Pre-Season Game 2: Atlanta Falcons vs. Buffalo Bills
The Buffalo Bills dropped a tough one against Atlanta on Friday. Even though they lost the game, there were many positive signs. J.P. Losman had a few nice throws and Marshawn Lynch showed some flashes of his cutting ability. Lee Evans made a fantastic catch on the sidelines for a 36-yard gain. J.P. and Lee continue to develop that chemistry that came on during the second half of last season. Although the Falcons marched down the field on their opening drive, the defense led by Paul Poslusny and Donte Whitner, stuffed Atlanta at the goaline on fourth down. Coy Wire had some serious hits and caused a fumble that landed in the hands of John McCargo. Wire did a terrific job filling in for Angelo Crowell. I guess the switch to linebacker has him pumped. Most of the starters on offense played the entire first half. The play of the night on offense was Trent Edwards hitting Roscoe Parrish for a 10 yard TD. On the defensive side, Anthony Hargove intercepted a pass and took it to the ten-yard line, which led to the TD pass from Edwards. Overall the team played well but I for one cannot wait to see the finished product take the field on September 9th. The major concern I have, as does every other Bills fan is stopping the run this year. I hope McCargo turns out to be the guy that we all thought he would be. Lets go Bills. Can’t wait for the regular season to begin.
