All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

Do you think Brady and the Pats were trying to hang 50 on us yesterday?
Do you think Brady and the Pats were trying to hang 50 on us yesterday?
The way they kept going after the Bills even with a big lead, not running the balls, going on 4th and short, etc. It's very telling to me on one 4th and 1 in-completion: Brady had an easier short throw to make but he saw a deep one-on-one coverage (Rambo one someone) and went for it.
Something tells me that Monday night game between these two teams won't be a kind affair for either teams.
Re: Do you think Brady and the Pats were trying to hang 50 on us yesterday?
They were going for Brady's 400th TD pass, nothing more or less. And it nearly cost them.
There were few positives that I can take from this game. Not giving him that pleasure is one of them. The others are Shady, making some effort at a comeback, and not letting that goon Chandler get a TD.
For the record, of Brady's 399 TD passes, 60 are against the Bills. Just let that sink in for a second.

60 touchdowns out of 399 is about 15.04%, which translates to 1 in every 6.65 touchdowns coming against the Bills. This number is pretty bad, yeah. If all things were equal, Brady would have 1 in every 8 touchdowns be against the Bills because we play twice per season or 1 out of every 8 games. If you take into account that the Patriots are pretty much in the playoffs every year, and that they usually go pretty deep in the playoffs, and also that they never play against the Bills in these so called 'playoff games,' this number gets friggin' disgusting.
Re: Do you think Brady and the Pats were trying to hang 50 on us yesterday?
Absolutely they were. And trying to do it via Scott Chandler I might add. Just BB being the piece of **** that he always is. I still crave the day he gets hit by a bus or something.
In fact it cost them. Only reason we made it close was because of the strip sack by Hughes. Had the Pats been killing the clock with runs Brady does not drop back to pass and the fumble never happens. We never come close and the score board better reflects the beat down we were handed down.

I was off one. 61 TDs in 27 games (2.26 per) to go with 19 INTs. To put it into a bit more perspective, the next worst team in the division is Miami with 45 TDs but 21 INTs. He has career QBR of 101 against the Bills.
Re: Do you think Brady and the Pats were trying to hang 50 on us yesterday?
Maybe it's just me, but I think if New England wanted 50, they'd have gotten it, and if they'd wanted Brady to throw for 500 yards he'd have done it. When a Belichick team slips into the prevent, he's lost interest.

Brady needs to send a thank you note to Russ Brandon..."Couldn't have done it without you, guy!", since Brandon has been an integral part of defining the composition of the Bills for the last number of years, a composition that's helped pad Brady's stats (and yeah, I know... he's only on the 'business side' now.... uh huh).
This lowly cart.... it hits harder and has a higher yards
per play average than the Bills' offense!

Ouch, but speaking of positives, and I know it is the first game against them and before Bellicheat gets his game scams together these are always fairly close affairs, I quite enjoyed that this team did not lay down and die. I thought the decision to give up on XPs was awful, and I did not like the pass choices, but overall I liked that we did not give up.

Or, if they had played for a TD for any player instead of trying to force it to Chandler to embarrass us, they would have scored a TD instead of a FG on that drive and had an additional 4 points cushion.
Re: Do you think Brady and the Pats were trying to hang 50 on us yesterday?
It's a Belichick trademark to run the score up on teams so yeah, they would have scored 70 points if they could have and yes they did try to give a TD to Chandler as further embarrassment. The defensive scheme was too vanilla for the Patriots, I don't know why Rex didn't play more aggressive as he practically begged the them to drop bombs on us. They did aided in large part by some questionable penalties by the refs. Belichick is not nice, he's not classy, and he will try to screw you any way he can because he's insecure that he has no untainted legacy outside of his Parcells years.

hughes had a chance to plant his facemask squarely in brady's spine and he went strip sack. i wish he would have hit him. the result would have been the same...fumble, but no brady for at least 4 weeks. that would have made the close loss totally worth it.
