Retired National Football League defensive end Stephen White breaks down why that was a costly mistake by the Bills. That’s my big takeaway after watching the film.

“Sometimes I think we’ve got to step up in the pocket a little bit when we had some guys open”, said Ryan.
New England’s quarterback is off to a phenomenal start while leading the Patriots to a 2-0 record. The eye in the sky don’t lie.
We know Rob Gronkowski is good at football, and we’ve seen evidence that he’s great at having a good time. After two weeks, the major question mark I had for the team coming into the season, the offensive line, has impressed greatly. That didn’t happen in this case. The Bills have nine receptions of 20 or more yards, which is tied for second in the league. But oh no, the coverage was some old “sit on your heels and try to react” bullshit. They’ve also been unable to pull together a record good enough to grab one of the wild card spots. Normally this would buy a running back a one-way ticket to the bench for the remainder of the game, like Stevan Ridley, but Belichick continued to put his faith in Lewis. His deep ball was never wonderful so the quick passes actually play into his skill set. New York’s defense picked off Luck three times and also recovered two fumbles, unraveling a Colts team who was probably hoping their week one woes were tied to being on the road in a hostile environment after losing to the Bills.
An ass kicking, that’s what!
I’m not delusional, and I haven’t been smoking anything, and I’m not just being dramatic or saying this to get a rise out of people.
“He was just yappin’ at me the whole time”, Gronkowski said. “There are a lot of emotions in the game”.
But through two games of 2015, Brady is having none of that. The more he gets hit, the higher the likelihood for some misfires.
“It was unacceptable”, said Hughes, who had a 15-yard sack of Brady while Mario Williams had one for zero yards.
Tune in to Sunday’s Patriots-Jaguars game on 98.5 The Sports Hub and WBZ-TV – the flagship stations of the New England Patriots.
Ryan might be the Bills new coach, but he’s seen this type of performance from Brady before.
No, the clearest conclusion from the first two weeks surrounds a single player, Brady, and the message, which we should have learned years ago, is simple: Don’t tick him off. “There’s really no plays off mentally for that position”. He understands the concept of what you’re trying to do. Maybe I shouldn’t rag on them since they just beat the Miami Dolphins this past weekend, but let’s be honest, that could be their last win for a while.
I’m a Rex Ryan fan and I am pulling for the guy to do well in Buffalo, but the fact remains that he wussed out Sunday against Brady and the Patriots.
Jaguars coach Gus Bradley knows the challenge that awaits his team this week. “Whether it’s in the run game, obviously he gets a lot of attention for catching touchdown passes, but he does all the dirty work too”. Blount could conceivably get the start however he is old, has a low YPC (yards per carry) ratio and failed his conditioning test in the offseason.
