At one point this season, the were 4-1 and fresh off of a beatdown of the in Week 5, and all signs pointed to them having potentially turned the corner in 2021. They've since lost four of their last seven games, including to the , and only two weeks after being boat raced by the , they've now lost their second AFC matchup in a row -- this time to Bill Belichick and the visiting at Highmark Stadium on Monday.It was a game that featured gale force winds and all that came with them -- from knuckle curve field goals to an outright refusal J.J. Koski Jersey from Belichick to let rookie first-round pick throw the ball. Even with Jones finishing with only two completions on three attempts for 19 yards and no touchdowns, Buffalo's Sean McDermott still couldn't find a way to grab a win.But while he's taking his medicine for the lo s, he wants everyone to dial down the 2021 coronation of Belichick."Let's not give more credit than we Terrell Burgess Jersey need to give credit to Bill Belichick in this one," McDermott told media after the 14-10 lo s, via . "Whether it was Bill or anybody else, they beat us, right? But you sit here and you tell me when we start with an average starting field position of the 40-yard line and he starts with the 23-yard line -- I'm rounding up in both cases -- and we were 1 for 4 in the red zone and they were 0 for 1 in the red zone? You give me that ahead of time, I'd say I like my chances. I like my chances. "I don't think, with all Buddy Howell Jersey due respect, it's not a Bill Belichick-type thing. It's what are you doing with the opportunities you got? What are you doing with the opportunities you got? We turned the ball over on the plus-30-something yard line. Sloppy football."Sloppy football. I'm very comfortable in that situation."The Bills were able to take advantage of one of the biggest mistakes of the game, made when Belichick asked to return a punt that ended in a muff off of his helmet and into the hands of Buffalo, which then scored shortly after on a strike from Josh Allen to wide receiver ; but that was the one and only touchdown the AJ Jackson Jersey Bills would get. And, to McDermott's point, the Bills won several statistical categories on Monday night -- e.g., third- Landen Akers Jersey down conversion rate, number of offensive plays, fewer penalties, number of first downs -- and none of it mattered in the end. Things don't get any easier this coming week as the Bills travel to take on and the , with another matchup against Belichick and the Patriots looming on Dec. 26, so the sooner they can cure whatever infected their mojo in Week 6 and beyond, the better. Currently sitting at 7-5 on the year and falling further behind a surging Patriots team, it's either go time for Buffalo, or go home time.
