Yeah, both Fitzpatrick and Henne had huge games.

[cman88]

where has branch been? after 200yards last week he's been nonexistent

[Neurotic Guy]

Much rather they scored there.  Bills will take 2 knees.

they need to give the corners more help...no sense pressing the quarterback when the wr are beating the cornerbacks on almost every play for large gains

[Neurotic Guy]

Howin the world did the Pats lose that TO?

Howin the world did the Pats lose that TO?

Yeah, I'd like that one explained ... I don't get that at all. Huge call.

[Roy H.]

Who woulda thunk it?

Biggest play of the game:  Fred Jackson going down a half yard before the end zone.

[Bahku]

Much bigger win for Buffalo than it is a loss for the Pats, but it always hurts. Thank goodness Tom's got broad shoulders, cuz he'll get the blame for this tomorrow, (Greenberg's gonna be obnoxious in the morning). Blech.

Ochocinco had his chance today to step up and came up short IMO....maybe brady didnt throw to him as much because his lack of confidence in him...but with branch shut down there was no one else he could go to

Ya, that blown catch was a difference maker. SMH, 4 interceptions? Not completely Brady's fault but man that was ugly. Gronkowskis and Welkers beastly games unfortunately overshadowed.

Ochocinco needs to step it up Branch is a good WR, but he gets his possessions based on having a good rapport with brady and knowing where to be at the right times. teams like the bills, jets can shut him down...I dont know if its a case of him not getting the offense yet, or just Brady going to more familiar options that he has gone too many times before....that dropped pass was ugly..but he wasnt targeted much in the game at all and didnt get involved much in the offense despite being on the field for alot of the snaps

oh well, its one game and im sure we'll bounce back vs. the raiders...maybe this is the wakeup call the defense needs

[Mike-Dub]

Meh... Typical Pats loss.  Pats start off on fire go up big, offense stalls, defense allows other team to come back and ends up winning.

Offense should have put them away when the chance and regardless defense should not give up 34 points, 31 should be enough points scored to win the games.

[Mike-Dub]

Wow ... not a lot of Pats fans out there. These game threads are the busiest on the blog during hoops season ... I was hoping the football threads might show an improvement during the lockout, especially with a bit more time put into the set-up. (Mostly talking to myself last year, but I don't even have the time for that now. Oh well ... go Patriots!

I don't like to message through the games because it distracts me and I don't have the option because I have to watch most of the games on my computer anyways.
