A couple of those INTs would have been better hitting the ground. When it’s 4th down padding your stats with an INT at the expense of positive yardage is pretty stupid.
“Rookie Bills S Jairus Byrd had the first two interceptions of his NFL career.”
Not true. He picked one other ball off this year.
Whaddya think of the “Sanchize” now, Jets fans?

That’s just DIRTY.
The bills really put forth magnificent effort toward finding a way to lose, but it the end, it just was not meant to be. TERRIBLE clock management on the last drive when with 50 or so seconds left at the 30 yard line the bills decided to sit on the ball and let lindel kick a 46 yarder into the wind, when they could have easily attempted two pass plays to shorten the field goal. How stupid, and lucky.
How’s that ball in your trophy case looking now Jets! hahahaha Stupid is.
