Garoppolo showing good mobility and awareness, but he has zero time to throw. Offensive line is getting killed
FanSinceThe60s 12/28/2014 7:46:27 PM
If Jimmy G. gets killed, who backs up TB12? Just wondering.
Washedashore 12/28/2014 7:46:29 PM
He's going to have to roll out, there's no pocket.
by Jeff Pini via twitter 12/28/2014 7:47:28 PM
Well there's something you don't see in the Pats offense everyday...
Washedashore 12/28/2014 7:48:39 PM
At least they're keeping the Bills off the field.
by Ben Volin via twitter 12/28/2014 7:48:55 PM
Garoppolo looks like he enjoys taking these hits after sitting on ice for 16 weeks
Northfan 12/28/2014 7:49:27 PM
I disagree with Ben that Garrapolo showing awareness. He doesn't know when to throw it away. In spite of some nifty moves, he's not catching the D rush formations.
Northfan 12/28/2014 7:50:47 PM
I'd like to see him on the sneak now.

Horrible spot
by Patriots News via twitter 12/28/2014 7:51:30 PM
Patriots fail to convert on 4th-and-1 and the Bills take over on downs.
by New England Patriots via twitter 12/28/2014 7:51:38 PM
Garoppolo & the Pats go for it on 4th-and-1 from the 13 but can't convert. Ball goes over on downs. #BUFvsNE
by Erik Frenz via twitter 12/28/2014 7:51:38 PM
Eight-yard drive to nowhere ends on a weird 4th-and-1 playcall for a Garoppolo keeper.
Washedashore 12/28/2014 7:51:53 PM
Who called that play? Brady? Geez
Dragon 12/28/2014 7:52:17 PM
Please tell me this isn't our starting O-line?
Dragon 12/28/2014 7:53:17 PM
At this point, 2 weeks off is the last thing this team needs.
Toronto patsfan 12/28/2014 7:53:19 PM
Somone better teach garropolo to slide or brady will be back in there before this game is over!
Toronto patsfan 12/28/2014 7:54:01 PM
And while we're at it, lets get lafell out of there too

Tampa Bay beating New Orleans 20-7. #Bucs are gonna lose the No. 1 draft pick to Tennessee
by Ben Volin via twitter 12/28/2014 7:57:40 PM
And Jags. I don't know RT @jerryn_97: @BenVolin bucs raiders and jets all at 3-13. who gets second pick?
by New England Patriots via twitter 12/28/2014 7:58:10 PM
Danny Amendola with a nice 26-yard punt return to start the Patriots' drive at the Bills' 44-yard line. #BUFvsNE
Toronto patsfan 12/28/2014 7:58:38 PM
Is revis hurt or just being protected for rest of game?
by Ben Volin via twitter 12/28/2014 8:01:24 PM
Strength of Schedule is the first tiebreaker for draft picks. Entering today: TEN .487, TB .491, JAX .513, NYJ .551, OAK .560
by Ben Volin via twitter 12/28/2014 8:01:35 PM
So the #Bucs at least are guaranteed of having a top-2 pick
Washedashore 12/28/2014 8:01:51 PM
6 field goals could win....
FanSinceThe60s 12/28/2014 8:02:50 PM
They'd be within a TD if they hadn't gone on 4th down earlier
by New England Patriots via twitter 12/28/2014 8:03:19 PM
Gostkowski hits his 3rd field goal of the night - a 35-yarder to make it 17-9 nearing the end of the 3rd quarter. #BUFvsNE
by Patriots News via twitter 12/28/2014 8:03:20 PM
Gostkowski nails his third field goal of the day, makes it a 17-9 game with 37 seconds to play in the third quarter.
by Patriots News via twitter 12/28/2014 8:06:42 PM
End of the third quarter, Bills lead the Patriots 17-9.
Washedashore 12/28/2014 8:08:28 PM
Time for Orton to cough it up.

Extra Points: 'Pinto Ron' and Bills Fans Buffalo Their Way to Foxborough bo.st/1H8e677 #patriots
by Ben Volin via twitter 12/28/2014 8:11:10 PM
What a crazy day. The #Chiefs are whopping up on the #Chargers, and the #Browns are up 10-3 on the #Ravens. #Texans fans are going nuts
by New England Patriots via twitter 12/28/2014 8:13:03 PM
Update from the #Patriots' bench: Nate Solder has been downgraded to OUT & will not return due to a knee injury.
by Michael Whitmer via twitter 12/28/2014 8:13:47 PM
Patriots now say Solder (knee injury) will not return.
by Erik Frenz via twitter 12/28/2014 8:15:02 PM
Nate Solder (knee) will not return to the game.
by shalise manza young via twitter 12/28/2014 8:15:24 PM
update: #patriots announce Solder (knee) is out for the rest of the game
by Ben Volin via twitter 12/28/2014 8:16:16 PM
Aw man, Adam Vinatieri missed a 46-yard FG today. His first miss all season
FanSinceThe60s 12/28/2014 8:16:20 PM
Good to hold Solder out. A knee injury could impede his ability to turn around and watch his QB getting sacked.
by Erik Frenz via twitter 12/28/2014 8:17:12 PM
#PlayActionToLaFell apparently is not limited to Tom Brady.
by Ben Volin via twitter 12/28/2014 8:17:29 PM
And now LaFell limps off. Get him out of there and put in Josh Boyce
FanSinceThe60s 12/28/2014 8:17:55 PM
Oh oh, LaFell limping
by Erik Frenz via twitter 12/28/2014 8:18:01 PM
Jimmy Gameday? Jimmy Houdini is more like it.
by Ben Volin via twitter 12/28/2014 8:18:14 PM
Jimmy G has some moves. Kinda looks like Russell Wilson out there, juking defenders
Joe 12/28/2014 8:19:25 PM
I'm sorry but Cannon is horrendous
by New England Patriots via twitter 12/28/2014 8:19:51 PM
Jimmy Garoppolo with the wheels for a 9-yard run - good for a Patriots 1st down! #BUFvsNE
Washedashore 12/28/2014 8:20:35 PM
Jimmy G looks like a young George Clooney... And he escapes again!
