San-O Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 After seven games, this is no mistake. League leading at + 14, which is nearly 2x the next best team at + 8. http://www.footballdb.com/stats/turnovers.html Incredible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrbojanglezs Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 This scares me. Once the luck stops and the balls stop bouncing our way will we still get the wins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC Greg Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 This scares me. Once the luck stops and the balls stop bouncing our way will we still get the wins. It's not just luck. Tyrod takes care of the ball as good as any QB in the league. Shady almost never fumbles. Defense puts themselves in great position to make plays. Keep doing this, and we'll keep winning. Especially now that we're starting to have an offensive that can capitalize. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dorkington Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Like another poster said, while it's similar to years past, the difference this time is our defense is also coming up with stops without turnovers as well. Meaning, our defense isn't all luck 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaviorPeterman Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 This scares me. Once the luck stops and the balls stop bouncing our way will we still get the wins. It's definitely a concern because we certainly aren't going to get 3+ turnovers every game the rest of the season. But unlike with the Bucs and Bengals, we actually blew out a team today instead of playing very close to the end despite the turnovers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poblano Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 This scares me. Once the luck stops and the balls stop bouncing our way will we still get the wins.

Rc2catch Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Gotta give a little credit to coaching as well for these turnovers. These guys are ripping at that ball non stop and hitting hard (in the right target areas) Its been an impressive defensive scheme for the most part. Milano comes to mind for his big game today. Play hard, every play. Its been an impressive ride watching them. I for one thought they were doomed and Carr would just light them up all day long.

BADOLBILZ Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 What luck? They are forcing turnovers. This. R.Rich and I were discussing this today..........it's not luck when your defense is playing with it's eyes forward and anticipating being able to make a play on a football rather than just mindlessly trying to blast receivers. It's not luck when you are flying to the football so you can stand up the ball carrier and have extra hands there to knock the ball loose. It's the style of defense..........and as long as teams are pressured to throw the ball more often than run it they should be able to keep winning turnover differentials..........because Tyrod simply isn't going to give the ball away.

One was perfect tackle by Leonard Johnson blasting the ball with his shoulder. One was great tip by Preston Brown and diving catch (the fourth just like this) by always in position Micah Hyde. One was good hit on ST and Milano ripping ball away. And last was Easton just being a center fielder when everyone was covered and the pass went right to him. They are forcing the turnovers.

I would think so They rip and punch the ball out and pick off forced deep balls, but yes, luck.

Dragonborn10 Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Fumbles are as much chance as they are good play simply based on the issue of who recovers the ball. Bills got lucky on the fumbled PR. Our plyaer was OOB. But Oakland was just as luck to recover the KO. INTs on the other hand is a sign of good defense. Just get a little better pass rush. And the turnovers will keep coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Putin Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 This was a convincing Win , we pretty much dominated in the second half on defense and we run the ball at will , Tyrod didn't have big numbers by he played well , when was the last time that we couldn't decide who should get a game ball ?
