Rex is cooking up a gem tonight

Buffalo Def. >>>>>>>> BALLIN!!!
— Will Davis (@WillieD_effect) November 24, 2015
Rex is putting together a pretty good defensive scheme vs Brady right now. He understands you're not going to fool Tommy with coverages...
— Donté Stallworth (@DonteStallworth) November 24, 2015
So instead he wants to fool his pass protection. That's the best way to get to Brady and so far it's been working.

Dodge, Duck, Dip, Dive, Dodge...And throw for a first down. #TyrodTimehttps://t.co/JI0j3I3j0v

Don't try to ankle tackle James White.
— NFL (@NFL) November 24, 2015
He will shake and bake his way to the end zone. #BUFvsNE https://t.co/DzNMGKiXDG
Bill is gonna be HOT at halftime... I wouldn't want to be in that locker room. Although I've been there a few times (and got cursed out).

Bill Belichick on the field before the half ... and then Bill speaking to his team in the locker room at halftime. pic.twitter.com/p8g7U1Nrj8

The Patriots are the best 2nd half adjustment team in football, I don't see it getting better for the Bills. #MNF

Why did the refs blow whistle?
— earl bennett (@Agent_Orange80) November 24, 2015
This is what happens when you're too protected as a QB, they blow the whistle early
— Shawne Merriman (@shawnemerriman) November 24, 2015
Refs have been trippin this year
— Torrey Smith (@TorreySmithWR) November 24, 2015
They done messed around and blew the whistle
— Chris Long (@JOEL9ONE) November 24, 2015
Wow.. NFL refs are struggling this year
— Steve Johnson (@SJohnson831) November 24, 2015
Patriots fans booing just because other people are booing
— Sam Dekker (@dekker) November 24, 2015
That’s a perfect case of Refs blowing whistle early to Protect the QB who usually not a scrambler #PatsvsBills
— Leon Washington (@Leon_Washington) November 24, 2015
Huge gaffe by the officials.
— Jay Feely (@jayfeely) November 24, 2015
The inadvertent whistle explanation was covering up an enormous mistake
That call will be talked about for awhile. #Patriots

Such a hard job
I would want Gruden to tag along with me for a job interview. Step Brothers style. Just so he could tell them how great I am.
— FOST (@GeorgeFoster72) November 24, 2015
Gruden would find good characteristics in candy corn. "I'll tell you what. That orange stripe is one of the best I've ever seen, Mike!"
— FOST (@GeorgeFoster72) November 24, 2015
Wow, Sammy Watkins, Wow.

Tyrod's first deep ball not under thrown after hurting his shoulder. Rookie of the year syndrome? #Rosinbagger
— Phil Hughes (@PJHughes45) November 24, 2015
Someone explain why he was ruled in bounds right there..
— Steve Johnson (@SJohnson831) November 24, 2015
How are you two feet away with a clear view and miss that call? I can not! ✌?️ smh
— Swin Cash (@SwinCash) November 24, 2015
If that’s not a catch….I’m done

Familiar script….Rex makes it difficult on Brady, Pats still comes out on top. Goodnight y’all….
— Damien Woody (@damienwoody) November 24, 2015
Still replacement refs or nah ?!?

Here's a better question. So if I'm on my Segway or scooter... I have to be on the road or sidewalk? It must be considered a vehicle? No...
