    Dropped Passes

    Why is it that in every close game, Bills' WRs/TEs/RBs who are usually sure handed, manage to drop key passes that would've been first downs? It's so frustrtating, and it happened with Losman at QB as well. When the ball hits your hands, you have to catch it. Period.

    I remember Lynch dropping 2, at least one of them would've been a first down. I can't remember the others, but I know there was at least one other 1st down dropped (Reed maybe?).

    These are the plays that make teams 1-4 instead of 4-1.

        The only two dropped passes that stand out in mind are the ones by McGee for interceptions.

          TO was stripped a few times, not so much dropped

            I know you hate him, but only one was possible. TO hit his hand on the first one. The second one bounced off his chest and he didn't bring his hands up fast enough to catch it. The kid took on Jones, Hurd, TO and another guy, and did a fine job. Plus he was tackling quite a few guys and assisting tackles as well. He wasn't just a kick returner like everyone says. He did his job completely, and very good.

              McGee also dropped a sure INT.

                      yet he was able to make the same INT against Chad.

                      nobody is denying how good as a kick reurner he is but as a cb, he's inconsistent as can be. the great ones will make you pay for your mistakes. McGee keeps giving them a 2nd chance. How many dropped would be ints did he have against Denver? 2.

                        Let's just agree to disagree. It wasn't MaGee who lost the game. Trent's INT hurt more than that dropped pick.

                          I am not disagreeing with this. You couldn't ask more from the D last night.

                            They both hurt just as much.

                              no, the INT lost us the game hands down. Had it been JP who threw that pick , you'd be agreeing with me.
