stand that prick!

Speaking of which, I wonder how Chris Simms is going to spin this game.

Amazing win.  Never count these Bills out. 

 

I was despondent when it was 21-0 and ready to join the call for Brady's firing.  But I wasn't giving up on the game.  Not with these Bills.  Not with Josh.  

 

Our receivers aren't good.  We can't throw downfield with any consistency.  Our D is all sorts of banged up and our run defense is atrocious even when we're healthy.   And yet we're 10-4.

Kind of an all time historical comeback in terms of importance. It’ll get lost in the McD/Beane hyper pessimism because that’s what we do now, but an incredible comeback and win. 

We are going to be Debbie Downers right to a Super Bowl. 

[Spiderweb]

Absolutely the best possible outcome after to the sickening ball washing bestowed on Vrabel and Pats pregame.....

[Artful Dodger]

Same game plan every week.  Spot the other team two or three touchdowns, then unleash Josh Allen in the second half.

we didn't get the obvious PI on shakir in the first game and then we got it today.  had we got it the first time we would be in first place.  

 

 

John Hussey and his crew are my favorite refs, hope we get them in Super Bowl.

I ***** hate vrabel and McDaniel and all the mass-holes. Just ***** you 

 

And yet if McDaniel wanted to come to Buffalo next year to be a passing game consultant, I'd give him a resounding YES!

Over the 2 games, the officiating evened out.

 

If I'm a Pats fan, I'd have some gripes today.  A couple of ticky tack kinds of calls..

 

But that 1st game was the same the other way.

 

Felt like the teams should split the season series.  I don’t think the refs had much to do with this one tbh…the real huge play Shakir definitely caught with joint possession and the soft dpi was declined.  That’s the way that’s been called all year on the joint possession part of it.  Honestly it was an insane play that will be overshadowed by controversy for some reason 
 

the Coleman play was a pretty obvious impactful jersey grab and that just would’ve brought up a 4th and short anyway.  Also how plays like that have been called all year 

 

they did get a nice makeup call on the hold on the Josh rushing td.  It was an obvious hold but both olines were getting away with straight up murder until that point lol I think I saw a few pats straight up tackling rushers

This team is special. 

 

When it gets messy and ugly and seems hopeless Allen is at his best 

[Mod_Squad_Reject]

Controlled possessions and clock again.

One more thing: Robert Kraft is my least favorite person in sports. Sleazebag. I just love knowing he is gutted right now.

Interesting take. Not saying I like or appreciate the guy in any way. But because he paid for a few rub and tugs or some other reason?

 

 There are countless guys that beat their wives/GFs/kids, rape/sexually assault people, and literally kill people (manslaughter or otherwise). And your main beef is with Kraft?

[BuffaloBillyG]

Anyone know if Diggs spoke to the media after the game? Seems like the kind of game he would "Nope" out of and be out of the locker room before media got there.
