I actually feel bad for the Patriots players, they have by far the worst fans in all of the NFL. Imagine booing your 10-2 team off the field at halftime? Absolute trash home crowd. We rarely see it, since they rarely lose at home, but when they do the fans turn on them so quick, it's literally disgusting. If I was a Pats fan it would be unbearable. They almost got the win too, despite being outplayed, with all sorts of craziness with blocked punts and trick plays. KC held on in a fun game though.
SF vs NO was just INSANE! I only caught the last quarter, but man I love it when games live up to the hype. I don't get how SF gives up that many points though, but it was just one of those games. Kind of like LAR vs KC last year.
A lot of the time a team will win a big game like this and come out flat next week. Guess we'll see. Not sure who SF is playing next week, and I still haven't watched the Seahawks game so I have to avoid spoilers.
As for Ravens vs Bills, not an exciting game but still a nerve wracking one. I had this game pinned as a loss for most of the season - even during this run. The Bills at home are easily one of the best defenses in the league. Unfortunately for them their offense doesn't live up to it, and the Ravens had one of their old school dominant defensive wins. I heard Allen was getting better, so I don't know if this game was an aberration or not. He looked awful on a lot of passes, wind notwithstanding. Like I said, everyone is talking about Lamar, but the Ravens defense is for real.
Offensive play calling was really weird. They didn't seem to want Lamar to take the ball as much (but when he did, oh boy), and passing was bad since it was so windy. Some weird trick plays that didn't work at all, and when that happens they just look bad
I was almost sure they'd blow this one but the D held up, despite the refs giving them like 60+ yards of BS penalties in the final quarter. Seriously, the most ridiculous calls! I know this is 2 weeks in a row complaining about refs, but I rarely do this and it has been really brutal the last 2 weeks. This time it went both ways, but that final Bills drive was just disgusting.
Hope Andrews is OK
Final play of the game, Marcus Peters seems to be working out pretty well
Thursday Night vs the Jets!
