Some negatives today

Taylor can't guard himself, 8 sacks ?? What the F-is the O-line doing ??

Our guys' mouths lost us multiple yards, one might of thought the refs weren't going to allowing the taunting the first time it happened.

Is 1st & 20 our new calling card ??

Kickers looked real shaky, one missed Extra point & limited mileage on punting.

Our 1/4 Billion spent in D-line money looks like a poor investment

Is there a guy named Mario Williams on the team ??

Agree with all of this, and would add lack of discipline (too many penalties) and poor gameplan.

Re: Some negatives today

Ok, negatives.

For his history against the Pats, and the skill level on the defense, Ryan looked helpless against them. The coaching staff was entirely unprepared, the players lacked discipline, and the thing we all knew was going to happen, Taylor was going to have to throw, happened way too early in the game.

For all the "woo!" about Roman's run blocking complex scheme and vaunted running game, it sure came to crap when they ended up passing more than running, and it started awful early for my tastes, but had to because Ryan was so lost on even slowing down Brady.

They've become terrible sloppy regarding penalties, and seem to think, like their HC, if they talk loud enough, good teams will flee from all the hot air and they only have to show up to beat them.

It didn't look like a 40-32 game to me, it looked like the Pats slapped us around like we said we'd do to them, and I'd sure rather see a quiet business like fierce the next time we play them instead of such a great flapping of the lips followed up with humiliation.

Re: Some negatives today

When Taylor was pressured he threw a lot of balls too high or behind receivers. Wood and Watkins made some spectacular catches.

Kept looking at the score when it was 37 - 32 thinking how different it would have been had they made the first PAT and then had a second PAT (instead of a failed 2 pt attempt) That would have put Buffalo at a 37 - 34 deficit.

That's his M.O. Coming out of college. Taylor, along with play calling, cost us the game. 3 unacceptable INTs, 2 stupid fumbles, and 8 sacks for a "mobile" QB is entirely unacceptable.

EJ should be starting.

The line played putrid but Tyrod was at fault on several sacks. The guy held the ball too long, took terrible escape angles, and got strip sacked twice by rushers he could see coming.

Today's game will be the book on Taylor for opponents for the rest of the season.

Taylor was always going to be the weak link on the team. The defense and run game needed to carry the weight, and didn't.

You can't hold onto the ball for 5 seconds. Offensive line sucked but he didn't help them at all. He held onto the ball for too long way too often.

Do you remember the line holding up to consistently create a passing pocket ??

The first missed PAT lead to us going for two on the other two attempts. It changed the game but to me Tyrod's first INT is the biggest game changing moment of the game.

Hard to argue with this logic.
