Absolutely gross performance, I don't even care so much that they lost but to play that awful is inexcusable. 3-1 in Brady's absence is about as good as I was hoping for regardless.
Did not watch the NFL yesterday as too much other stuff going on.
What happened to cause New England to get shut out? Did they just lay an egg, or did Buffalo play really well?
Brady returns next week.
just all around suckage. Notable were many penalties. Bunch of penalties were not accepted by the Bills too. Even Gostowski missed a field goal well within his range. It appeared that they mailed it in on offense, defense, and special teams.
Looking good today as expected, it was nice to see Gronk get out there and look healthy. Also finally we got to see how great it is to have have both Gronk and Bennett lined up together, it was only Cleveland but nice W with Brady back in action

2 Tight ends working pretty good , Reminds me of when we had that other guy. Hopefully Bill can keep Bennett from murdering people so he can stay on the field.
Walker Proof Digital Album Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......
That was the quickest first half of any game I can remember and they looked awful or at least the O line did anyways but Brady &Co came back and got it done. The revenge tour is on!
I thought they could have played better but a win in Pittsburgh is a win, if Big Ben was playing I think they might have lost but whatever I will take it. Gostkowski might need to be cut if he keeps missing xtra points though

I love that they just systematically dismantled the " Jills" lol I'm shaking my head at them dealing Jamie Collins though, actually I should say gave him away. Honestly if I were a NFL player I'm not sure I would even bother playing for Bellichek, the guy is capable of dealing Tom Brady.
-third round pick in 2017 instead of 2018
-Collins wasn't "doing his job," he was doing what he wanted to do on defense
Yeah, he's really good at what he wants to do, but the Pats' schemes require every person to do a specific thing. So TRUST IN BILL and this is a good move for NE
I do trust in Bill but let's be real here, he is way to overboard with his God complex. It has cost them some big games over the years leaving Brady with marginal at best receivers and bad secondary players.

Also giving props to Thomas for being classy and tweeting that he hopes Gronk is ok and Gronk himself for saying it was a clean hit fair and square which it certainly was. Respect to both players

The officials favored the Seabirds as usual. This needs to be looked into.
Please elaborate how the officials assisted Seattle this week? Are you referring to Da Gronk pushing Kam in the endzone?
Gronk was held and pushed definite PI. And the biggest was the recent debacle right before the half in the Jet game. Horrible reefing. And the Green Bay game several years ago on MNF. That was also Horrific!!
All right! here we go! Good old fashion trash talking! That is half of the spectators delight.
Its nice to see another poster here who isn't anti Seahawks. Oh DIMEMAN, that's Shehawks to you
"And the Green Bay game several years ago on MNF" When was that? did I still have hair?
2015 wild card game, Detroit vs Dallas, look that one up. You are a Cowboys fan yes?

Unless you are only 2...yes you had hair when the refs gave you the game against Green Bay! Nobody....I mean nobody could believe that call! It's not just me everyone is talking about the bad calls in favor of the Seababies.

Oh right, that one. I would have been pizzed if I were a Packers fan, but i'm not. Those were scab ref's who's day jobs were at Microsoft.
Go Hawks!
Oh, Dimeman...so bitter over the botched hold still. It'll pass....at some point.
But, let's be clear on a couple things my fellow poster:
1) That final play is the definition of "letting them play". Contact was mutual between two of the toughest players in the league. Only ONE failed to make a play, and he proceeded to jump up and look for help
2) Everyone in the world is complaining about too many penalties; of course unless you hate a team and you want more and more.
3) A favorite play all the Seattle haters like to point out this year is the infamous Julio Jones player. Let's find the START of that play and you'll see Julio blatantly smack Sherman in the face.

This is fun discussion, it really is.
I agree they should let them play, but PI is PI. I'm not a Pat's fan, but thought it was PI.
I don't hate Seattle...just think they get by with stuff.....that's all. I actually like the coach and some of the players.
If anything, on that last play of the Sea-NE game, I thought it was offensive PI, not defensive. Gronk pushed off.

What I saw was Cam holding and Gronk trying to get free.
His push off was at least as egregious as the alleged hold. Good non-call in any case, imo. Let the players play~we have enough flags as it is, for goodness sake.

Looked not so hot in the first two quarters but got together against that pathetic 49'ers team. Going forward I feel like the playoffs are definitely going to happen but don't think this is a Super Bowl caliber team
Chiefs fan here but it amazes me how little people are talking about Broncos. The best player in playoffs last year was Von Miller and it wasn't really close. Patriots couldn't block him and the Panthers couldn't block him.

Pats fan here , purely in the interest of bringing up a different team , what about the Miami Dolphins? I thought they were a 4 and 12 team but they are doing much better than I expected , they could win the rest of their games this season and go 12-4 .
The Pats defense is sucking big time they could easily lose 2 of the remaining games and finish 12-4
Gronk out for the season is horrendous news, I won't be surprised if his days in a Patriot uniform are numbered. All the talent in the world but gets banged up way too much.
Gronk may soon be in that category of player that should consider hanging it up for his own good. Romo is in that category as well.
I admire these guys' warrior mentality, love of football and recognize that they may play until no team wants them but they shouldn't need to play because they need the money and there is life after football.
"Look up, old boy, and see what you get." -William Bonney.
I'm not liking this Baltimore game tonight, it will be a very tough game. Back on the Gronk topic, I laughed when everyone was talking in the preseason about how unstoppable the tandem of Bennett and Gronk was going to be, it was almost a sure thing one of them were going to get hurt.

Looking at their remaining schedule, could they win out? No rothlesberger on Sunday. Healthy gronk and brady seems to not have lost a step.
George Brett, Roger Clemens and Tommy Brady.
I thought they could have played better but a win in Pittsburgh is a win, if Big Ben was playing I think they might have lost but whatever I will take it. Gostkowski might need to be cut if he keeps missing xtra points though

Talk radio thinks theres something off field behind the Collins move. Maybe he's been beating his wife ?

We might have played better on D if we had Collins..D looked gross
great game!
The officials favored the Seabirds as usual. This needs to be looked into.
I think there were a few drops by Seattle that cost them points . It wasn't as close as the score indicates.
I sure liked the outcome : )
NE wasn't firing on all 8
A small crumb for that terrible call in Super Bowl I'm blocking it out.
Yea we will be fine I hope, also hoping Gronk is ok

Can the Patriots just let kicked footballs alone? Don't touch them. This is an awful prelude to the post season
