Bills Beat Carolina...Jairus Byrd-Ball Hawk

-Coast

So, when was the last time the Bills won road games in back to back weeks? How about 2004 when they beat the Bengals and 49ers in weeks 15 and 16. Another ugly Bills win, but a win none the less. 425 to 167 in total yards. 309 to 114 in passing yards, 116 to 53 in rushing yards. 34:40 to 25:20 in time of possession. But the key stat is turnovers...Carolina 4, Buffalo 0. Basically, the Bills won because of two words: Jairus Byrd.

Jairus Byrd is a freaking ball hawk. The dude is ALWAYS around the ball. He had 2 more interceptions and in only three starts, has five interceptions. He is 2nd in the NFL right now in INTs behind only Darren Sharper. When was the last time a Bills player had 5 interceptions in a season? Again, 2004 when Clements had 6 and Spikes had 5...only Byrd has done it in only three games. Both of his interceptions directly led to touchdowns. Byrd won the Bills the football game...I need his jersey as soon as possible.

I will be the first to admit that Fitz has looked less than impressive in the past two games. But, is it any coincidence that Lee Evans has finally made an appearance in this offense since Fitz took over? He had 5 for 75 and a touchdown yesterday and 4 for 68 and a touchdown against the Jets. In 2 games, Evans has 9 catches for 143 yards and two touchdowns. Under Edwards, in FIVE games, Evans had 12 for 159 and 1 touchdown. Fitz isn't good, but he is basically 2-0 and can get the ball to our best receiver. The fact that no one on our offensive line can block doesn't help and the fact that TO is nothing compared to what he used to be doesn't help his cause...but I will say, I do not want to see number five on the football field again unless Fitz gets hurt. He sucks. He is my least favorite Bill of all time and I don't want to see his grill anywhere near under center.

The Bills defense has had 10 interceptions in the past 3 games. That is why they have won their last 2, takeaways. They have played against Sanchez, Anderson and a reeling Jake Delhomme. Next week, Matt Shaub, the leagues 4th highest rated passer, comes to town. They have a good offense and this will be a real test for this team. Either way, next Sunday is a HUGE football game if the Bills want any chance of salvaging their season. Next week is an early November must win football game. If they lose at home, lights out on the 2009 season.

  1. i like byrd. he is a good player. he's young, fast and has a nice ceiling in terms of being a prospect in this league. but as per usual, buffalo fans want to annoint somebody as being the next greatest thing and the new reason for hope for this organization.

    please realize that we have witnessed two terribly quarterbacked games by a rookie and a guy who has something like 18 int's in his last 8 games. you can say byrd was in position on both int's but to use the term ballhawk is just crazy. jake the mistake overthrew a guy by 5-7 yards on the first one and threw behind a guy on the other int that went off a hand. both passes, if thrown accurately would have been big completions and bills fans would wonder where the safetys were on both occasions.

    ballhawks are guys like ed reed and polamalu, guys who make plays on the football by reading plays and taking chances,then take it away, as opposed to having it given to them because they are in position.

    in summary, your byrd boner can be downgraded to a mild stiffy.
