The stuttering New England Patriots offence has been unfavourably compared to Taylor Swift ’s music career after they suffered a difficult loss to the Buffalo Bills on Thursday night.
The Bills were simply superior to their division rivals and dealt the Patriots a killer blow to their playoff hopes in the 24-10 win at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough. It was Buffalo’s third Thursday night win of the season, becoming the first franchise to achieve such a feat after victories over the Los Angeles Rams and Detroit Lions earlier in the campaign.
The win takes the Bills to 9-3 on the season, while the Patriots are left with a 6-6 record. It is now highly unlikely that head coach Bill Belichick will lead his team to the playoffs for successive seasons after they reached the postseason last year before they were dumped out by Buffalo.
