This thread will be pinned once we're under way.

If you see something happening, please describe the play instead of eg "WOW".

Please describe more of what you see, things that will help other fantasy owners eg Player X is seeing loads of targets, Player Y is running the ball with authority today etc

Remember, not all of us are watching your game.

Buffalo might want to consider covering that Welker guy.

No freaking kidding. Can it possibly be that difficult to make sure he's covered? I know he's good, but you'd think they'd basically try to eliminate Welker and Gronk and deal with whatever their other players get.
 
oof.

tipped pass interception for Kyle Arrington. ball went right through Donald Jones' hands.

It's early, but game over. Buffalo needed to be the one to set the tone early and it was the exact opposite. Couldn't draw up a worse start for the Bills.

 
Dear Pats,

Couldn't we just settled this with some economics trivia or comparing SAT scores?

I don't understand going for it on 4th and 14 there. Surely a long FG is a better proposition.

At least the INT was better for us than an incompletion would have been.

 
Penalties and turnovers against a superior opponent leads to a blow out. F&^K!! A great chance to step up and things are looking grim.

Or IK, if you are going to go for it then you gotta pick up more than 5 yds on the 3rd and 19...if they cut it to something like 4th and 7 instead of 4th and 14 then sure maybe go for it. Lindell has a pretty good leg, no?

52-53 yard FG? I wonder what the wind was like. They may have felt you need TDs to win against Brady with a 14 point deficit...and the prospects of getting 3 wasn't too good.It wasn't a terrible call.

This. Fitz needed to hit someone farther down field. Maybe not 19 yards downfield, but more than 5.

I do actually understand the reasoning. Should have just said that I disagree.And MOP is right that if you're going to do that, then you should do something different on 3rd down to make it more manageable.Edit: Okay, I see your second response. We agree.

I would agree under normal circumstances, but FG's are only gonna' make the Vegas guys happy. They probably won't help the Bills win.

Though, I blame that worthless drive on Eric Wood's dumb!@# chop block. :rant:

Yup. Defensive holding on Barnett and chop block on Wood. You can't do that stuff and beat the Pats.Merriman a total non-factor again so far.

I'd love to see some numbers on how many times the Bills blitz him. Are they using him right, or has he just sucked? I thought he was going to be a quarterback torpedo after watching him in preseason. :mellow:

 
Buffalo can take a punch, period. They showed it lat week, they took the best NE is going to do, time to counterpunch and they have 3 more quarters. Aaron had a funny post but they probably do have the Pats right where they want them.
