What a bit of Terry?

This time, world champion, and there ain't nothing you can do about it. What's up, everybody? Welcome into Tom Carrey's Patriots Talk podcast. It's the aftermath.

0:28.6

Joined as always by Phil Perry and Phil, we are in the aftermath of a Patriots lost to the Buffalo Bills that kneecaps in many ways their chances for winning the AFC East.

0:39.3

Quick and brief, 27 second response from you to that development.

0:45.0

This is what happens when you go up against a great quarterback who has a great day and you play poorly.

0:57.6

You needed all three of those things yesterday for that game to turn out the way it did. Kyle Van Ney addressed some of this after the game. Here's Kyle Van Nuoy and then we're

Has Matt Jones hit the rookie wall?

2:02.8

Did we generally overrate them during their seven-game winning streak?

Patriots did to themselves. And this loss of the bills, as you referred to, and it's losing to
