Tyrod Taylor: Uncertain for Week 12
Thinking you got them on the ropes, but at the end of the day they find ways to win and that’s what championship teams do. Watkins scrambled to get out of bounds and appeared to succeed which should have left two seconds on the clock for one final play. They also benefit from having some of the best coaching staffs in the National Football League, which is suddenly making the possibility of a flawless season a plausible one. Moving forward I expect him to experience a drop off in production as he continues to lose weapons every week.
Brady was not listed on the Patriots injury report on Wednesday and was a full participant at the team’s walkthrough. Why Rex Ryan hasn’t been dialing up the kind of pressure we saw against the Patriots escapes me.
“You try to look at the defense and put your guys in an opportunity where they can be successful”.
Tom Brady took an average of 2.45 seconds from snap-to-throw against the Bills, his highest of the season.
Shortly after that, the Bills LeSean McCoy had a 27-yard run for a touchdown, tying the game at 10. We’ll see how he responds in a tough matchup against Denver before really panicking.
During a tightly contested game with AFC postseason implications (and an undefeated season on the line in late November), the MNF crew had two rough moments, the second of which ended the game in controversial fashion.
The Buffalo Bills have Tyrod Taylor dealing with a shoulder injury heading into Week 12, but the quarterback is expected to start for Rex Ryan this weekend. I’ve been on Watkins a bit, and nothing I saw last night is changing my mind. “I hope I am wrong, but I don’t see it happening”. White could be earning more playing time as the Patriots prepare for a playoff push. People have screamed at me that I’m an idiot about this. Taylor was not sharp, and his inability to utilize the middle of the field is becoming a problem.
But a whistle blew and, after a long meeting, the play was blown dead after 14 yards – and Ryan got a sideline penalty for 15 more yards.
One of Brady’s favorite targets, tight end Rob Gronkowski, remains the biggest threat. Watkins was also shaken up on the play, but returned. This has become a joke.
Personally, I think that’s irresponsible and downright squirrely.
With the ESPN crew in for Monday Night Football, Patriots fans, of course, couldn’t resist some signs mocking and sports radio jeering for what they have perceived as unfair coverage during Deflategate.
“He likes me, I know that”, said the coach, who was 4-9 against New England as the NY Jets coach before getting swept in his first season with Buffalo. Not anymore. The Bills now rank 25th in punt returns, and 31st in kickoff returns.
Defensive end Mario Williams’ status is uncertain because of a foot injury. It doesn’t have to be pretty, but they are coming out with the win.
Why is it that the Chiefs always seem to be involved in one of Buffalo’s biggest games of the season?
“We are going to do anything it takes to win the game, whether we have to run the ball or throw the ball”, receiver Brandon LaFell said.
The Patriots were clearly screwed over by the play, but then the Bills got screwed over by the enforcement.
