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. 

He seemed chipper enough after the game leading a prayer circle or whatever, but I don't know if he talked to the media or not.

Diggs? Disappear when you need him?

 

You don't say!

Instagram has them blaming the refs

Maybe he still at midfield watching the score board....

Henderson

I conflate the names of those two all the time!

Kudos to our secondary - what a job, without Benford.

 

Pass rush showed up a bit, too.

On NE forums they are talking about how he disappeared during the game and you can't have your #1 WR do so little 

 

Sounds familiar...

he gave Rousseau a playful little shove when the players were all at midfield dapping each other up after the clock hit 0:00.  It was totally friendly, but for a second I thought he was having a meltdown… lol

💯.   Some fans still cant grasp this.  What would this teams record, or McDermott career record, without Allen?

 

ALLEN won this game.

 

Hmmm? 

Last time I checked the offense was stinking up the first half when the defense needed some longer drives to figure out a way to stop their running game.

Both sides sucked in the first half and football teams have 11 guys on offense and the defense had to get stops to allow the offense to catch up and overtake the Patriots.

I am a huge Allen fan, he is our franchise QB and he absolutely raises the play of those around him, but I am not sure that takes like this reflect how Allen would feel about his team and the players around him.

BTW Ravens beat Cin 24-0 today and look dangerous again.

 

They play NE next week so the division could still be there 

I think we’ll probably pull even with them next week but we still need them to lose to Miami/NYJ to get a game ahead in the standings or wrestle the tiebreaker away

Unfortunately, that games doesn’t matter. They still need to lose one of the other two.

It would allow us to lose to the Eagles and still have a chance.

I'm as harsh of a critic on McD. Allen was fantastic in the 2nd half. But no way can you not give the defensive coaches credit for this win. They made adjustments and out coached the Patriots. I believe in giving flowers when they are deserved. 

The defensive adjustments contributed to the win.  But the win was almost entirely the result of an offense that scored 5 straight TD's after the porous D let up 24 points in only 5 NE 1st half drives.

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.  

No they are definitely are not good but we have 3 TE’s, a slot and RB’s capable of catching the ball.  Why we don’t go heavy (run) pound it and go RPO / PA more is beyond me.

 

I absolutely loathe those short behind the line of scrimmage swing passes.

The amount of time Maye had on the final 4th down sent me into the stratosphere lol

If Baltimore wins it does nothing for us. It only matters if the Jets or Dolphins beat them. The Patriots could win and as long as we win and they lose to the fins or jets... We win the division. 

 

Tying their record does nothing 

Have you seen the Jets and Tua in cold weather?

If you got called to the podium after the game you're not allowed to turn it down at the NFL level 

 

You have to so if he didn't speak at the podium then he wasn't asked

He took pics with a bunch of Bills players with a big smile on his face which should go over well with the mass holes

Maye is very good.He didn't lose the game for the Patriots. The MVP selection is mostly a popularity contest. 

 

I guess I just disagree, I think Maye missed on a lot of chain moving plays.  They couldn't move the ball through the air.  

[Heels20X6]

Bad week for Boston.  Guenther makes John Cena tap and then Josh Allen makes Drake Maye tap. 

[Best Williams Available]

Hell of a win. This is not a perfect team and they have warts but they fight and claw.

It's clear as day this team wins because of Allen not because of coaching

Takes like this make me sad. You are not even trying to see things objectively.

 

McDermott completely outcoached McDaniels in the second half and Brady called almost a perfect game (again).

 

Allen is amazing and was the main reason we won. But this constant bashing of coaches and Beane is silly.

 

Smh
