Didn't see the official stat line until later, but how did he only end up with 195 yards passing? Seemed like a lot more than that. Then again, when you only have to throw it 22 times...

They were so far ahead at the half they essentially shut down the passing game and went into running out the clock for the entire send half.

Allen might be better than Nylander

Thats fine. Just dont take it the point where you think he’s better than Varone. Because then we’ll have a problem.

Tim Graham came out with an article about Okposo's hospitalization 2 seasons ago.

I never cared for his contract (still don't), but it's definitely a "root for him to succeed" story.

Josh Allen is a gamer

He was quick with his decisions and it genuinely looked like he was having fun playing

Get him a WR who you know can catch the ball please!!

Benjamin sucks, he bobbles every catch.

Where has this Jerry Hughes been? He was in the backfield all game long yesterday.

Tiger winning was great to see. You can tell he was very humbled by the reactions and Justin Rose is first class.

The Patriots have lost 2 weeks in a row by double digits...is this the beginning of the end? Or should we wait to call that until Gordon gets on the field and Edelman is back from suspension?

5 field goals and 1 TD against a bad Texans team is not the same thing as a rookie QB going into one of the loudest stadiums and beating a team that many had as Super Bowl contenders this year, by 21 points scoring 3 TD's.

Bills were also 17 point underdogs and they won by 21. Has to be the single largest upset in a very long time.

There were a few rookie mistakes along the way, him fighting to not get sacked and keeping the ball unprotected almost resulted in a turnover.

He had a bad deep ball to Foster that should have been picks.

But all in all he played very well.
