I find it impossible to root for Robert Kraft. - kingcong39
Yeah, I have a hard time with his spat with Putin. On one hand, it's Putin, on the other, he stole Kraft's ring right in front of him. I don't know who to root for in that one.
All ATL had to do was run the ball 2 more times with 3 minutes left from NEs 25. NE would have had to use their last two timeouts, and ATLs very accurate kicker would have made a high 30s FG in and indoor stadium. NE doesn't come back from down 11 with 2 mins left. Classic case of coaches outhinking themselves. Big choke job by ATL.

Just shows how far away the Bills are. - SABRES 89
Pretty much.
I long for the day (if it ever happens) that both the Bills and the Sabres are like the Patriots: a team that knows how to win big games, and expects to win them.

Of course Belichick would make sure that all 3 TO's were still available regardless. Effin mastermind. G.O.A.T. They needed a little luck though. It was amazing Edelman kept the ball off the turf.

Call it luck if you need to, but what New England did tonight is what great teams do: make plays when it matters the most.

It's both.
We as Sabres fans would be lucky to one day have the team on such a roll that things like an obvious facemask on a holding penalty would offset and a ball would be caught due to one defenders leg and another's arm being in the precise spot where the ball would've otherwise hit the turf.
Hopefully the Sabres will be on that kind of karmic ride.

You could have called a face mask on either player as properly pointed out by Troy Aikman on that play. Yes, there was some luck involved on that play, but all Atlanta needed to do was make one more big play afterwards, and it was nowhere to be found. After the Matt Ryan fumble, they melted plain and simple. There were still plenty of plays to be made after that point and New England made all of them. That's why they won tonight.

Rapport reported Brady is looking to play another 3 to 5 years so I guess football can start to be interesting for a bills fan in another half decade - mattmoulson
Lol at the guy on first take that said Brady is done
His point total is propped up by shots (4 per game, each shot being 1 point), but he's also skewed in PIM since you get points for them and he only has 4 whereas Malkin has 56, Kadri has over 60, and the rest of the top 10 have and average around 20 PIM
