The Buffalo Bills (5-9) fell short on Sunday and lost their 13th straight game to the New England Patriots (9-5).  It was not a very good day for either offense, with the Bills getting only 241 yards and the Patriots getting just 224 yards.  Fred Jackson was one of the few Bills’ players to have a lot of production on offense.  He rushed for 80 yards on just 15 carries, but he did not find the endzone.  Ryan Fitzpatrick ended up with 178 yards, 1 touchdown and 1 interception on 17/25 passes.

The Bills nearly shut down the Patriots passing game, but they did not stop Patriots’ receiver Randy Moss enough.  Moss caught 5 passes for 70 yards and 1 touchdown.  They kept Tom Brady in check, except when he went to Moss.  Brady had only 115 passing yards, 1 touchdown, and 1 interception on 11/23 pass attempts.  Laurence Maroney was pretty effective against the Bills’ run-defense, getting 81 yards and 1 touchdown on 23 carries.  The Bills played the Patriots tough, but it wasn’t enough to end their long losing streak against them.
