Postgame interview:
On Saturday night, the Buffalo Bills left no doubt in declaring themselves the best team in the AFC East and a legitimate threat to reach the Super Bowl next month.
Buffalo took the rubber match over their bitter rivals the New England Patriots by the lopsided score of 47-17. New England’s rookie quarterback looked like a player in his first postseason as the crowd noise on the road in Buffalo and the frigid temperatures led to some ineffectiveness.
Post game:
After a strong opening drive that ended in an interception in the end zone by the Bills’ Micah Hyde, Jones and the Patriots’ offense could only muster 3 points in the first half.
They added two fairly meaningless touchdowns in the second half, but nothing could stop Buffalo’s onslaught. After the game, Jones met with the media to sadly discuss his performance in his first playoff game.
Press Conference:
Jones doesn’t deserve all the blame for the Patriots’ failures. As a matter of fact, the majority of the finger pointing should be directed at the defense which was horrendous against the Bills.
Still, just as the quarterback of a team often gets more credit than they deserve, that whole concept is a double-edged sword. Jones, as he has done the entire season, didn’t try to escape accountability.
New England needed to have a strong start, and that didn’t happen. They were down 14-0 at the end of the first quarter. The Patriots needed to establish a run game. They failed to eclipse the 125-yard mark which had been a magic number for the team this season. Also, the Patriots turned the ball over twice which has also been a poison pill for New England. All those things mixed together was a recipe for a 30-point whipping.
