12/14/2025 GAMEDAY Bills at Patriots* Post Game Game Thread AFCE Battle

[Ralonzo]

Does anyone pay attention to Magnus Carlsen? Current World #1 chess player. He trolls grandmasters by playing absolutely stupid openings and/or sacrifices just to come back and crush them anyway.

 

In his case it's probably more to do with, yeah he's just that good. Allen probably is toward that level. I don't think the rest of the organization should be using that strategy isasmuch as they have any control over it.

And the Ravens won and looked good, so hopefully they beat the brakes off the Pats next week. I want them to start doubting themselves…

I hope Baltimore beats the pants off of NE

[notpolian]

Great win.  Got to clean up first half game plan and execution.  We may see this team again in a few weeks.

[YoloinOhio]

Ofc it is. He’s the 🤴

It wasn't the run D was gashed twice. Stat munchers will see it as bad run D but tbh bad play in the 2 plays. To me rather see that then the Pats run D giving up 6 yards a rush to Cooks consistently.

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.

I know the run D stats look awful. But I didn't feel it was a disaster all around. A couple of miscues here and there that need to be corrected, like Epenesa overpursuing badly, that play was going nowhere.

 

I also think the rookie Hairston is still looking for a piece of his supporting equipment

[Ray Stonada]

What a game for the ages. Josh Allen is in my opinion the best player the Bills have ever had.

 

Those of you who call games over in the first half: stop it.

 

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

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.

 

I don’t see it. I thought Husseys crew was on point and fair. Hochuli was his usual overofficious self, wanting to put his “ stamp” on the game. Didn’t see any ticky tack stuff out there. Clear fouls were flagged as they should be.

I saw him show up extremely late to a match where he only left themselves 30 seconds on the clock in speed chess lol

 

And won

If the team wants the flowers for the second half then they gotta take the tomatoes for the first half too.

Pretty sure the only thing that matters is the final score.

[schoolhouserock]

Wow, just wow.

 

Such a massive difference between the two halves.

 

Can McD and his staff please figure out what it is that is making the second half of these games so much better and just lean into it? Please?!

Pats forum blaming officiating.  So typical of Pats** fans  I'll say it again...***** OFF Patriots!

 

 i read one Pats fan say , " you cant complain about the refs, they gifted us a TD in the first half"

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

 

ALLEN won this game.

Does Allen coach the defense?

It's not always about stats. 

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.

How come we didn’t get any close-up shots of Kraft in the second half? That was a little disappointing. 

Can't stand that prick!

Didn't he invent the Bong Cloud too? I'd betcha if you built a time machine, Carlsen would beat Paul Morphy, and handily at that.

Leave Sooner alone.  He's trolling.

He was toying with them, playing with his food. You're that good, you let the prey think they're getting away before ending them.

Allen puked when the pats** took the lead back? I missed that!  LOL  so awesome!

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