Final Game 15: Giants 38 Bills 21
Hello Bills fans. My one question is where did the team that was playing in the first quarter go? After building a 14-0 lead after two impressive scoring drives, the Bills offense was basically non-existent. Trent Edwards looked very impressive early on throwing two nice touchdown passes. His 42-yard bomb to Roscoe Parrish setup his four-yard strike to Lee Evans. Evans made a phenomenal move to get open for the reception. After their third possession stalled and the Bills were forced to punt, long snapper Ryan Neill bounced on to punter Brian Moorman. Moorman picked up the ball and tried to run with it but was quickly brought to the ground. It seemed like right after that play the momentum changed. The Giants had a short field and scored right away. The lead was now down to 7. After the Giants got the ball back, the Bills defense forced them to punt. Safety Donte Whitner tried to block the punt but ran over Giants punter Jeff Feagles. Roughing the kicker penalty was called and the Giants had new life. On the next play, Brandon Jacobs took one 40+ yards for the score. The game was now tied. Two major mental mistakes gave the Giants two scores and new life. This was similar to what went down in Jacksonville only a few weeks ago. Our once strong special team units suddenly cost us 14 points. You cannot win games with major mental errors like that. The Giants would add a field goal and take a 17-14 lead going into the half. The Bills would take the lead in the third quarter thanks to Marshawn Lynch. After the defense forced turnovers and held the Giants at the goal line on 4th down, Edwards tried to hit Lee Evans on a crossing route. The ball bounced off of Evans chest and the ball was intercepted and taken back for a touchdown. What looked like a promising second half turned into a disaster. The Giants were up 24-21 and never looked back. Our offense sputtered in the final quarter and the Giants returned another interception for the icing on the cake. I thought that Kevin Everett’s presence would have the Bills all pumped up. They came out hot but became cold as the game wore on. Terrible game.
