Bills' 'sloppy' play vs. Patriots leaves work for postseason
‘”I thought we played sloppy in the first half in particular, and then just overall we’ve got to clean some things up,” McDermott said. “Second half was a lot better, and [we] controlled the line of scrimmage offensively and defensively with the takeaways.
