It didn’t matter that the New England Patriots are starting their third string quarterback. It didn’t matter that said quarterback had a thumb injury, and the only other option was wide receiver Julian Edelman. When the Bills go into Foxboro and take on Bill Belichick’s talented roster, it’s always assumed to be a massive challenge.
So far, the Bills have been up to the task. Tyrod Taylor looked like a perfect fit in Anthony Lynn’s offense, the offense clicked on all cylinders, and the defense held the Patriots scoreless in the first half, thanks in part to Zach Brown forcing a Jacoby Brissett fumble in Bills territory.
