Did you know that the Bills are 4th in the NFL in takeaways?


Recommended Posts

Sal was talking about it this morning on the morning show.  The Bills are actually tied for 4th in the league with 14 takeaways....tied with several other teams but still.

Doesn't that seem weird?  I wouldn't have guessed this at all.  I really would have guessed we were probably in the bottom 10.

Did you also know that otters hold hands when they sleep in the water so they don't drift away from each other?

Yeah, it's kind of surprising. I knew we were doing better than last year, but that isnt saying much.

 

I also need to look up where we rank in turnover differential. One of the biggest steps Josh has taken this year has been cutting out the turnovers. Even with those big numbers he put up last Sunday, the most impressive number was 0. No INTs, No Fumbles. Especially with getting sacked so many times.

top ten in sacks as well. we'll see where we end up after our bye week but it should still be close to top ten..... i can deal with the yards being given if they can keep finding ways to turn it over and get home on the qb.

 

The first turnover from our big 3...Hyde, Poyer and White came this past weekend.  Hyde still is waiting.

We had 4 TOs against Seattle, right? 2 INTs and 2 Fumbles.

 

Not to be a Debbie Downer, but that one feast game kinda skews our stats and standing. Without them, we'd be -1 in TO differential. Which is more indicative of our overall performance.

Absolutely. We are what our record and stats say we are. That's usually how I feel 99.999% of the time.

 

But anomalies do get thrown out in stats and analytics for a reason. Just something to keep in mind.

 

Now, if we string together a few more +4 TO games, then that will really be something.

I hear you. All I will say is, the same goes for every team in the league though. Its not like we are the only team that has 4 TO games in their stats.
