Based on two games this past weekend, I don’t know what defense and special teams units to feel sorry for most – the Bills or the Falcons.
Buffalo’s defense and special teams units put on a show against the Cowboys Monday night, intercepting Tony Romo five times, returning two of those interceptions for touchdowns, and returning a 103-yard kickoff for a touchdown. Yet because of Buffalo’s sorry excuse for an offense, the Cowboys still won on a last second 53-yard field goal by Nick Folk. I realize the Bills special teams unit muffed up the onsides kick at the end of the game, but they should have never been in that situation to begin with.
Bills defense/special teams unit: 21
Bills offense: 3
Cowboys: 25
On Sunday against the Titans, the Falcons defense returned a fumble for a touchdown, caused another fumble on a punt, intercepted Vince Young three times and blocked a punt late in the fourth quarter to give their offense a chance to tie the game. Yet, because of Atlanta’s sorry excuse for an offense (which had an interception returned for a touchdown by the way), the Titans still won 20-13.
Falcons defense: 7 points and five gift-wrapped opportunities
Falcons offense: 6 points and allowed 7 points
Titans: 20
Vote now for which offense screwed its defense worse!
