New England Patriots cornerback Carlton Davis took issue with a penalty he received on the Buffalo Bills' go-ahead scoring drive on Sunday.

While Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel calls for consistency by the referees, he says it isn't the reason why the team lost to the Bills.

Despite players' frustrations over crucial fourth quarter penalties that led to Buffalo's comeback, Mike Vrabel refuses to blame officials for Sunday's loss.

Patriots cornerback Carlton Davis was frustrated with the late flag by the officials in the fourth quarter of Sunday's game against the Bills.

Did Josh Allen throw shade Stefon Diggs' way after the Buffalo Bills beat the New England Patriots in Week 15?

Vrabel also discussed Josh McDaniels's play-calling and the Hall of Fame candidacies of Bill Belichick and Robert Kraft.

Patriots coach Mike Vrabel opened up about his message to the team after Sunday's disappointing loss to the Bills.

But Allen and Buffalo were undeterred. Ray Davis had a huge kick return to open the second half, and Allen capped the drive with a 4-yard touchdown to Dawson Knox. Then, the maligned Buffalo defense, shredded throughout the first half, got a three-and-out, and the Bills marched down the field again, with Cook powering in from 3 yards out.

The New England Patriots squandered a 21-0 first-half lead to Buffalo and will seek to rebound in their Week 16 SNF matchup against Baltimore.

One other penalty that didn’t count due to it being off-setting - Rhamondre Stevenson’s third quarter matching unnecessary roughness flag with Buffalo’s Matt Milano - didn’t sit well with Patriots coach Mike Vrabel.
