If Buffalo hadn't had the bad snap (unforced error) and the missed FG (unforced error) it may well have been 31 points in the 1st Half.

That defense is the worst I have ever seen - Brady is a magician to win 13 with that defense.

It doesn't mean i don't root for that defense or want to see a miraculous change in that defense come playoff time.

it simply means that I have been watching the NFL for a very long time and I've never seen a worse defensive team.

When they get turnovers?  It helps.  It papers over major flaws.  Thanks to Fitzpatrick, Moore, and Tebow for coughing up turnovers.

yes, they pretty much shut up the naysayers.

And for those who don't know it Green Bay actually has the worst defense this year.

The defense was terrible at the start of the game.  They seem to have a poor game plan at the start for the last three games.  They do a great job of making the in game adjustments.  I liked seeing Chung out there.  He and McCourdy solidified the safety position.  There were two questionable calls.  The PI in the first was bad but it was typical for that play this year.  At least the defender turned his head.  The call on McCourdy was a bad call.  He was making a typical Safety play.  Hopefully during the off season some of the "iffy" calls get reviewed and the refs get trained to not make these bad call.  They need to be consistant.  Each week I see calls that should be made and others that are made that should not.  Welker gets mugged half the time and no call.  Hopefully the defense plays more like the final three quarters in the playoffs and not the first quarter.  The Bills made some good plays in the first quarter.  Some of the catches were usually misses but for some reason they fell in.

I felt Anderson sack in 2nd quarter was the biggest play in the game because that is when momentum started to shift

Hey Rusty - you jerk - did you happen to notice that the offense only failed to score 20 once this year? - And only failed to score 20 twice last year - including the playoffs last year?

Rusty -  you truly are ridiculous - and predictable - there is no one who doesn't read the posts on this site who didn't know that you would be here busting on the offense for today's game - and once again giving the D a complete pass -

The defense was abysmal for the 1st quarter - the offense wasn't any better - but the simple truth is the offense bailed this 2nd rate D out of the hole - again - most teams would have lost this game today - because their offense couldn't dig them out of the hole the D made

Not the Pats offense though

Rusty - how can you not see that?

No Rusty - in actuality you are the embodiment of ignorance  - in your zeal to prop up the legend of Bill Belichick as a defensive genius you have incessantly tried to sell to this board the failings of the offense - specifically Tom Brady and Bill  Obrien - setting for them an impossibly high standard of performance - while at the same time tried to sell the board on the "better than the stats" performance of the defense - telling us all how the D isn't really so bad, just look at GB, NO defenses - and in the process setting for the D a practically on the ground bar as a standard of performance

The problem is Rusty - many of us do watch the games - and see what we see - which is an often abysmal defense being carved up like a Thanksgiving turkey - then bailed out by a big lead provided to them by the offense - the D then starts taking chances and creates some turnovers - which you, Rusty, then give complete credit to the D for creating - and then Rusty you offend the halls of logic by suggesting that the offense is responsible for the pizz poor play of the D by causing them to be on the field too long

Rusty - can you do everyone on this board a favor and S*T*F*U about the offense? Come here and stick up for the D if you must but leave the offense alone.......

In Response to Re: Nice job by D today...:


Rusty - I am as big a fan of the Pats as anyone - but that call against Moulden on the first TD was legit - Moulden nearly tackled the receiver before the ball got there - if that was a Pats receiver everyone, including myself, would be howling for the call -

Now the call on McCourty was BS  - should never have been called  - but that wasn't a TD play - the Pats D had ample opportunity to stop the Bills after that call

With The Saints and Packers in the playoffs it looks like only a team that can score a lot of points will win, I am actually liking our chances more. If our d is bad then gb's is a joke...

I agree - I truly think he and KansasPatriot exist to stir the pot and up the clicks on the site

Good thing the Pats give up 4.6 yards a carry. They can always lean on that along with their great pass D.

I really would love the idea of a revenge game - where a hobbled Big  Ben comes in  without Mendenhall and has to try and match Brady. All three Divisional suiters look like a good end to the bad showings of the past 3 years.

Saint's can't stop the run according to you but they are better at it than the Pats. Your a joke. First yards per carry doesn' t matter, than it's total yards etc. Pick your excuse please.
