Ever since he topped the 10 Damien Harris NFL Draft ,000 career yards rushing mark last season, LeSean McCoy set a "12K or bust" objective.Bust was more like it for the Buffalo Bills running back on Monday night, when McCoy totaled 13 yards on 12 carries in continuing what's been a season-long struggle for the 10th year player."I've had bad games, but this? The flow of the season and everything is bad," McCoy said following a 25-6 loss to the New England Patriots. "I'm 30 years old. I've been playing since high school. This stuff has never happened to me. Yeah, it's tough."McCoy, who has missed one game with a groin injury, has just 257 yards rushing through eight games. That's 20 yards more than he had in his first two games with Philadelphia in 2013, when McCoy finished with an NFL-leading 1,607 yards rushing.What hurts even more is being part of an anemic offense that is doing very little in supporting a defense that limited Tom Brady and the Patriots to scoring four field goals through three quarters."It's tough. And you see the defense out there just grinding, it's so frustrating," said McCoy Damien Harris Buffalo Bills Jersey , who did lead the Bills with 82 yards receiving. "We don't do nothing on offense, and it's not fair on them."Buffalo lost its third straight and dropped to 2-6 in which it has scored just 87 points.As for New England, Brady was held without a touchdown pass for the first time this season. And yet the Patriots secured their fifth straight win and improved their AFC East-leading record to 6-2 courtesy of James White scoring on a 1-yard run and defensive back Devin McCourty returning an interception 84 yards for a touchdown four minutes apart in the fourth quarter.The interception was the turning point.Trailing 18-6, the Bills responded with what was initially ruled a touchdown, when tight end Jason Croom appeared to make a diving, one-handed catch in the end zone. The 25-yard catch was negated when replays showed Croom never had possession.Two plays later, McCourty jumped in front of Derek Anderson's attempt to hit tight end Charles Clay over the middle."Those are bonus points. It's hard to count on those," Patriots coach Bill Belichick said. "It was a big play for us. They were driving in the red area and it turned it around."SUNDAY NIGHT SHOWDOWNWith a win on Monday night out of the way, the Patriots can look ahead to hosting Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers for a Sunday night showdown. It'll mark just the second time Brady and Rodgers will face each other as starters. And Green Bay won the last meeting, 26-21, in 2014."Aaron's one of the best to ever play, so it'll be exciting Youth Drew Bledsoe Jerseys ," said Brady, who finished 29 of 45 for 324 yards passing against the Bills.PATTERSON ON THE RUNWith rookie running back Sony Michel out with a left knee injury, the Patriots leaned on Cordarrelle Patterson to help their ground game. Patterson finished with a team-best 38 yards rushing.White had 15 yards rushing, and added 10 catches for 79 yards. He now has 55 catches in becoming the NFL's ninth running back to top 50 in his first eight games.SPUTTERING BILLSThe Bills have scored just seven touchdowns this season, and two in their past five. Buffalo also hasn't scored a touchdown in the first half since rookie quarterback Josh Allen scored on 14-yard run in a 13-12 win against Tennessee on Oct. 7.Kicker Stephen Hauschka accounted for all of Buffalo's points by hitting 51- and 47-yard field goals.ANDERSON HURTThe Bills might be down yet another quarterback after Anderson was escorted off the field after being sacked with 1:25 left. Coach Sean McDermott couldn't provide any details on Anderson's injury because the player was still being evaluated.The 35-year-old went 22 of 39 for 290 yards passing with an interception and a lost fumble in making his second start in place of rookie Josh Allen, who is listed week to week with a sprained right elbow. Buffalo's only other quarterback is Nathan Peterman, who lost the starting job after faltering in the first half of a 47-3 season-opening loss at Baltimore.BY THE NUMBERSBrady improved to 29-3 against the Bills, extending his NFL record of most wins by a quarterback against one opponent. ... The Patriots have won at least six of their first eight for the sixth straight year. ... The Bills are off to their worst start since losing their first eight games in 2010. ... The Bills have lost seven straight games on Monday night since a 23-18 win at Miami in 1999. For the second year in a row, it appears likely that the New England Patriots will lose their top defensive coach: play caller and de facto coordinator Brian Flores is expected to become the next head coach of the Miami Dolphins after the Super Bowl. With the 37-year old headed to South Beach, New England will need to look for a new man to lead its defensive staff and the top candidate might be an old friend of head coach Bill Belichick.According to a report by NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport and James Palmer, it appears “likely” that Greg Schiano joins the Patriots in what Rapoport describes as a “top defensive role.” As we already wrote two weeks ago, when news of Flores’ likely departure first came out Drew Bledsoe Jerseys Stitched , Schiano will probably be the most-discussed name in this process — even more so than preseason signal caller and defensive line coach Brendan Daly.Schiano, after all, is among the select group of coaches in Bill Belichick’s circle of trust and out of a job since being let go as Ohio State’s defensive coordinator in early January. The 52-year old also comes with plenty of experience, including 11 years as the head coach at Rutgers — where he worked with Patriots defensive backs Devin McCourty, Jason McCourty, and Duron Harmon — and two in the same position for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.Ultimately, however, we will have to wait and see: there is still an albeit unlikely chance that Brian Flores turns down an offer coming from a Dolphins team that is very much in flux at the moment from top to bottom. And even if Flores does leave the club, the Patriots might have other plans. Daly could still be in line to become defensive signal caller. Schiano might “just” join as a consultant/assistant. Bret Bielema’s role might change.No matter what happens, it will be an interesting few weeks for the Patriots — even outside of the upcoming Super Bowl.
