I mostly agree he got crowned early but he’s definitely better than Mac Jones to be fair to our resident pats fans here haha 

 

We don’t have to be fair on a Bills’ fan board.  Planting the seed of doubt in a Boston sports fan is one of the great joys of spectator sports.

Vrable still out coached Mcdermott, however he didnt have an answer for 17 when 17 went Superman mode and 17 won the game, not Mcdermott and Vrable didnt lose the game, 17 won it.

 

Vrable has the better overall roster and was at home playing the most meaningful game that Pats have been in for years.  And he lost.  I'm not sure in what way he outcoached McDermott.

Have you seen the Jets and Tua in cold weather?

I laugh but the Dolphins running is really doing something special. I think the dolphins actually matchup better against the Patriots than us.

Josh should be MVP fav after today. What a performance again.

[Miyagi-Do Karate]

Insane plays:

 

1) 4th and 2 bomb/PI to Shakir. Can’t believe it was thrown and caught.

 

2) 3rd and goal from the 15, and we score a TD with a bullet from Josh.

 

3) Tre pick. Unreal coverage and catch.

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.  

That’s exactly right.  He was not very good today, and while I would not go so far as to say he lost the game, he certainly did not do his part to win it.  He looked very much like an inexperienced second year QB in that second half.  Ordinary.  It is an absolute joke that he is even in the MVP conversation.

Mike McDaniel owes Vrable a late season upset that costs him the afc east.....Vrabel did it to mcdaniel and the dolphins on a monday night in december two years ago allowing a certain team from orchard park to still have a shot.   

 

its mcdaniel's time for payback.

Great reminder.  The Pats had a few of their own, including that Boutte grab and Hollins skying for a catch.  But man is it great to see our guys make those kinds of plays.

I was gonna have an aneurysm or heart attack after watching that Fitst Half.

 

Cid the best thing possible, but leaving… literally to drive back a Heart Holter Monitor at Half Time to the Cardiologist’s Office.

 

Then listened to WGR as they captured the Unicorn go wild again and beat the worst rated Red Zone D for 4 TDs! 
 

delightful.

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

This is honestly pretty huge and doesn’t get talked about enough…we’re much more than likely doing our part if we don’t have to worry about the eagles game and it applies some pressure to NE

[boco357]

Ha their fans are blaming refs....hahahha

Does Allen coach the defense?

No he scores which saves this team from losses

Look, if Allen is the Bills QB the Bills dont win today, period!

The Bills will need to get better this offseason …because the Patriots are going to..

 

will the Patriots lose to either the Jets or Dolphins ? Not feeling it unfortunately…

Until they have to pay Maye coming off the rookie contract and have to make tough choices like the Ravens, Chiefs, and Bengals did.

Agreed. Two great catches by the Pats, and Henderson’s last TD run was 100% him making a minus 5 run into a 60-yard TD. 
 

But I am glad our guys are making high level plays too from time to time!

One guy who’s been an unsung positive: Ray Davis. Dude is taking the opportunity he has, on kick returns, and doing something with it.

 

Curtis Samuel award for a guy it seems we’re better off without: Josh Palmer. Laughing off the false start on third down told me he has no intensity or recognition of the occasion.
