Buffalo Bills Cage Carolina Panthers 20-9

The Buffalo Bills cage Carolina Panthers 20-9 in Charlotte, North Carolina. The Buffalo Bills defense controlled the football game and the Buffalo Bills won there second consecutive road football by defeating the Carolina Panthers in a unlikley fashion. The Bills defense was opportunistic again this week coming up with four Carolina Panthers turnovers after last week against Jets the Bills had six turnovers.The Bills Defense gave up 425 total yards to the Panthers but that did not matter because the Bills created the turnovers that determined the football game.The Panthers starting quarterback Jake Delhomme finished the game 27/44 325 yd.3 int. The Bills scored quickly after a Jake Delhomme first interception Marshawn Lynch scored on a 7 yd. touchdown run which gave the Bills a 7-0 first quarter lead. This was the Bills first rushing touchdown since the Chargers game last year. Marshawn finished the game with 17 car. 40 yd. and the Bills only had 53 total yards rushing for the game. The Panthers got right back in the game when Fred Jackson was tackled in the end zone by H. Thomas. The Bills lead was cut to 7-2 at halftime. The Bills increased there lead early in the fourth quarter after another Jake Delhomme interception with a 6 play 27 yards drive that was capped of by a Ryan Fitzpatrick 2 yd. touchdown pass to Lee Evans. Lee Evans finished the game with 5 rec. 75 yards and one touchdown. This is the second straight week Lee Evans has scored a important touchdown. This Bills added a Rian Lindell field goal after a 5 play 55 yards to increase there lead to 17-2. the key play to the drive was a deep pass down the right sideline for 50 yards to Lee Evans. The Panthers finally, scored a touchdown after a Steve Smith 48 yards reception which set up a DeAngleo Williams 15 yd. touchdown run which cut the Bills lead to 17-9. The Panthers had a chance to tie the football game but, K. Moore muffed the punt by Brian Moorman and it was recovered by Derek Fine. The Bills scores on a 7 play 16 yards Drive 3:19 which was capped off by a Rian Lindell 22 yard field goal.The Bills had a commanding 20-9 lead which finished the Carolina Panthers comeback. The Bills finished the football game with only 167 total yards. Ryan Fitzpatrick managed the football game going 11/22 123 yards 1 td. The star of the Football game is Jarius Byrd who had two interceptions again this week and George Wilson also, had another interception this week. This tandem could be the future of the Bills defensive backfield. I will give the Bills some credit for showing some character after losing to the Cleveland Browns 6-3. The question over the next two weeks is who is going to be the Bills starting quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick or Trent Edwards.
